DRIVING AND OPERATING
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 or cyclist 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 or cyclists,
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 personalisation. See
Front Pedestrian Detection in
Collision/Detection Systems under
Vehicle Personalisation 0 121.
Warning
Using the Front Pedestrian Braking
system while towing a trailer could
cause you to lose control of the
vehicle and crash. Turn the system
to Alert or Off when towing a
trailer.
Cleaning the System
If FPB does not seem to operate
properly, cleaning the outside of the
windscreen in front of the rear-view
mirror may correct the issue.
Side Blind Zone
Alert (SBZA)
If equipped, the SBZA system is a
lane-changing aid that assists drivers
to avoid a collision with vehicles
moving in the side blind zone, or blind
spot areas. When the vehicle is in a
forward gear, the left or right side
mirror display will light up if a moving
vehicle is detected in that blind zone.
If the indicator is activated and a
vehicle is also detected on the same
side, the display will flash as an extra
warning not to change lanes. Since
this system is part of the Lane Change
Alert (LCA) system, read the entire
LCA section before using this feature.
