The system performance may be degraded or
– Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency
braking).
Stabilised speed on roads with no or low
curvature.
not available by:
6
– Sensor covered with snow, ice, slush, mud or
dirt.
This warning lamp lights up on the
instrument panel without any addi-
tional message, to indicate that the
automatic braking system is not
available.
– Windscreen damaged or smeared, with blurred
view or covered with foreign items (e.g. stickers).
– Damaged front bumper (or deformed in
the past) or covered with foreign items (e.g.
stickers).
– Front camera out of regular position or missing
cover.
– Brake discs cooling process is on-going.
– In curves.
– System initialization process after battery
disconnection.
– Sun or lights shining into the front camera lens.
– Adverse environmental conditions (e.g. rain,
fog or snow).
– Vehicle ahead creating road spray.
The system performance may be affected by:
– Vehicle stability system in progress.
– Vehicle battery voltage out of range.
– Wet road reflecting lights.
– Close vehicles ahead.
– Tractors, muddy vehicles or vehicles with a
trailer.
– Banked roads.
– Winding or hilly roads.
– Poor lighting conditions.
– Sudden lighting changes.
– Vehicle modifications (e.g. tyres).
This is a normal behavior indicating that a
condition is not fulfilled and which does not
request the support of a workshop.
In any situations with ignition on where
automatic braking presents a risk, deactivating
the system via the driving aids touch screen
application is recommended, for instance:
– Carrying long objects on roof bars.
– Using an automatic car wash.
– Performing any maintenance (e.g. changing a
wheel, working inside the engine compartment).
– Placing the vehicle on a rolling bench in a
workshop.
The vehicle has a multifunction camera located
at the top of the windscreen and, depending on
version, a radar located in the front bumper.
This system does not replace the need for
driver vigilance.
This system is designed to assist the driver
and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously
monitor traffic conditions in accordance with
applicable driving regulations.
– Towing the vehicle.
– Following a damage of the windscreen close to
the detection camera.
The system is automatically deactivated if:
– A spare wheel with a too small diameter
is detected.
– A fault with the brake pedal switch or with
the right or left brake lamp is detected.
– A fault in the sensors, in the electronic or in
the brake system is detected.
– A trailer is detected by the equipped vehicle
hitch (with an electrical connection plug).
– A severe crash (e.g. with airbag
deployment) is detected.
As soon as the system detects a potential
collision, it prepares the braking circuit.
This may cause a slight noise and a slight
sensation of deceleration.
Operating conditions and
limits
In case the detection is degraded or
temporarily unavailable by environment
conditions, then a driver indication is not
displayed (because a driver action is not
requested).
Brake system operational.
ASR system activated.
Seat belts fastened for all passengers.
