Braking
intervention
The warning prompts the driver himself/herself
to react. During a warning, the maximum brak~ ing force is used. Premise for the brake booster
is sufficiently quick and sufficiently hard step~ ping on the brake pedal. The system can assistwith some braking intervention if there is risk of
a collision. At low speeds vehicles may thus come to a complete stop.
Manual transmission: During a braking inter~
vention up to a complete stop, the engine may be shut down.
The braking intervention is executed only if ve~ hicle stability has not been restricted, e.g. by deactivating the DSC Dynamic Stability Control.
The braking intervention can be interrupted bystepping on the accelerator pedal or by actively
moving the steering wheel.
Object detection can be restricted. Limitations
of the detection range and functional restric~ tions are to be considered.
