If the camera has confirmed
the presence of a vehicle or a
pedestrian, this warning lamp
flashes once the function is acting
on the vehicle's brakes.

vehicle's braking system.
Important : if operation of the
automatic emergency braking is

may be adjusted according to the driving
actions from the driver, such as movement
of the steering wheel or pressing the
accelerator pedal.
Operation of the function may be felt by
slight vibration in the brake pedal.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
the automatic braking is maintained for 1

automatic emergency braking until the
vehicle comes to a complete stop, the
engine may stall.
