Advance warning
An advance warning is shown, for example if a

very short distance to a vehicle ahead.
The driver must intervene personally if there is
an advance warning.
Acute warning with braking function
An acute warning is shown in the event of an
immediate collision if the vehicle approaches
an object with relatively high differential speed.
The driver must intervene personally if there is
an acute warning. If necessary, the driver is as‐
sisted by slight automatic brake intervention if
there is a risk of collision.
An acute warning can be triggered even with‐
out a previous advance warning.
Brake intervention
The warning requires to take action yourself.
Maximum braking force is used during a warn‐
ing. In order for braking force support to be
used, it is necessary for the brake to be
pressed sufficiently quickly and powerfully. In
addition, the system may also support with a
small amount of braking if there is the risk of a
collision. The vehicle can be braked at low
speed until it comes to a stop.
Manual gearbox: When brakes are engaged
until it comes to a stop, the engine may shut
off.
