Driver Information Centre.

General information for both

variants of forward collision alert

9 Warning

Forward collision alert is just a

warning system and does not

apply the brakes. When

approaching a vehicle ahead too

rapidly, it may not provide you

enough time to avoid a collision.

The driver accepts full

responsibility for the appropriate

following distance based on traffic,

weather and visibility conditions.

The complete attention of the

driver is always required while

driving. The driver must always be

ready to take action and apply the

brakes.

System limitations

The system is designed to warn only

for vehicles, but may react also on

other metallic objects.

In the following cases, forward

collision alert may not detect a vehicle

ahead or sensor performance is

limited:

■ on winding roads,

■ when weather limits visibility, such

as fog, rain, or snow,

■ when the sensor is blocked by

snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt, or

windscreen damage.

Following distance

indication

The following distance indication

displays the distance to a preceding

moving vehicle. The system uses,

depending on the vehicle equipment,

either the radar behind the radiator

grille or the front camera in the

windscreen to detect the distance of

a vehicle directly ahead in your lane.

It is active at speeds above 25 mph.

When a preceding vehicle is detected

ahead, the distance is indicated in

seconds, displayed on a page in the

Driver Information Centre 3 114.

Press the MENU button on the turn

signal lever to select Vehicle

Information Menu X and turn the

adjuster wheel to choose following

distance indication page.
