•In order for a pedestrian to be detected
he/she must appear full-length and have a
height of at least 80 cm.
•The camera sensor's ability to see pedes-
trians at dusk and dawn is limited - just like
the human eye.
•The camera sensor's capacity to detect
pedestrians is deactivated when driving in
darkness and tunnels - even when street-
lights are lit.
WARNING
"Collision Warning with Auto Brake and
Cyclist and Pedestrian Detection" is a means
of assistance. The function cannot detect all
pedestrians in all situations and does not see,
for example:
•partially obscured pedestrians, people in
clothing that hides their body contour or
pedestrians shorter than 80 cm.
•pedestrians who are carrying larger
objects.
The driver is always responsible that the vehi-
cle is driven properly and with a safety dis-
tance adapted to the speed.
