AEB SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the AEB system. Failure to op-
erate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result
in serious injury or death.
• The AEB system cannot detect all vehicles under all conditions.
• The radar sensor does not detect the following objects: – Pedestrians, animals or obstacles
in the roadway.
– Oncoming vehicles.
– Crossing vehicles.
• The radar sensor has some perfor- mance limitations. If a stationary ve-
hicle is in the vehicles’s path, the AEB
system will not function when the
vehicle is driven at speeds over ap-
proximately 50 mph (80 km/h).
•
The radar sensor may not detect a ve-
hicle ahead in the following conditions:
– Dirt, ice, snow or other material covering the radar sensor.
–
Interference by other radar sources.– Snow or road spray from traveling vehicles.
