General
Sensors record the traffic situation.
The system issues a warning of a possible risk of
collision with vehicles at speeds above approx.
5 km/h/3 mph. The timing of these warnings may
vary depending on the current driving situation.
When deliberately moving closer to a vehicle, the
Collision Warning and brake intervention are acti‐
vated later to avoid unwarranted system respon‐
ses.
