Failure Mode Detection

In service, if any fault is detected, the message center displays the warning Check Pedestrian System.

The hood deployment controls is non-serviceable component. If they are replaced their bar code labels must be read and recorded in the service database against the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) for security purposes.

After deployment of the pedestrian protection system, the vehicle must be stopped as soon as it is safe to do so. The hazard warning lamps will be activated and can only be switched off by pressing the engine START/STOP switch to turn the engine off and on again. A warning message 'Check Pedestrian System' will appear in the message center and the vehicle should be transported to the nearest dealer/authorised repairer. The vehicle must not be driven when the hood has been deployed.
