276 Driving and Operating
When the vehicle approaches
a pedestrian ahead too rapidly,
the red FPB alert display will
flash on the windshield. Eight
rapid high-pitched beeps will
sound from the front, or both
sides of the Safety Alert Seat
will pulse five times. When this
Pedestrian Alert occurs, the
brake system may prepare for
driver braking to occur more
rapidly which can cause a
brief, mild deceleration.
Continue to apply the brake
pedal as needed. Cruise
control may be disengaged
when the Front Pedestrian
Alert occurs.
Automatic Braking
If FPB detects it is about to
crash into a pedestrian
directly ahead, and the brakes
have not been applied, FPB
may automatically brake
moderately or brake hard. This
can help to avoid some very
low speed pedestrian crashes
or reduce pedestrian injury.
FPB can automatically braketo detected pedestrians
between 8 km/h (5 mph) and
80 km/h (50 mph). Automatic
braking levels may be reduced
under certain conditions, such
as higher speeds.
If this happens, Automatic
Braking may engage the
Electric Parking Brake (EPB)
to hold the vehicle at a stop.
Release the EPB. A firm press
of the accelerator pedal will
also release Automatic
Braking and the EPB.
If equipped with the Night
Vision system, pedestrians
detected by the Night Vision
system will not cause
automatic braking to occur.{Warning
FPB may alert or
automatically brake the
vehicle suddenly in
situations where it is
unexpected and undesired.
It could falsely alert or brake
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
for objects similar in shape
or size to pedestrians,
including shadows. This is
normal operation and the
vehicle does not need
service. To override
Automatic Braking, firmly
press the accelerator pedal,
if it is safe to do so.
Automatic Braking can be
disabled through vehicle
personalization. To view
available settings for this
feature, touch the Settings
icon on the infotainment home
page. Select “Vehicle”to
display the list of available
options and select “Collision/
Detection Systems”.
Cleaning the System
If FPB does not seem to
operate properly, cleaning the
outside of the windshield in
front of the rearview mirror
may correct the issue.

{Warning
You can lose control when

equipment is not used or the
vehicle is not driven
properly. For example, if the

inadequate for the load, the
vehicle may not stop as
expected. You and others
could be seriously injured.
The vehicle may also be
damaged, and the repairs
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Pull a
trailer only if all the steps in
