Following Distance Alert - City Mode
At 37 mph/59 kph and below, the system operates in "city mode" and will
typically deliver two (2) alerts – a closer alert and a closest alert.
The closer alert is delivered at 1.5 seconds from the forward vehicle.
This is a double repeating audible tone, along with two (2) lit LEDs on the
DIU. The display on the DIU also changes, as noted in the "closer alert"
illustration on page 6.
The closest alert is delivered at 1.0 seconds from the forward vehicle.
This is a continuously repeating audible tone and three (3) lit LEDs on the
DIU. The display on the DIU also changes, as noted in the "closest alert"
illustration on page 6.
Avoiding Following Distance Alerts
Once the audible alert starts, increase the distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle ahead until the alerts stop. Keeping a greater than 3.0
second following distance when traveling at speeds above 37 mph/59 kph,
or greater than a 1.5 seconds following distance at speeds of 37 mph/59 kph
and below, will keep following distance alerts from activating.
Impact Alert (IA)
The Impact Alert (IA) is the most severe
warning issued by the system. The IA
indicates that a collision with the detected
forward vehicle is likely and the driver must
immediately act to avoid a collision.
Impact Alert - Forward
Stationary Object Alert (SOA)
Collision Warning (FCW)
The Stationary Object Alert (SOA) provides
up to three (3) seconds alert time when
approaching a detected, stationary object
with sufficient metallic (radar-reflective)
surfaces in your lane. The SOA indicates that
a collision with a stationary object is likely,
with a single audible tone – a two (2) lit LED
visual alerts – and an icon on the DIU display.
Stationary Object Alert
The SOA is ready to alert the driver even
when the vehicle is moving at low speeds.
The driver is responsible for taking immediate action to avoid a collision.
Be especially careful when approaching certain types of vehicles and
objects. The radar may not be able to detect objects with limited metal
surfaces (such as recreational vehicles, horse-drawn buggies, motorcycles,
logging trailers, etc.). Entering a curve may reduce the alert time to less
than three (3) seconds.
At lower speeds you may get an earlier alert on stationary objects in your
lane of travel than at higher speeds.
