Headway is measured in seconds, and not physical distance. The headway is the number of seconds it would take for your vehicle to reach the current position of the vehicle ahead. Mobileye C2-270 continuously calculates your headway and displays it numerically on the Display Unit. A two- second headway, in clear weather, is usually considered a safe distance.
HMW will not issue audio warnings when: You drive at speeds below 30 km/h (19 mph). The Mobileye C2-270 volume level has been set to "0" or the System has been ‘muted’. nOTeS: When a passing vehicle cuts in front of you in your lane and drives away, a HMW alert is not generated.
Setting the timing of the headway alert to a low value will activate the alert when vehicles are very close. You are always solely responsible for maintaining a safe driving distance from vehicles ahead, regardless of Mobileye C2-270 warnings or lack of them.

Each mode has its own independent luminance level that can be configured separately.
