Changing target vehicles and
automatic braking with Pilot Assist
At certain speeds, Pilot Assist can change target
vehicles and automatically apply the brakes.
Changing target vehicles
If the target vehicle turns suddenly, there may be a sta-
tionary vehicle ahead
When Pilot Assist is actively following another
vehicle at speeds under 20 mph (30 km/h) and
changes targets from a moving vehicle to a sta-
tionary one, the system will brake for the station-
ary vehicle.
WARNING
If Pilot Assist changes targets from a moving
vehicle to a stationary one at speeds above
20 mph (30 km/h), the system will not react
to the stationary vehicle and will accelerate to
the previously set speed.
The driver must actively apply the brakes to
slow/stop the vehicle.
Automatic standby mode when changing
targets
Pilot Assist disengages and goes into standby
mode if:
•
your vehicle's speed goes below approx.
3 mph (5 km/h) and Pilot Assist cannot
determine if the target object is a stationary
vehicle or some other type of object such as
a speed bump, etc
•
the vehicle's speed goes below approx.
3 mph (5 km/h) and the vehicle ahead
changes lanes or turns so that Pilot Assist
no longer has a target vehicle to follow
Auto-hold brake function
In slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stop-
ped at a traffic light, driving will resume automati-
cally if the vehicle is not stopped for more than
approx. 3 seconds. If it takes more than
3 seconds for the vehicle ahead to begin moving
again, Pilot Assist will go into standby mode and
the auto-hold brake function will activate.
