  • The vehicle speed is below 10 km/h.
  • The brake pedal is depressed over a certain conditions.

NOTICE

Take the following precautions when using the Brake Assist System (BAS): This system is only a supplemental system and it is not intended to, nor does it replace the need for extreme care and attention of the driver. The sensing range and objects detectable by the sensors are limited. Pay attention to the road conditions at all times.
