04 Driver support
Collision warning with Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detection*
04
172
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
NOTE
If warnings are given too frequently, the
warning distance can be reduced (see
page 170). This causes the system to pro-
vide later warnings, which decreases the
total number of warnings provided.
WARNING
•
The system is not activated at speeds
under approx. 2 mph (4 km/h). There-
fore, it will not brake your vehicle if you
approach a vehicle ahead at very low
speed, such as when parking.
•
The driver's actions always have high-
est priority and override the Collision
Warning system. This means that the
system will not intervene in situations
where the driver is actively steering,
braking or pressing the accelerator
pedal, even if a collision is imminent.
•
When Auto-brake has prevented a col-
lision with a stationary object, your
vehicle will remain at a standstill for
approx. 1.5 seconds. If your vehicle
has been braked for a moving vehicle
ahead, your vehicle's speed will be
reduced to the same speed as that
vehicle's.
The camera’s limitations
The camera is used by Collision Warning with
Auto-brake, Driver Alert Control (see
page 176), and Lane Departure Warning (see
page 179).
NOTE
•
To help protect the camera in very hot
conditions, it may be temporarily
switched off for approximately 15
minutes after the engine has been
started.
•
Keep the section of the windshield in
front of the camera clean and free of
ice, snow, or condensation.
WARNING
•
The camera has the same limitations
as the human eye. In other words, its
“vision is impaired” by adverse
weather conditions such as heavy
snowfall, dense fog, etc. These condi-
tions may reduce the function of sys-
tems that depend on the camera or
cause these systems to temporarily
stop functioning.
•
Never place any objects, decals, etc.,
on the windshield in front of the cam-
era. This could reduce or block the
camera’s function, and could cause
one or more of the systems that utilize
the camera to stop functioning.
•
Strong sunlight, reflections from the
road surface, ice or snow covering the
road, a dirty road surface, or unclear
lane marker lines may drastically
reduce the camera’s capacity to
detect the side of a lane, a pedestrian
or another vehicle.
