could lurch forward, once the brakes release a few
seconds later. If the Brake Control event stops the
vehicle completely, the system will hold the vehicle at
standstill for two seconds and then release the brakes.
If a Brake Control event begins at a speed below 20 mph
(32 km/h), the system may provide the maximum
braking possible to mitigate the potential forward col-
lision. If the Brake Control event stops the vehicle
completely, the system will hold the vehicle at standstill
for two seconds and then release the brakes.
Brake Control Message
When the system determines a collision with the vehicle
in front of you is no longer probable, the warning
message will be deactivated.
NOTE:
• The minimum speed for Brake Control activation is
4 mph (7 km/h).
• The maximum speed for Brake Control activation is
124 mph (200 km/h).
• The Brake Control alerts may be triggered on objects
other than vehicles such as guard rails or sign posts
based on the course prediction. This is expected and
is a part of normal Brake Control activation and
functionality.
• The Brake Control system is intended for on-road use
only. If the vehicle is taken off-road, the Brake
Control system should be deactivated to prevent
unnecessary warnings to the surroundings.
• The active braking is enabled only if the front seat
belts are fastened.
