Limitations du système d'alerte de circulation transversale

(* En option/accessoire.)

(Alerte de trafic transversal lors de la marche arrière.)

La fonction Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) avec Freinage automatique peut présenter des fonctionnalités limitées dans certaines situations. Le freinage automatique est actif à des vitesses inférieures à 15 km/h.

The function has certain limitations – the sensors, for example, cannot "see" through other parked vehicles or objects blocking the vehicle.

Below are a few examples of situations in which the function's field of vision may be initially limited and approaching vehicles may therefore not be detected until they are very close to your vehicle:

Le véhicule est garé trop loin dans la place de stationnement.

In a diagonal parking space, Cross Traffic Alert may be completely "blind" on one side of your vehicle.

Blind zone.

The function's field of vision.

However, as you back your vehicle slowly out of a parking space, CTA's field of vision changes in relation to the obstructing vehicle/object and its blind zone is reduced.

Exemples de limitations supplémentaires

• La sous-fonction Freinage automatique ne détecte que les véhicules en mouvement et peut donc ne pas « voir » et freiner pour des obstacles fixes, des cyclistes ou des piétons.
• Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors may reduce functionality and prevent the system from providing warnings.
• CTA is automatically deactivated if a trailer, bicycle holder or similar is connected to the vehicle's electrical system.
• For CTA to function effectively, bicycle holders, luggage racks or similar should not be mounted on the vehicle's towbar.
