Automatic Braking

WARNINGS

• You must take immediate action once alerted, as the adaptive cruise control braking will not be sufficient to keep a safe distance to the vehicle in front of you.
• In some cases there may be no warning or the warning may be delayed. You should always apply the brakes when necessary.
• When following a vehicle, the system will not automatically decelerate to a stop.

If required, the system will automatically brake for you to maintain the set gap between your vehicle and the one detected in front of you. This braking capacity is limited to approximately 30% of the total manual braking capacity to maintain smooth and comfortable cruising. If your vehicle needs to brake more heavily than this and you do not intervene by braking manually, an alarm will sound and a warning symbol will be shown in the display.
