Autonomous Emergency Braking and
Forward Collision Warning Limitations
To function, both systems use the
front camera and radar, and may have
limited or reduced functionality in
certain situations:
– Slippery driving conditions:
The extended braking distance
on slippery roads may reduce
Autonomous emergency braking
capacity to help avoid a collision.
– Strong external lighting: Strong
sunlight, reflections, extreme light
contrast may make the visual
warning signal difficult to see,
limiting the ability of the camera to
detect vehicles or pedestrians.
– Cabin temperature: If the
temperature in the cabin is very
high, the camera may be temporarily
turned off and warnings may not be
given.
– Poor weather: Intense snowfall,
blowing snow, rain, dense fog and
dusty conditions on the windscreen
and front bumper may reduce the
system’s functional visibility.
– Limited field of vision: The camera
and radar have a limited field
of vision and in some situations
they may not detect a vehicle or
pedestrian until later than expected
or not detect them at all.
– Reversing: The system is deactivated
while the vehicle is reversing.
– Low vehicle speed: The system will
not be triggered if your vehicle speed
is under approx. 7 mph.
– Active driver: The system may not
react or react later than expected
in situations where you actively
operate/brake the vehicle.
WARNING: Autonomous
emergency braking pedestrian
detection cannot detect:
– Pedestrians who are partially
obscured, wearing clothing that
prevents a clear view of the
person’s body contours.
– Pedestrians who have limited
contrast to their immediate
background. A warning or
braking may be delayed or not
activated at all.
– Pedestrian carrying large
objects.
You are always responsible for
driving the vehicle safely.
WARNING: Warnings will only be
provided if the risk of a collision
risk is probable or imminent. You
should be aware of the system’s
limitations before operating the
vehicle.
WARNING: Warnings and
automatic braking for pedestrians
are deactivated above a vehicles
speed of 50 mph.
