brake sensor VAUXHALL GRANDLAND X 2020 User Guide

174Driving and operatingthe brake pedal less strongly results
in immediate hard braking. This
function helps the driver brake
quicker and harder before the
imminent collision.9 Warning
Active emergency braking is not
designed to apply hard
autonomous braking or to
automatically avoid a collision. It is
designed to reduce the vehicle
speed before a collision. It may not
react to animals. After a sudden
lane change, the system needs a
certain time to detect the next
preceding vehicle.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver must always be
ready to take action and apply the brakes and steer to avoid
collisions.
The system is designed to work with
all occupants wearing their seat belts.
Intelligent brake assist
If the vehicle is equipped with radar
sensor, intelligent brake assist may
be available. Intelligent brake assist
provides a boost to braking when the
brake pedal is quickly applied. The
braking is based on the speed of
approach and distance to a vehicle
ahead.
Minor brake pedal pulsations or pedal movement during this time is normal
and the brake pedal should continue to be applied as needed. Intelligent
brake assist will automatically
disengage only when the brake pedal is released.9 Warning
Intelligent brake assist may
increase vehicle braking in
situations when it may not be
necessary. You could block the
flow of traffic. If this occurs, take
your foot off the brake pedal and
then apply the brakes as needed.
Forward collision alert 3 170.
Front pedestrian protection 3 175.
System limitations
In some cases, the active emergencybraking system may provide an
automatic braking in situations that
seem to be unnecessary, for instance
in parking garages, due to traffic signs in a curve or due to vehicles in
another lane. This is normal
operation, the vehicle does not need service. Firmly apply the accelerator
pedal to override the automatic
braking if the situation and the
surroundings permit.
In the following cases, active
emergency braking performance is limited:
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● detecting all vehicles, especially vehicles with a trailer, tractors,
muddy vehicles, etc.
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● driving during nighttime

Driving and operating175● the sensor in the windscreen orthe radar unit behind the front
bumper are blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt etc.
● the windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers
Complete attention is always required
while driving, and you should be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes and / or steer the vehicle to
avoid crashes.
We recommend to deactivate the
system in the vehicle personalisation
in the following cases:
● when towing a trailer or caravan
● when carrying long objects on roof bars or a roof rack
● when the vehicle is being towed with the engine running
● when a spare wheel is fitted that is smaller than the other wheels
● before using an automatic car wash with the engine running
● before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in a workshop● if the windscreen has beendamaged close to the camera
● if the front bumper has been damaged
● if the brake lights are not working
Fault
In case the system requires a service, a message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
If the system does not work as it
should do, vehicle messages are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Vehicle messages 3 106.
Front pedestrian protection
Front pedestrian protection may help
to avoid or reduce the harm caused
by front-end crashes with pedestrians when driving forward.
The system uses the front camera in
the windscreen and a radar unit in the
front bumper to detect a pedestrian
directly ahead in your path.Front pedestrian protection can
detect and alert to pedestrians in a
forward gear at speeds between
3 mph and 37 mph. Additionally front
pedestrian protection can provide a
boost to braking or automatically
brake the vehicle.
During nighttime driving, system
performance is limited.9 Danger
Front pedestrian braking does not
provide an alert or automatically
brake the vehicle, unless it detects
a pedestrian.
The system may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
when the pedestrian is not directly ahead, not fully visible, not
standing upright, or when part of a
group.
Front pedestrian protection includes:
● detecting front pedestrian ahead● front pedestrian alert
Front pedestrian protection is
activated together with forward
collision alert.
