DRIVER ASSISTANCE
WARNING: The autonomous
emergency braking system can
help prevent a collision or reduce
the speed of collision impact,
but you should always apply
the brakes, even if auto-braking
intervenes.
WARNING: You are always
responsible for maintaining the
correct speed and distance in
relation to the vehicle ahead.
Never wait for a collision warning
or for the autonomous emergency
braking system to intervene.
To function, both systems use the front
camera and radar which have general
limitations, see page 124.
