Your vehicle is equipped with an Audible
Pedestrian Warning system. The Audible
Pedestrian Warning system uses distinct sounds to
alert pedestrians that your vehicle is approaching.
In addition, the system will indicate changes in
vehicle speed by varying the relative volume.
The system uses two external speakers. One is
located in the under-hood compartment and the
other is in the rear of the vehicle. The Audible
Pedestrian Warning system is active when the
vehicle is not in PARK and is traveling at lower
speeds. Depending on the selected gear
(REVERSE, DRIVE or NEUTRAL), the system
activates the corresponding speaker location
based on the intended direction of travel or
activates both speakers in NEUTRAL.
NOTE:
The system is active when driving in Electric mode
only.
SAFETY
WARNING!
The Audible Pedestrian Warning system is not
intended to avoid a collision. It is always the
driver's responsibility to be attentive to the
vehicle's distance between other vehicles,
people, and objects, and most importantly brake
application to ensure safe operation of the vehicle
under all road conditions. Your complete attention
is always required while driving to maintain safe
control of your vehicle. Failure to follow this
warning could result in a collision or serious
personal injury.
