volkswagen — Warning levels and braking intervention

● If you are unsure about what systems your vehicle has depending on the vehicle equip- ment, please enquire at a suitably qualified workshop before starting your journey. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswa- gen dealership.  For different conditions, Urgent warning may be activated in the following speed ranges: Vehicles driving in the same di- rection Around 30 km/h to 250 km/h a) Warning levels and braking intervention a) This data is an approximate value and only applies under ideal conditions. Automatic braking Front Assist can brake the vehicle automatically in several stages with increasing braking force.

The reduced speed means that it is possible to minimise the consequences of an accident.  Please refer to at the start of the chapter on page 118. Distance warning  Front Assist detects when safety is endangered by driving too close to the vehicle in front. The indicator lamp  lights up. Increase the dis- tance! For different conditions, Automatic braking may be activated in the following speed ranges: Speed range: around 65 km/h to 250 km/h. Stationary vehi- cles Around 5 km/h to 55 km/h a) Advance warning  Front Assist detects a possible collision and pre- pares the vehicle for possible emergency braking.

Vehicles driving in the same di- rection Around 5 km/h to 250 km/h a) Pedestrians walking in the same direction Around 5 km/h to 65 km/h a) An acoustic warning sounds and the red warning lamp  lights up. Brake or take avoiding action! For different conditions, advance warning may be activated in the following speed ranges: Pedestrians crossing the road Around 5 km/h to 65 km/h a) a) This data is an approximate value and only applies under ideal conditions.

Stationary vehi- cles Around 30 km/h to 85 km/h a) Vehicles driving in the same di- rection Around 30 km/h to 250 km/h a) Braking intervention If the system detects that you are braking insuf- ficiently when there is a risk of collision, Front Assist can increase the braking force and help prevent a collision. This can help minimise the consequences of an accident. Pedestrians walking in the same direction Around 30 km/h to 65 km/h a) Pedestrians crossing the road Around 30 km/h to 65 km/h a) For different conditions, Braking intervention may be activated in the following speed ranges:  a) This data is an approximate value and only applies under ideal conditions.

Urgent warning If you do not react to the advance warning, the system may initiate a short braking jolt in order to draw attention to the increasing collision risk. Brake or take avoiding action! 182.5C1.TRO.74 Driver assist systems 119 Urgent warning Automatic braking Advance warning
