WARNING
No automatic system can guarantee 100% correct function in all situations.You should therefore never test use ofCity Safety in the direction of people,animals or vehicles – this could lead tosevere damage, serious personal injuryor even death.
City Safety warns the driver if there is arisk of collision, but the function cannotreduce the driver's reaction time.
Even if the warning distance has been set to
Early, warnings may be per-
ceived as late in certain situations – e.g. when there are large speed differ-ences or if the vehicle ahead suddenlybrakes heavily.
With the warning distance set to
Early,
warnings come further in advance. This may cause the warnings to come morefrequently than with warning distance
Normal, but is recommended since it
can make City Safety more effective.

Detecting obstacles with City Safety
City Safety 78
can help the driver detect other
vehicles, cyclists, large animals and pedes- trians.
VehiclesCity Safety can detect most vehicles that are stationary or are moving in the same directionas your vehicle. In some cases, it can alsodetect oncoming vehicles and crossing traffic. For City Safety to be able to detect a vehicle in the dark, its headlights and taillights must beon and clearly visible.
Cyclists
Examples of what City Safety would interpret to be a cyclist: clear body and bicycle shapes.
For good performance, the system's function for cyclist detection needs the clearest possi-ble information about the contours of the bicy-cle and of the cyclist's head, arm, shoulders,legs, torso and lower body in combinationwith normal human movements. If large portions of the cyclist's body or the bicycle itself are not visible to the function'scamera, it will not be able to detect a cyclist. The system can only detect adult cyclists rid- ing on bicycles intended for adults.
WARNING
City Safety is supplementary driver sup- port, but it cannot detect all cyclists in allsituations and, for example, cannot see:
partially obscured cyclists.
cyclists if the contrast to the cyclist's background is poor.
cyclists in clothing that hides theirbody contour.
bikes loaded with large objects.
Warnings and brake interventions may occur late or not at all. The driver is always responsible for ensuring that the vehicle isdriven correctly and with a safety distance suitable for the speed.

Pedestrians
Examples of what the system considers to be a pedestrian: clear body contours.
For good performance, the system's function for pedestrian detection needs the clearestpossible information about the contours of thepedestrian's head, arm, shoulders, legs, torsoand lower body in combination with normalhuman movements. In order to detect a pedestrian, there must be a contrast to the background, which coulddepend on clothing, weather conditions, etc. Ifthere is little contrast, the person may bedetected late or not at all, which may result ina delayed reaction from the system or no reac-tion at all. City Safety can detect pedestrians even in dark conditions if they are illuminated by thevehicle's headlights.
WARNING
City Safety is supplementary driver sup- port, but it cannot detect all pedestrians inall situations and, for example, cannot see:
partially obscured pedestrians, people in clothing that hides their body con-tour or pedestrians shorter than 80 cm(32 in.).
pedestrians if the contrast to thepedestrian's background is poor.
pedestrians who are carrying largeobjects.
Warnings and brake interventions may occur late or not at all. The driver is alwaysresponsible for ensuring that the vehicle isdriven correctly and with a safety distancesuitable for the speed.
Large animals
Examples of what City Safety would interpret as a large animal: stationary or moving slowly and withclear body contours.
For good performance, the system's function for detecting large animals (e.g. moose,horses, etc.) needs the clearest possible infor-mation about body contours. This entailsbeing able to detect the animal straight fromthe side in combination with normal move-ments for that animal. If parts of the animal's body are not visible to the function's camera, the system will not beable to detect the animal. City Safety can detect large animals even in dark conditions if they are illuminated by thevehicle's headlights.
