3. Active Braking
E255268
Alert: When active, a flashing visual
warning appears and an audible warning
tone sounds.
Brake support: The system is designed
to help reduce the impact speed by
preparing the brakes for rapid braking.
Brake support does not automatically
apply the brakes. If you press the brake
pedal, the system could apply additional
braking up to maximum braking force, even
if you lightly press the brake pedal.
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: Brake support and active braking are
active at speeds up to 75 mph (120 km/h).
If the vehicle is equipped with a radar
sensor, included with adaptive cruise
control, then brake support and active
braking are active up to the maximum speed
of the vehicle.
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.
Note: The system turns off when you select
the deep snow/sand drive mode.
Distance Indication and Alert (If
Equipped)
This feature provides the driver with a
graphical indication of the time gap to
other preceding vehicles traveling in the
same direction. The information display
screen shows one of the graphics that
follow.
E254791
Note: Distance indication and alert
deactivates and the graphics do not display
when adaptive cruise control is active.
