the driver operates the brakepedal.
If the driver releases the accelera- tor after warning in hazardous situ-
ations, the AVSM automatically
brakes the vehicle gently.
If the driver hits the brake to reduce vehicle speed, the brake assistant
system operates to raise efficiency
of braking.
If danger disappears, if the driver depresses the accelerator or if the
driver releases the brake pedal,
the brake operating stop.
