* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
•
The function's capacity to detect cyclists
is deactivated when driving in darkness
and tunnels - even when streetlights are
lit.
•
For optimum bicycle detection, the City
Safety™ function must be activated, see
City Safety™ (p. 222).
WARNING
Collision Warning with Auto Brake &
Cyclist Detection is a means of assistance.
The function cannot detect:
•
all cyclists in all situations and does
not see partially obscured cyclists, for
example.
•
cyclists in clothing that obscures the
contours of the body or who are
approaching from the side.
•
bicycles that have no rearward-facing
red reflector.
•
bicycles loaded with large objects.
The driver is always responsible that the
vehicle is driven properly and with a safety
distance adapted to the speed.

Collision warning system* - detection
of pedestrians
Optimal examples of what the system regards as
pedestrians with clear body contours.
Optimal performance of the system requires
that the system function that detects pedes-
trians receives as unambiguous information
as possible about the contours of the body -
this implies the opportunity to identify the
head, arms, shoulders, legs, upper and lower
body combined with a normal human pattern
of movement.
If large parts of the body are not visible to the
function's camera then the system cannot
detect a pedestrian.
•
In order for a pedestrian to be detected
he/she must appear full-length and have
a height of at least 80 cm.
•
The camera sensor's ability to see pedes-
trians at dusk and dawn is limited - just
like the human eye.
•
The camera sensor's capacity to detect
pedestrians is deactivated when driving in
darkness and tunnels - even when street-
lights are lit.
WARNING
"Collision Warning with Auto Brake and
Cyclist and Pedestrian Detection" is a
means of assistance. The function cannot
detect all pedestrians in all situations and
does not see, for example:
•
partially obscured pedestrians, people
in clothing that hides their body con-
tour or pedestrians shorter than
80 cm.
•
pedestrians who are carrying larger
objects.
The driver is always responsible that the
vehicle is driven properly and with a safety
distance adapted to the speed.
