-
So it doesn't matter whether you have a brand new car or your car is five years old.
-
Anyone can have access to this world first safety device
-
What is Reverse Alert? How does it work?
-
Let's take a look at some of the key features of the Reverse Alert system
-
Reverse Alert is activated when the reverse gear was selected
-
This turns on the rear sensors and the reversing camera
-
When the system detects an object at 1.6 meters,
-
this sends a signal to the front of the vehicle
-
resulting the brakes of the vehicle being applied automatically
-
Park Mode
-
The system is also being designed to accommodate for everyday driving
-
In this mode, the driver can reverse the vehicle 40 centimeters to an object
-
before the brakes apply
-
Park mode is selected when reversing in tightly confined spaces, such as shopping center carparks
-
Override Mode
-
This mode is selected when the driver needs to disengage the braking system
-
For example, connecting to a caravan or a trailer
-
When connecting to a trailer, the driver may be able to use the park mode
-
So the vehicle stops 40 centimeters from the point of connection
-
For the remainder of the distance, the driver will have to disengage the braking system
-
by holding the override button
-
And when the vehicle is in the correct position
-
the button is released
-
The releasing of the button will again engage the Reverse Alert Braking System
-
Another example when the override mode may be used
-
is when reversing down steep driveways
-
Such reversing scenarios may result in the sensors to take in the presence of the road
-
And as such applying the brakes
-
So to ensure the brakes aren't engaged or to override the brakes,
-
the driver holds the override button
-
until the vehicle has passed over the piece of terrain
-
When the vehicle has passed over
-
the button is released
-
These are just some of the features of the Reverse Alert System
-
Thanks for watching and welcome to Reverse Alert, your complete reversing solution
