8.23. Intelligent Emergency Braking (IEB) system (where fitted)

Failure to follow the warnings and instructions for proper use of the IEB system could result in serious injury or death.

The IEB system is a supplemental aid to the driver. It is not a replacement for the driver’s attention to traffic conditions or responsibility to drive safely. It cannot prevent accidents due to carelessness or dangerous driving techniques.
The IEB system does not function in all driving, traffic, weather and road conditions.

There are three types of IEB available, the type fitted to your vehicle depends on the vehicle specification:

Intelligent Emergency Braking (IEB).
Intelligent Emergency Braking (IEB) with Pedestrian Detection.
Intelligent Emergency Braking (IEB) with Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection and Junction Support.

Depending on the specification of the IEB system fitted to your vehicle, IEB can assist the driver when there is a risk of a forward collision with:

A vehicle ahead in the travelling lane.
A pedestrian ahead in the travelling lane (where Pedestrian Detection is fitted).
A cyclist ahead in the travelling lane (where Cyclist Detection is fitted).

Junction assist (where fitted) can assist the driver when there is a risk of a forward collision

When you turn right or left and cross the path of an oncoming vehicle.
When you turn right or left, a pedestrian is detected in the forward direction and is expected to enter your vehicle's path.

The IEB system uses a radar sensor (A) located on the front of the vehicle and camera (B) installed behind the windscreen in to measure the distance to the vehicle, pedestrians and cyclists ahead in the same lane (where pedestrian or pedestrian and cyclist detection is fitted).
