ACTIVE EMERGENCY BRAKING (5/7)

Active emergency braking

This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due care

and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle. The triggering of this function may be

delayed or prevented when the system detects clear signs of control of the vehicle by the driver (action on the steer-

ing wheel, pedals etc.).

The system cannot be activated:

- when the gear lever is in neutral position or the clutch pedal has been depressed for ten seconds;

- when the parking brake is activated;

- when the Electronic Stability Program (ESC) has started.

System servicing/repairs

- In the event of an impact, the radar and/or camera may become misaligned and their service may be affected. Deactivate

the function and contact an Approved Dealer.

- Any work in the area where the radar and/or camera is located (repairs, replacements, windscreen modifications, etc.) must

be carried out by a qualified professional.

Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.

2.27

CarManuals2.co

ACTIVE EMERGENCY BRAKING (6/7)

System disturbance

Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such as:

- a complex environment (metal bridge, tunnel etc.);

- poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice etc.);

- poor visibility (night, fog etc.);

- poor contrast between the object (vehicle, pedestrian etc.) and the surrounding area (e.g. pedestrian dressed in white lo-

cated in a snowy area etc.);

- being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposite direction etc.);

- windscreen obscured (by dirt, ice, snow, condensation etc.);

- ...

In these conditions, the system may not react or may brake inadvertently.

Limitation of the system operation

- Each time the vehicle is started, the system carries out a calibration according to the vehicle surroundings and may be inac-

tive for a length of time between approximately two and five minutes;

- A vehicle travelling in the opposite direction will not trigger any alert or affect operation of the system;

- The radar and camera zones must be kept clean and free of any tampering in order to ensure the proper operation of the

system;

- The system may not respond to small vehicles such as motorbikes as effectively as to other vehicles;

- The system may not operate optimally when the road surface is slippery (rain, snow, black ice etc.);

- To ensure correct operation, the system needs to distinguish the complete outline of the pedestrian. So the system cannot

detect:

- pedestrians in the darkness or in poor lighting conditions;

- partially visible pedestrians:

- pedestrians less than approximately 80 cm tall;

- pedestrians carrying large objects;

- ...

In these conditions, the system may not react or may brake inadvertently.

2.28

CarManuals2.co

ACTIVE EMERGENCY BRAKING (7/7)

Deactivating the function

You must disable the function if:

- the brake lights are not functioning;

- the camera area has been damaged (e.g. on the inside or outside of the windscreen);

- the front of the vehicle was damaged (impact, distortion, scratch on the radar etc.);

- the vehicle is being towed (breakdowns);

- the windscreen is cracked or distorted (do not carry out windscreen repairs in this area; have it changed by an approved

dealer);

- you are not driving on a paved road.

In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.

Halting the function

You can halt the active braking function at any time by tapping the accelerator pedal or by turning the steering wheel in a col-

lision avoidance manoeuvre.
