(Option/accessoire.)

Examples of areas in which Cross Traffic Alert can help the driver detect obstacles while backing up.

The function is primarily designed to detect vehicles, but in certain cases can also detect pedestrians or smaller objects such as bicycles.

The function is only active when the vehicle is moving backward or reverse gear is engaged.

Si la fonction détecte qu'un objet approche de votre véhicule par le côté :

• an audible signal will sound from either the left or right speaker, depending on which side of your vehicle the object is approaching from.
• un témoin s'allumera dans le graphique du Système d'aide au stationnement à l'écran.
• Le témoin s'affiche dans la vue de dessus de la caméra de stationnement.

Si le conducteur ne tient pas compte de l'avertissement de la fonction et qu'une collision est inévitable, la fonction Freinage automatique intervient pour arrêter le véhicule et un message s'affiche sur le tableau de bord pour expliquer la raison du freinage.

• The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving and help make it safer – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
• The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual about this function to learn of its limitations, which the driver must be aware of before using the function.
