hazards. Audible alerts may be selected instead.

indicator is green when a vehicle is detected ahead that you're

steering wheel to set the alert timing to Far, Medium, or
Near.
AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING – The system works
with Forward Collision Alert to help you avoid or reduce the
severity of front-end collisions with a detected vehicle you're
following. The system works at speeds below 50 mph. Camera
technology is used to automatically provide hard emergency
braking or enhance the driver's hard braking.
FRONT PEDESTRIAN BRAKING – During daytime driving
below 50 mph, the system can detect pedestrians directly
ahead and displays an amber indicator. When approaching
a detected pedestrian too quickly, a red alert flashes on the
windshield and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or rapid beeps
sound (if selected). The system may automatically provide
hard emergency braking or enhance the driver's hard braking.
