Driving and Operating
If Head-Up Display (HUD) is
equipped and the screen is closed,
when the vehicle approaches a
pedestrian ahead too rapidly, the
HUD with the integrated RLAD can
display red spots reflected in the
windshield.
If Head-Up Display (HUD) is
equipped and the screen is open,
when the vehicle approaches a
pedestrian ahead too rapidly, the
HUD can display indicator on the
screen.
Eight rapid high-pitched beeps will
sound from the front. 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 brake to 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.
Warning
FPB may alert or automatically
brake the vehicle suddenly in
situations where it is unexpected
and undesired. It could falsely
alert or brake 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. See
Front Pedestrian Detection in
Collision/Detection Systems under
Vehicle Personalization 0 135.
