accident or material damage. Observe the in‐
formation on the system limits and intervene
actively if necessary.

Warning function for
pedestrians
Principle
In the urban speed range, the system warns of
possible risk of collision with pedestrians and bi‐
cycle riders and may brake independently. If an
accident cannot be avoided, the system helps to
reduce the collision speed.
General
Sensors detect the traffic situation on a straight
distance.
Sensors detect the traffic situation when turning.
The system issues a warning of a possible risk of
collision with pedestrians at speeds above ap‐
prox. 5 km/h/3 mph.
