for assistance at risk of collision and select the desired setting.When warnings are perceived as being too frequent the sensitivity can be reduced, which reduces the number of warnings but also leads to the function giving a warning at a later stage. The setting with latest warning should therefore only be used in exceptional cases, such as in dynamic driving.
Warning
- No automatic system can guarantee 100 % correct function in all situations. Therefore, never test the function by driving at people or vehicles - this may cause severe damage and injury and risk lives.
- The function warns the driver when there is a risk of a collision, but it cannot shorten the driver's reaction time.
- Even if the setting for early warning has been selected, warnings could be perceived as being late in certain situations, e.g. when there are large differences in speed or if vehicles ahead suddenly brake heavily.
- When the setting for early warning is selected, the warnings are given with more advance notice. This may mean that the warnings are given more frequently than with another setting, but it is recommended since it can make the function more effective.
