Front Pedestrian Alert
With Head-Up Display
Without Head-Up Display
When the vehicle approaches a pedestrian
or cyclist ahead too rapidly, the red FPB
alert display will flash on the windscreen.
Eight rapid high-pitched beeps will sound
from the front, or both sides of the Safety
Alert Seat will pulse five times. When this
Pedestrian Alert occurs, the brake system
may prepare for driver braking to occur
more rapidly which can cause a brief, mild
deceleration. Continue to apply the brake
pedal as needed. Cruise control may be
disengaged when the Front Pedestrian Alert
occurs.
Automatic Braking
If FPB detects it is about to crash into a
pedestrian or cyclist directly ahead, and the
brakes have not been applied, FPB may
automatically brake moderately or brake
hard. This can help to avoid some very low
speed pedestrian or bicyclist collisions or
reduce pedestrian injury. FPB can
automatically brake to detected pedestrians
or bicyclist between 8 km/h (5 mph) and
80 km/h (50 mph). Automatic braking levels
may be reduced under certain conditions,
such as higher speeds.
FPB may slow the vehicle to a complete
stop to try to avoid a potential collision
with a pedestrian or bicyclist. If this
happens, Automatic Braking may engage the
Electric Parking Brake (EPB) to hold the
vehicle at a stop. Release the EPB. A firm
press of the accelerator pedal will also
release Automatic Braking and the EPB.
Warning
FPB may alert or automatically brake the
vehicle suddenly in situations where it is
unexpected and undesired. It could falsely
alert or brake for objects similar in shape
Driving and Operating
Warning (Continued)
or size to pedestrians or cyclists,
including shadows. This is normal
operation and the vehicle does not need
service. To override Automatic Braking,
firmly press the accelerator pedal, if it is
safe to do so.
Automatic Braking can be disabled through
vehicle settings. To view available settings
from the infotainment screen, touch Settings
> Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems.
Using the Front Pedestrian Braking
system while towing a trailer could cause
you to lose control of the vehicle and
crash. Turn the system to Alert or Off
when towing a trailer.
Cleaning the System
If FPB does not seem to operate properly,
cleaning the outside of the windscreen in
front of the rear-view mirror may correct
the issue.
