measures independently of each other:
R Tightening the seat belts on the driver's seat
and front passenger seat.
R Activating there ar hazard warning lights at a

collision or evenavo id it.
If an accident is de tected, the post-collision brake
can implement automatic braking. When theve hi-
cle has come toa standstill, the electric parking
brake is automatically applied.
The driver can cancel automatic braking bytaking
