312 STARTING AND OPERATING
• If the driver does not take action based upon these
progressive warnings, then the system will provide a
limited level of active braking to help slow the vehicle
and mitigate the potential forward collision. If the
driver reacts to the warnings by braking and the
system determines that the driver intends to avoid the
collision by braking but has not applied sufficient
brake force, the system will compensate and provide
additional brake force as required.
Vehicles With A Manual Transmission: After the end of
the intervention of automatic braking, the engine could
stall, unless the driver can depress the clutch pedal.
Vehicles With Automatic Transmission: After the end of
the intervention of automatic braking, the transmission
may remain in last gear stored: therefore the car could
lurch forward, once the brakes release a few seconds
later. If the Brake Control event stops the vehicle com-
pletely, the system will hold the vehicle at standstill for
two seconds and then release the brakes.
If a Brake Control event begins at a speed below 20 mph
(32 km/h), the system may provide the maximum brak-
ing possible to mitigate the potential forward collision. If
the Brake Control event stops the vehicle completely, the
system will hold the vehicle at standstill for two seconds
and then release the brakes.
