OPERATION

Emergency braking system

Advanced Emergency Braking System Principle of operation If your vehicle is rapidly approaching another stationary vehicle or a vehicle traveling in the same direction as yours, and if the Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS) detects that a rear end collision situation gets imminent with a motor vehicle ahead, the system is designed to provide two levels of functionality: 1. Collision warning 2. Emergency braking Collision Warning: If the system determines that a collision is imminent, AEBS warning lamp flashes, an intermittent warning tone sounds, and a warning message pops-up in the information display. In order to make the warning more audible, systemmutes radio and stops the blowers of air conditioning system until the end of the warning. If the system detects that you still do not take control of your vehicle to avoid the accident and collision is still found to be imminent, AEBS may apply partial braking along with acoustical and optical warnings to further draw your attention.

Emergency Braking: If the collision is still found to be imminent, the systemmay apply full braking to reduce the impact damage or avoid the crash completely. Note: AEBS is not active if you are driving below 15kph. Note: AEBS will not warn or brake if the relative speed between your vehicle and the lead vehicle is below 10kph. Note: Deactivation of the ESP feature via the ESP switch will deactivate the AEBS as well. WARNING Note: If the AEBS warning lamp is constantly ON, this means either system is deactivated by the driver, or AEBS shut off due to an error. In this case, AEBS is OFF. The system will not warn or intervene. WARNING If you receive an AEBS warning, which means a rear-end collision is imminent, always apply brakes yourself to avoid the accident and try to take evasive action. Failure to take care may result in the loss of control of your vehicle, serious personal injury or death.

AEB System is a collision avoidance system. However, AEB System is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. AEB system has its own limitations for certain traffic scenarios. Note that AEB systemmight not work in all conditions as expected. The system does not relieve you of your responsibility to drive with due care and attention. Failure to take care may result in the loss of control of your vehicle, serious personal injury or death. AEBS is not able to guess other drivers' intentions. Always maintain a safe distance with the vehicle in front of you. Failure to take care may result in the loss of control of your vehicle, serious personal injury or death.
