Pilot Assist uses approx. 40% of the foot brake's capacity. If the car needs to be braked more heavily than Pilot Assist is capable of and the driver does not brake, the warning lamp and acoustic warning are activated to alert the driver that immediate intervention is required.

 Warning

Pilot Assist only gives warning about vehicles detected by its camera and radar unit – therefore a warning may not occur or be delayed.
  • Never wait for a warning. Apply the brakes when the situation requires!
