Detecting the Pedestrian or Bicyclist
Ahead
FPB alerts and automatic braking will not
occur unless the FPB system detects a
pedestrian or bicyclist. When a pedestrian or
bicyclist that may enter the forward path of
the vehicle is detected, the pedestrian ahead
indicator will display amber.
Front Pedestrian Alert
When the vehicle approaches a pedestrian
or bicyclist ahead too rapidly, the red FPB
alert display will flash on the windshield.
Eight rapid high-pitched beeps will sound
from the front. When this Pedestrian Alert
occurs, the brake 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 bicyclist 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 and bicyclist crashes or
reduce pedestrian injury. FPB can
automatically brake to detected pedestrians
or bicyclists 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.
FPB may slow the vehicle to a complete
stop to try and avoid a potential collision
with a pedestrian. If this happens, automatic
braking may hold the vehicle at a stop
momentarily. Firmly press the accelerator
pedal to continue driving.
Driving and Operating
{
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 bicyclists,
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 settings. To view available settings
for this feature, touch the Settings icon on
the infotainment home page. Select
"Vehicle" to display the list of available
options and select "Collision/Detection
Systems".
Cleaning the System
If FPB does not seem to operate properly,
cleaning the outside of the windshield in
front of the rearview mirror may correct the
issue.
