pedestrian or bicyclist is detected ahead.
When approaching a detected pedestrian or
bicyclist too quickly, FPB provides a red
flashing alert on the windshield and rapidly
beeps or pulses the driver seat. FPB can
provide a boost to braking or automatically
brake the vehicle. This system includes
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA), and the
Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system
may also respond to pedestrians or
bicyclists. See Automatic Emergency Braking
(AEB) 0 263. Always wear a seat belt and
ensure that all passengers are properly
restrained.
The FPB system can detect and alert to
pedestrians or bicyclists in a forward gear at
speeds between 8 km/h (5 mph) and
80 km/h (50 mph). During daytime driving,
the system detects pedestrians or bicyclists
up to a distance of approximately 40 m
(131 ft). During nighttime driving, system
performance is very limited.
Warning
FPB does not provide an alert or
automatically brake the vehicle, unless it
detects a pedestrian or bicyclist. FPB may
not detect pedestrians, including children,
or bicyclists:
When the pedestrian or bicyclist is not
directly ahead, fully visible,
or standing upright, or when part of a
group.
Due to poor visibility, including
nighttime conditions, fog, rain,
or snow.
If the FPB sensor is blocked by dirt,
snow, or ice.
If the headlamps or windshield are not
cleaned or in proper condition.
Be ready to take action and apply the
brakes. For more information, see
Defensive Driving 0 183. Keep the
windshield, headlamps, and FPB sensor
clean and in good repair.
Driving and Operating
FPB can be set to Off, Alert, or Alert and
Brake through vehicle settings. To view
available settings from the infotainment
screen, touch Settings > Vehicle >
Collision/Detection Systems.
Detecting the Pedestrian or Bicyclist
Ahead
FPB alerts and automatic braking will not
occur unless the FPB system detects a
pedestrian or bicyclist. When a nearby
pedestrian or bicyclist is detected in front of
the vehicle, the pedestrian ahead indicator
will display amber.
