0 253.
The FPB system can detect and alert
to pedestrians and cyclists in a
forward gear at speeds between
8 km/h (5 mph) and 80 km/h
(50 mph). During daytime driving, the
system detects pedestrians up to a
distance of approximately 40 m
(131 ft). During night-time driving,
system performance is very limited.
Warning
FPB does not provide an alert or
automatically brake the vehicle,
unless it detects a pedestrian or
cyclist. FPB may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
or cyclists:
When the pedestrian or cyclist is
not directly ahead, fully visible,
or standing upright, or when part
of a group.
Due to poor visibility, including
night-time conditions, mist, rain,
or snow.
Warning (Continued)
If the FPB sensor is blocked by
dirt, snow, or ice.
If the headlights or windscreen
are not cleaned or in proper
condition.
Be ready to take action and apply
the brakes. For more information,
see Defensive Driving 0 191. Keep
the windscreen, headlights, and FPB
sensor clean and in good repair.
FPB can be set to Off, Alert, or Alert
and Brake through vehicle
personalisation. See Collision/
Detection Systems under Vehicle
Personalisation 0 121.
Detecting the Pedestrian Ahead
