Limitations of the System

The Automatic Emergency Braking
(AEB) system is designed to monitor the
vehicle ahead or a pedestrian in the
roadway through radar signals and cam-
era recognition to warn the driver that a
collision is imminent, and if necessary,
apply emergency braking.
In certain situations, the radar sensor or
the camera may not be able to detect the
vehicle or pedestrian ahead. In these
cases, the AEB system may not operate
normally. The driver must pay careful
attention in the following situations where
the AEB operation may be limited.
Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
- The radar sensor or camera is blocked
with a foreign object or debris.
- Inclement weather such as heavy rain
or snow obscures the field of view of
the radar sensor or camera.
- There is interference by electromag-
netic waves.
- There is severe irregular reflection
from the radar sensor.
- The vehicle in front is too small to be
detected by the camera recognition
system (for example a motorcycle or a
bicycle, etc.).
- The vehicle in front is an oversize vehi-
cle or trailer that is too big to be detect-
ed by the camera recognition system
(for example a tractor trailer, etc.).
- The driver's field of view is not well illu-
minated (either too dark or too much
reflection or too much backlight that
obscures the field of view).
- The vehicle in front does not have their
rear lights properly turned ON.
- The outside brightness changes sud-
denly, for example when entering or
exiting a tunnel.
