Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) System
The Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) system
assists the driver during reverse maneuvers in
the case of reduced visibility.
When the ABSA system is active, the RCP
system monitors the rear detection areas on
both sides of the vehicle to detect objects
moving towards the sides of the vehicle at a
minimum speed between 0.6 mph and 2 mph
(1 km/h and 3km/h) from objects moving at a
maximum speed of 22 mph (35 km/h).
These are generally occurrences that happen
in parking areas.
The system activation is signaled to the driver
by means of a visual and audible warning.
NOTE:
If the sensors are covered by objects or vehi-
cles, the system may not work as intended.
Changing the system sensitivity
To change the sensitivity and the strength of
the torque intervention on the steering wheel,
refer to “Settings” of the radio system.
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) System
This is a driving assistance system composed
of a radar located behind the front bumper
and a camera located in the center of the
windshield.
Front Bumper Radar Location
Windshield Camera Location
In the event of an imminent collision, the
system intervenes by automatically applying
the vehicle’s brakes to prevent a the collision
or reduce its effects.
The system provides the driver with audible
and visual signals through specific messages
on the instrument cluster display.
The system may lightly brake to warn the driver if
a potential front end collision is detected (limited
braking). Signals and limited braking are
intended to allow the driver time to intervene.
In situations with the risk of collision, if the
system detects no intervention by the driver, it
provides automatic braking to help slow the
vehicle and mitigate the potential front end colli-
sion (automatic braking). If intervention by the
driver on the brake pedal is detected, but not
deemed sufficient, the system may intervene in
order to improve the reaction of the braking
system by reducing vehicle speed further (addi-
tional assistance in braking stage).
