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 driver presses the brake pedal even lightly, 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 systemmay help the driver reduce impact damage or avoid the crash completely.

Setting lower sensitivity would lead to fewer and later system warnings. Note: The Pre-Collision Assist system automatically disableswhen you select 4X4 LOW or when you manually disable AdvanceTrac™.
