Pedestrians
The system cannot identify all pedestrians
The Collision Warning system can only iden-
tify and detect a pedestrian who is standing
upright. This person can be standing still,
walking or running.
This means that the system has to be able to
identify a person's head, arms, shoulders,
legs, the upper and lower parts of the body
and a person's pattern of movement when
walking or running.
If parts of the body are not visible to the cam-
era, the system cannot detect the pedestrian.
The following conditions apply:
•
In order to detect a pedestrian, the sys-
tem must have a full view of the person's
entire body and the person must be at
least 32 in. (80 cm) tall.
•
The system cannot detect a pedestrian
carrying a large object.
•
The camera's capacity to see a pedes-
trian at dawn or dusk is limited, much as
it is for the human eye.
•
The camera's function is deactivated and
will not detect a pedestrian in darkness or
in tunnels, even if there is street lighting in
the area.
WARNING
•
Collision Warning with Full Auto-brake
and Pedestrian Detection is designed
to be a supplementary driving aid. It is
not, however, intended to replace the
driver's attention and judgement. The
driver is always responsible for operat-
ing the vehicle in a safe manner.
•
The system cannot detect all pedes-
trians in all situations, such as in dark-
ness/at night and cannot detect parti-
ally hidden pedestrians, people who
are less than approx. 32 in. (80 cm)
tall, or people wearing clothing that
obscures the contours of their bodies.
Fault tracing and actions
If the message Windscreen Sensors
blocked is displayed, this means that the
camera is obscured and cannot detect
pedestrians, vehicles or road marker lines in
front of the vehicle.
This, in turn, means that Collision Warning
with Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detec-
tion, Lane Departure Warning, and Driver
Alert Control will not have full functionality.
The table lists possible causes for this mes-
sage being displayed, and suitable actions.
