242 Driving and Operating
During nighttime driving, system
performance is very limited. If the
vehicle is equipped with the Night
Vision system, during nighttime
driving, the vehicle can detect and
alert to pedestrians whenever in a
forward gear.

FPB does not provide an alert or
automatically brake the vehicle,
unless it detects a pedestrian.
FPB may not detect pedestrians,
including children:
When the pedestrian is not
directly ahead, fully visible,
or standing upright, or when
part of a group.
Due to poor visibility,
including nighttime

If the FPB sensor is blocked

personalization. See Front
