Warning and control

The basic function for Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist is to warn and help
control the vehicle depending on the col

lision risk level:

‘Collision Warning’,

‘Emergency Braking’ and ‘Stopping vehi

cle and ending brake

control’.

Collision Warning

• To warn the driver of a collision, the

‘Collision Warning’ warning message
will appear on the cluster, an audible
warning will sound.

• If a vehicle is detected in front, the

function will operate when your vehi

cle speed is between approximately
6~112 mph (10~180 km/h).

• If a pedestrian or cyclist is detected in

front, the function will operate when
your vehicle speed is between
approximately 6~53 mph (10~85 km/
h).

• If ‘Active Assist’ is selected, braking

may be assisted.

Emergency Braking

• To warn the driver that emergency

braking will be assisted, the

‘Emer

gency

Braking’ warning message will

appear on the cluster, an audible
warning will sound.

• If a vehicle is detected in front, the

function will operate when your vehi

cle speed is between approximately
6~53 mph (10~85 km/h).

• If a pedestrian or cyclist is detected in

front, the function will operate when
your vehicle speed is between
approximately 6~40 mph (10~65 km/
h).

• In emergency braking situation, brak

ing is assisted with strong braking
power by the function to help prevent
collision with the vehicle, pedestrian or
cyclist ahead.
