Ford Escape: Pedestrian Alert System / Description and Operation - Pedestrian Alert System - Overview
			
			Overview
 Due
 to the quiet nature of vehicles operating in electric mode, pedestrians
 may not be aware of the presence and operation of the vehicle, creating
 a risk for injury. The pedestrian alert system provides an audible 
sound from front and rear mounted speakers to alert of a vehicle 
approaching in forward or reverse at vehicle speeds between 0-30 km/h 
(0-8 mph).
