Intelligent emergency braking
uses the same radar sensor as
Adaptive cruise control and
Forward alert. The same
limitations of performance apply.
See 129, ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL OVERVIEW.
Intelligent Emergency Braking (IEB) is only
fitted on vehicles with Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC), and will function even if
ACC and Forward alert are switched off.
The purpose of the IEB feature is to
reduce the impact speed with a slower
vehicle ahead when a collision becomes
unavoidable.
The IEB feature will be available at all
speeds.
If an imminent risk of collision occurs, an
audible warning is given. If a collision
becomes unavoidable, IEB will apply the
brakes at up to maximum pressure. After
IEB has activated, IEB System Was
Activated is displayed in the Message
centre and the system is inhibited from
further operation until reset by a Retailer/
Authorised Repairer.
Note: The distance required to slow or
stop the vehicle is dependent on the
condition of the vehicle's tyres and the
current road surface.
If the radar sensor is blocked by snow or
heavy rain for example, or there is a fault
with the system, IEB Not Available is
displayed in the Message centre. The
vehicle can still be driven and the braking
system will still operate, but without IEB.
If the radar sensor is not considered to be
blocked, consult a Retailer/Authorised
Repairer.
