DRIVER SUPPORT SYSTEM

OTHER DRIVER SUPPORT SYSTEMS *

In order to help the driver to e.g. brake in time, maintain a safe distance to other vehicles and to notice vehicles moving in the same direction as the car, in the so-called blind spot, or to maintain a good position on the carriageway, the car can be equipped with a number of systems:

Adaptive cruise control*

Distance Alert*

BLIS – (Blind Spot Information System)*

Driver Alert Control*

Lane Departure Warning*.

CITY SAFETY™ AND COLLISION WARNING

WITH FULL AUTO BRAKE AND PEDESTRIAN

DETECTION*

These functions help the driver to avoid a collision in situations when changes in the traffic ahead, combined with a lapse in attention, could lead to an incident.

WARNING

The driver is always responsible that the vehicle is driven properly and with a safety distance adapted to the speed.

City Safety™ is a driver tool and can never replace the driver's attention to the traffic or the responsibility to drive the vehicle in a safe manner.

Pedestrian detection (warnings for pedestrians in front of the car) gives no warning and brake intervention at vehicle speeds above

80 km/h, and it does not work in the dark or in tunnels. It cannot detect partially obscured pedestrians, people shorter than 80 cm, or people in clothing that hides the contours of the body.

See the owner's manual, section "Comfort and driving pleasure", for more information about the functions and their limitations.

EBA – EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST

Emergency Brake Assistance helps to increase brake force and so reduce braking distance.

EBA is activated when the driver brakes suddenly. When EBA is activated the brake pedal depresses a little more than usual.

– Press (hold) down the brake pedal for as long as necessary – all braking ceases if the pedal is released.

CAR CARE

Handwashing is gentler on the paintwork than an automatic car wash. The paintwork is also more sensitive when it is new. For this reason, handwashing is recommended during the first few months with a new car.

Use clean water and a washing sponge.

Remember that dirt ad grit can scratch the paintwork.
