E156130
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching another
stationary vehicle, a vehicle traveling in the
same direction as yours, or a pedestrian
within your driving path, the system is
designed to provide three levels of
functionality:
1. Alert
2. Brake Support
3. Active Braking
E156131
Alert: When activated, a red warning light
flashes, an audible warning chime sounds
and a warning message shows in the
information display.
Brake Support: Assists the driver in reducing
collision speed by preparing the brake
system for rapid braking. Brake support does
not automatically activate the brakes, but if
the brake pedal is pressed even lightly by
the driver, brake support could add
additional braking up to full force.
Active Braking: Active braking may activate
if the system determines that a collision is
imminent. The system may help the driver
reduce impact damage or avoid the crash
completely.
Note: If you perceive Pre-Collision Assist
alerts as being too frequent or disturbing,
then you can reduce the alert sensitivity,
though the manufacturer recommends using
the highest sensitivity setting where possible.
Setting lower sensitivity would lead to fewer
and later system warnings.
Adjusting the Pre-Collision Assist Settings
You can adjust the Pre-Collision Assist
settings by using the information display
control. See General Information (page 109).
If required, you can switch active braking off
using the information display control. See
General Information (page 109).
Note: Active braking automatically turns on
every time you switch the ignition on.
