G Warning!
BAS PLUS will only respond with brake
assistance if it has clearly detected an object.
Detection can be impeded by
Rdirty or covered sensors
BAS PLUS detects obstacles that are in your
driving path for a sufficient period of time to
permit the system to recognize these
obstacles. If you approach the detected
obstacle quickly, BAS PLUS calculates the
level of brake power boost appropriate for the
circumstance to supply when the driver
applies the brakes.
When you step quickly on the brake pedal in
an emergency braking situation, BAS PLUS
automatically regulates the brake power
boost to a level that is suitable for the traffic
situation.
Rsnowfall or heavy rain
Rdisturbance from other radar sources
Rstrong radar reflection such as in parking
garages
BAS PLUS uses radar signals that are not
reflected well by narrow objects and
absorptive materials. For this reason BAS
PLUS will not react to persons, animals, and
approaching traffic or cross-traffic.
BAS PLUS may not detect narrow vehicles
driving in front of you, such as motorcycles
and vehicles driving offset from your vehicle
center.
If BAS PLUS requires a particularly high brake
power boost, PRE-SAFE® is activated at the
same time.
