2. Engages in Partial Braking: ABA brakes the vehicle with around 50 percent of the vehicle's maximum braking power.

   The radio and/or hands free system stays muted, the warning beeping continues, and the ABA collision warning, shown in Fig., continues to appear or, if previously dismissed, reappears on the driver display.

3. Engages in Emergency Braking: If a driver does not react to the collision warnings or partial brake application, ABA brakes the vehicle with 100 percent of the vehicle's maximum braking power.

   The radio and/or hands free system stays muted, the warning beeping shifts to a continuous tone, and the emergency braking warning, shown in Fig. appears on the driver display.
