Braking
can
be
discontinued
either
by
depressj ing

Principle
The
system
can
help
to
avoid
accidents
with
pej destrians
and
cyclists.
If
an
accident
cannot
be
avoided,
the
system
helps
to

warns
of
the
possible
risk
of
collision in
the
urban
speed
range
and
brakes
automatij
cally,
as
necessary.
General
At
speeds
above
approx.
5
km/h,
3
mph,
the
sysj tem
warns
of
the
possible
risk
of
collision
with
pedestrians
and
cyclists.
Pedestrians
and
cyclists
are
taken
into
account
if
they
are
located
within
the
detection
range
of
the system.
The
system
is
controlled
using
the
following
senj sors,
depending
on
the
equipment:
'xCamera

Night
Vision
with
person

animal
recognition
Principle
Night
Vision
with
person
and
animal
recognition
is
a
night
vision
system.
An
infrared
camera
records
the
area
in
front
of the
vehicle
and
warns
of
people
and
animals
on
the
road.
Warm
objects
with
a
shape
similar
to human
beings
or
animals
are
detected
by
thesystem.
The
thermal
image
can
be
shown
on
theControl
Display
as
needed.
Depending
on
the
equipment,
the
detected

are
illuminated
with
the
Dynamic

for
better
detection.
General

radiated
by
objects
in
the
camera's
field
of
view
is
shown.
Warm
objects
are
shown
light
and
cold
objects dark.
Recognition
depends
on
the
temperature
differj ential
in
relation
to

and
on
the heat
radiation
of
the
object.
Objects
with
a
low
temperature
difference
in
relation
to
the
environj ment
or
which
are
only
radiating
low
levels
of
heat
can
therefore
only
be
detected
to
a
limited
degree.
For

Lane
Departure
Warning
Principle
The
Lane
Departure
Warning
issues
a
warning
if the
vehicle
leaves
the
road
or
its
lane.
General This
camera-based
system
warns
once
a
minij
mum
speed
has
been
reached.
The
minimum
speed
is
country-specific
and
is
displayed
in
the
menu
for
the
Intelligent
Safety
Systems.
Warnings
are
issued
by
means
of
a
steering
wheel
vibration.
The
strength
of
the
steering
wheel
vibration
can
be
adjusted.
The
system
does
not
issue
a
warning
if
the
driver indicates
before
leaving
the
driving
path.
If
a
lane
marking
is
crossed
in
the
speed
range up
to
210
km/h,
approx.
130
mph,
the
system
inj
tervenes
not
only
by
vibrating
but
also
with
a brief
active
steering
intervention.
The
system
thereby
helps
to
keep
the
vehicle
in
lane.
