EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST
This system is complementary to
ABS and helps reduce vehicle
stopping distances.
Operating principle
The system detects an emergency
braking situation. In this case, the
braking assistance immediately
develops maximum power and may
trigger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long
as the brake pedal is not released.
Hazard warning lights lighting
up
Depending on the vehicle, these
may light up in the event of sudden
deceleration.
This function is an
additional aid in case of
critical driving conditions
to enable the vehicle
behaviour to be adapted to suit the
driving conditions.
However, the function does not
take the place of the driver. It does
not increase the vehicle's limits
and should not encourage you to
drive more quickly.
Therefore, it can under no
circumstances replace the
vigilance or responsibility of the
driver when manoeuvring the
vehicle (the driver must always be
ready for sudden incidents which
may occur when driving).
