216 Driving and operating
The system uses the front camera in
the windscreen and depending on the
vehicle configuration a radar unit in
the front bumper to detect a
pedestrian directly ahead in the path.
9 Warning
Do not use a license plate support
on the front bumper to ensure
proper radar unit functionality.
Front pedestrian protection can
detect and alert to pedestrians in a
forward gear at speeds between
3 mph and 37 mph. Additionally, it can
automatically brake the vehicle.
During nighttime driving, system
performance is limited.
9 Danger
Front pedestrian braking does not
provide an alert or automatically
brake the vehicle, unless it detects
a pedestrian.
The system may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
when the pedestrian is not directly
ahead, not fully visible, not
standing upright, or when part of a
group.
The system can only be deactivated
by deactivating the active emergency
braking in the vehicle personalisation
3 80. When ignition is switched on
next time, system is activated.
Front pedestrian alert
When approaching a detected
pedestrian too quickly, a warning
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre. A warning chime
is provided.
Cruise control may be disengaged
when the front pedestrian alert
occurs.
