2-4. Using other driving systems Pre-Collision System∗ When a frontal collision seems likely, the system attempts to lessen vehicle's damage. Two types of pre-collision system are available. The brake-linked pre-collision system operates in conjunction with the braking operation of the driver. The radar type pre-collision system has a sensor that is used to detect an unavoidable frontal collision. n Pre-collision seat belts (front seats only) Brake-linked pre-collision safety system Based on the speed and amount of the driver's braking operation, the system determines if emergency braking is being performed. If this determination is made, the seat belts are immediately retracted to increase the effectiveness of the pretensioners (→P. 79). In addition, the system also operates if the driver loses control of the vehicle. Radar type pre-collision safety system If the pre-collision sensor detects that a collision is unavoidable, the pre-collision system will retract the seat belt before the collision occurs. The same will happen if the driver makes an emergency braking or loses control of the vehicle. (→P. 79) However, when the VSC system is disabled, the system will not operate in the event of skidding. n Pre-collision brake assist (Radar type only) Applies greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is depressed. ∗: If equipped 282 L/C200_U (OM60G36U)
