FEB SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the FEB system. Failure to operate the ve-
hicle in accordance with these system limi-
tations could result in serious injury or
death.
• The FEB system cannot detect all ve-
hicles under all conditions.
• The radar sensor does not detect the
following objects:
– Pedestrians or animals
– Oncoming vehicles
– Crossing vehicles
• The radar sensor has some performance
limitations. For stationary vehicles, the
FEB system will not function when the
vehicle is driven at speeds over:
–
Approximately 31 MPH (50 km/h) for
the Autonomous braking function.
• The radar sensor may not detect a ve-
hicle ahead in the following conditions:
– Dirt, ice, snow or other material cov-
ering the radar sensor.
– Interference by other radar sources.
– Snow or heavy rain.
– If the vehicle ahead is narrow (e.g.
motorcycle).
– If the vehicle ahead is in a different
lane.
– Under strong radar reflections, for
example, in a multi-level parking ga-
rage.
– New vehicle or after a maintenance
of the FEB system. For additional in-
formation, see "Break-in schedule"
later in this section
– When driving on a steep downhill
slope or roads with sharp curves.
– When towing a trailer.
• In some road or traffic conditions, the
FEB system may intervene unnecessar-
ily or give an unnecessary warning. Al-
ways pay careful attention to the traffic
situation. Do not rely solely on the dis-
tance warning function and terminate
the intervention if necessary.

surfaces.
