Automatic Emergency

Braking (AEB)

If equipped, the AEB system
may help avoid or reduce the
harm caused by front-end
crashes. AEB also includes
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA).
When the system detects a
vehicle in the path ahead that
is traveling in the same
direction, and that you may
crash into, it can provide a
boost to braking,
or automatically brake the
vehicle. This can help avoid or
lessen the severity of crashes
when driving in a forward gear.
Depending on the situation,
the vehicle may automatically
brake moderately or hard. This
Automatic Emergency Braking
can only occur if a vehicle is
detected. Vehicle detection is
shown by the Forward
Collision Alert (FCA) vehicle
ahead indicator being lit. See
Forward Collision Alert (FCA)
System 0 342.
The system works when
driving in a forward gear
between 8 km/h (5 mph) and
80 km/h (50 mph), or on
vehicles with Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC), above 4 km/h
(2 mph). It can detect vehicles
up to approximately 60 m
(197 ft).
Warning
AEB is an emergency crash
preparation feature and is
not designed to avoid
crashes. Do not rely on AEB
to brake the vehicle. AEB will
not brake outside of its
operating speed range and
only responds to detected
vehicles.
AEB may not:
Detect a vehicle ahead on
winding or hilly roads.
Detect all vehicles,
especially vehicles with a
trailer, tractors, muddy
vehicles, etc.
(Continued)
Driving and Operating
Warning (Continued)
Detect a vehicle when
weather limits visibility,
such as in fog, rain,
or snow.
Detect a vehicle ahead if it
is partially blocked by
pedestrians or other
objects.
Complete attention is
always required while
driving, and you should be
ready to take action and
apply the brakes and/or
steer the vehicle to avoid
crashes.
AEB may slow the vehicle to a
complete stop to try to avoid a
potential crash. If this
happens, AEB may engage the
Electric Parking Brake (EPB)
to hold the vehicle at a stop.
Release the EPB or firmly
press the accelerator pedal.
