Sensitivity of the function can be adjusted
only when ACC is disengaged. Adjust as
follows:
• Using the steering wheel ACC buttons,
press the gap decrease button to
display the current setting in the
Message centre and then press again
to decrease the sensitivity of the alert.
• Press the gap increase button to
display the current setting in the
Message centre and then press again
to increase the sensitivity of the alert.
FWD ALERT <----> is displayed in the
Message centre.
Note: The Forward alert set gap is
retained when the ignition is switched off.
ADVANCED EMERGENCY
BRAKE ASSIST
The system may not react to slow
moving vehicles and will not react
to stationary vehicles or vehicles
travelling in the opposite direction.
Warnings may not appear if the
distance to the vehicle ahead is very
small or if steering wheel or pedal
movements are large (e.g., to avoid
a collision).
The system utilises the same radar
sensor as Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) and Forward alert - the same
limitations of performance apply.
Advanced emergency brake assist is only
fitted on vehicles with ACC, and will
function even if ACC and Forward alert
are switched off.
Advanced emergency brake assist is
available at speeds above approximately
7 km/h (5 mph). It improves braking
response during emergency braking, when
a moving vehicle is detected close ahead.
If the risk of a collision increases after the
FORWARD ALERT warning is displayed,
Advanced emergency brake assist is
activated. The brakes are automatically
applied gently in preparation for rapid
braking (this may be noticeable). If the
brake pedal is then pressed quickly, full
braking is implemented, even if only light
pressure is applied to the pedal. See 114,
EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST (EBA).
Note: Braking performance will only be
improved if the driver applies the brakes.
If there is a fault with the system,
FORWARD ALERT UNAVAILABLE is
displayed in the Message centre. The
vehicle can still be driven and the braking
system will still operate, but without
Advanced emergency brake assistance.
Consult a Retailer/Authorised Repairer to
have the fault rectified.
INTELLIGENT EMERGENCY
BRAKING
The system may not react to slow
moving vehicles.
The system will not react to
stationary vehicles or vehicles that
are not travelling in the same
direction as your vehicle.
Warnings and automatic braking
may not occur if the distance to
the vehicle ahead is very small, or
if the steering wheel and pedal
movements are large (e.g., to
avoid a collision).
