Warning of people in danger

If the system detects a person in the defined area in front of the vehicle and if there is the danger of a collision with this person, a warning symbol appears in the Control Display and Head-up Display*.
Although both the shape and the heat radiation are analyzed, false warnings cannot be ruled out.
Warning area in front of the vehicle

The warning area in front of the vehicle is divided into two areas.
- Central area 1 directly in front of the vehicle.
- Expanded area 2 to the right and left.
The entire area moves along with the vehicle in the direction of the steering angle and changes with the vehicle speed. As the vehicle speed increases, the area becomes longer and wider, for example.
