Forward Collision Warning
with braking function
Principle
The Forward Collision Warning with braking
function warns of a possible risk of collision
and may brake independently.
In the event of an accident, the system helps
by reducing impact speed.
General information
Sensors detect the traffic situation in their de-
tection range.
The system issues a warning of a possible risk
of collision with vehicles at speeds above ap-
prox. 3 mph/5 km/h. The timing of warnings
may vary with the current driving situation.
The system considers the driver's vehicle han-
dling when responding. If an active driving
style is detected, warnings and brake interven-
tions occur less frequently.
