next time, system is activated.
System limitations
Forward collision alert is designed to
warn on vehicles, but may react also to other objects.
In the following cases, forward
collision alert may not detect a vehicle ahead or sensor performance is
limited:
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● driving during nighttime
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow● the sensor in the windscreen orthe radar unit behind the front
bumper are blocked by snow, ice,
slush, mud, dirt etc.
● the windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers
Front pedestrian protection Front pedestrian protection may help
to avoid or reduce the harm caused
by front-end crashes with pedestrians when driving forward.The system uses the front camera in
the windscreen and depending on the vehicle configuration a radar unit inthe front bumper to detect a
pedestrian directly ahead in the path.9 Warning
The usage of a license plate
support may have an impact on
the proper operation of the radar
unit and may limit sensor
perfomance. Vehicles or
pedestrians driving or walking
ahead may not be detected by the
system.
Do not use a a license plate
support to ensure proper system
functionality.
Front pedestrian protection can
detect and alert to pedestrians in a
forward gear at speeds between
3 mph and 37 mph. Additionally, front pedestrian protection can provide a
boost to braking or automatically
brake the vehicle.
During nighttime driving, system
performance is limited.
Driving and operating1379Danger
Front pedestrian braking does not
provide an alert or automatically
brake the vehicle, unless it detects
a pedestrian.
The system may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
when the pedestrian is not directly ahead, not fully visible, not
standing upright, or when part of a
group.
The system can only be deactivated
by deactivating the active emergency braking in the vehicle personalisation
3 76. When ignition is switched on
next time, system is activated.
Front pedestrian alert When approaching a detected
pedestrian too quickly, a warning
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre. A warning chime
is provided.
Cruise control or adaptive cruise control may be disengaged when the
front pedestrian alert occurs.
System limitations
In the following cases, front
pedestrian protection may not detect
a pedestrian ahead or sensor
performance is limited:
● vehicle speed is out of range from
3 mph to 50 mph in forward gear
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● driving in the dark
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● the sensor in the windscreen or the radar unit behind the front
bumper are blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt etc.
● the windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers
● the front bumper is damaged or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
