Smart Brake Support (SBS)
The SBS system alerts the driver of a possible collision using a display and
warning sound if the radar sensor (front) and the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
determine that there is the possibility of a collision with a vehicle ahead while the
vehicle is being driven at about 15 km/h or faster (10 mph or faster).
Furthermore, if the radar sensor (front) and the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
determines that a collision is unavoidable, the automatic brake control is
performed to reduce damage in the event of a collision.
In addition, when the driver depresses the brake pedal, the brakes are applied
firmly and quickly to assist. (Brake Assist (SBS brake assist)).
Do not rely completely on the SBS system and always drive carefully:
The SBS is designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision, not avoid
an accident. The ability to detect an obstruction is limited depending on the
obstruction, weather conditions, or traffic conditions. Therefore, if the
accelerator pedal or brake pedal is mistakenly operated it could result in an
accident. Always verify the safety of the surrounding area and depress the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal while keeping a safer distance from vehicles
ahead or on-coming vehicles.
