Driving Aids
Brake Support : Assists the driver in reducing collision speed by preparing the brake system for rapid braking. Brake support does not automatically activate the brakes, but if the brake pedal is pressed even lightly by the driver, brake support could add additional braking up to full force. Active Braking : Active braking may activate if the system determines that a collision is imminent. The system may help the driver reduce impact damage or avoid the crash completely. Note: If you perceive Pre-Collision Assist alerts as being too frequent or disturbing, then you can reduce the alert sensitivity, though the manufacturer recommends using the highest sensitivity setting where possible. Setting lower sensitivity would lead to fewer and later system warnings. Adjusting the Pre-Collision Assist Settings You can adjust the Pre-Collision Assist settings by using the information display control. See General Information (page 111).
If required, you can switch active braking off using the information display control. See General Information (page 111). Note: Active braking automatically turns on every time you switch the ignition on.
