SMART CITY BRAKE SUPPORT (SCBS) SYSTEM
(if equipped)
The SCBS system is designed to reduce damage in the event of a
collision by applying the brakes when the system’s laser sensor detects
a vehicle ahead.
The system operates when the vehicle speed is 2 to
18 mph (4 to 30 km/h) and the system determines that a collision with
a vehicle ahead is unavoidable.
NOTE:
• It may be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between
your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is less than 9 mph (15 km/h).
• When the driver depresses the brake pedal while the system is in the
operation range between 2 to 18 mph (4 to 30 km/h), the brakes are
applied firmly and quickly to assist. (SCBS Automatic Brake is displayed
in the active driving display.)
• SCBS automatic brake is released approximately 2 seconds after the
vehicle comes to a stop.
• Refer to your Owner’s Manual for complete details.
WARNING: SCBS is only a supplementary
system to reduce damage in the event of a
collision , however the SCBS has limitations.
Do not rely solely on the SCBS . Always keep
your eyes on the road .
NOTE: SCBS system can be
turned off using Safety Settings
in the infotainment system.
