Symbol for active pedestrian detection
When pedestrian detection is active,

When you have been made aware of a
pedestrian, assess the situation by looking
through the windshield. The actual distance
between your vehicle and objects or
pedestrians cannot be assessed properly via
a screen display.
Other objects apart from pedestrians may
also be highlighted.

Warning!
Please do not forget that your primary
responsibility is to drive the vehicle. A driver’s
attention to the road must always be his/her
primary focus when driving. For your safety
and the safety of others, stop before trying to
remove window fogging or cleaning the
windshield in front of the Night View Assist
Plus camera.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet
(approximately 14 m) every second.
