Rear Pre-Crash Safety system
When the radar sensor detects the possibility of a rear-end colli-
sion, the rear pre-crash safety system will operate to warn the
approaching vehicle and mitigate whiplash.
Warning for the approaching vehicle (emergency flashers)
When the system determines that there is a risk of a rear-end col-
lision, the emergency flashers flash to warn the driver of the
vehicle approaching from the rear.
Whiplash mitigation (pre-crash intelligent head restraints)
When a vehicle draws near from behind and the system has
determined that the possibility of a rear-end collision is very
high, the sensor in each front head restraint detects the position
of the occupant's head and the pre-crash intelligent head restraint
moves, contributing to whiplash mitigation when a rear-end col-
lision occurs.
