In the event of an imminent impact the
system may intervene by braking the car
automatically to prevent the crash or
reduce its effects.
The system provides the driver with
acoustic and visual signals through
specific messages on the instrument
panel display fig. 118.
The system may intervene automatically
in case of imminent collision or impact
against a pedestrian crossing the
road (speed 31 mph / 50 km/h): the

The acoustic and visual signals before
the system cuts in depend on the car
speed. No acoustic/visual signal is
generated at speeds slower than 20 mph
(30 km/h).
Acoustic/visual signal is generated at
speeds faster than 20 mph (30 km/h),
instead.
The system may lightly brake to warn
the driver if a possible frontal accident
is detected (limited braking). Signals and
limited braking are intended to allow
the driver to react promptly, in order

to prevent or reduce the effects of a
potential accident.
In situations with the risk of collision,
if the system detects no intervention
by the driver, it may provide automatic
braking to help slow the vehicle and
mitigate the potential frontal collision
(automatic braking).
If intervention by the driver on the
brake pedal is detected but not deemed
