This system is designed to alert the

driver of certain collision risks. A

radar detects if your vehicle is rapidly

approaching another vehicle traveling

in the same direction as yours.

If it is, a red warning light

illuminates and an audible warning

chime sounds.

The brake support system assists the driver in reducing the collision speed

by charging the brakes. If the risk of collision further increases after the

warning light illuminates, the brake support prepares the brake system for

rapid braking. This may be apparent to the driver. The system does not

automatically activate the brakes but, if the brake pedal is pressed, full force

braking is applied even if the brake pedal is lightly pressed.

Using the Collision Warning System

WARNING: The collision warning system’s brake support can

only help reduce the speed at which a collision occurs if the

driver applies the vehicle’s brakes. The brake pedal must be pressed

just like any typical braking situation.

The warning system and chime can be turned on and off separately; the

warning system sensitivity can be adjusted to one of three possible

settings by using the information display control. Refer to the

Information Displays chapter.

Note: If the system cannot be turned off in a vehicle equipped with

MyKey威, refer to the MyKey威 chapter.

Note: If collision warnings are perceived as being too frequent or

disturbing then the warning sensitivity can be reduced, though the

manufacturer recommends using the highest sensitivity setting where

possible. Setting lower sensitivity would lead to fewer and later system

warnings. Refer to the Information Displays chapter for instructions on

reducing the sensitivity.
