Warningwithbrakingfunction
Display
A warning symbol appears in the instrument
cluster and in the Head-up Display if a collision with a detected vehicle is imminent.SymbolMeasureSymbol lights up red: prewarning.
Brake and increase distance.Symbol flashes red and an acoustic signal sounds: acute warning.
Brake and make an evasive maneuj ver, if necessary.
Prewarning
This warning is issued, for instance when there
is the impending danger of a collision or the distance to the vehicle ahead is too small.
The driver must intervene actively when there
is a prewarning.
Acutewarningwithbrakingfunction
Acute warning is displayed in case of the immij nent danger of a collision when the vehicle apj
proaches another object at a high differential
speed.
The driver must intervene actively when there
is an acute warning. If necessary, the driver is
assisted by a minor automatic braking interj
vention in a possible risk of collision.
Acute warnings can also be triggered without
previous forewarning.
Brakingintervention
The warning prompts the driver to react. Durj
ing a warning, the maximum braking force is used. Prerequisite for the brake booster is sufj
ficiently quick and hard stepping on the brake
pedal. If there is a risk of collision, the system may assist with braking.When the vehicle is
traveling at a low speed, the vehicle may come
to a complete stop.

The braking intervention occurs only if vehiclestability has not been restricted, for instance
by deactivating the DSC Dynamic Stability
Control.
The driver may cancel the braking intervention
by stepping on the accelerator pedal or by acj tively moving the steering wheel.
Object detection can be restricted. Follow the
limitations of the detection range and funcj tional restrictions.

lision with pedestrians, and support this with a
light braking function.
The camera in the area of the interior mirror
controls the system.
Generalinformation
With sufficient brightness, the system warns
about possible collision danger with pedesj trians starting at approx. 6 mph/10 km/h to apj
prox. 35 mph/60 km/h and assists with braking before a collision.
The system reacts to people who are within the detection range of the system.
Detectionrange
The detection area in front of the vehicle is divjided into two areas:
'yCentral area, arrow 1, directly in front of thevehicle.'yExpanded area, arrow 2, to the right and
left of the central area.
A collision is imminent if pedestrians are loj
cated within the central area. A warning is isj
sued about pedestrians who are located within the extended area only if they are moving inthe direction of the central area.
Safetyinformation WARNING
The system does not relieve from perj
sonal responsibility to assess visibility and trafj fic situation. There is a risk of an accident. Adjjust driving style to traffic conditions. Watch
traffic closely and actively intervene where apj
propriate.'

Detectionrange
The detection potential of the camera is limj
ited.
Thus, a warning might not be issued or be isj
sued late.
E.g., the following situations may not be dej
tected:'yPartially covered pedestrians.'yPedestrians that are not detected as such because of the viewing angle or contour.'yPedestrians outside of the detection range.'yPedestrians having a body size less than
32 in/80 cm.
Functionallimitations
The system may not be fully functional or may
not be available in the following situations:
'yIn heavy fog, wet conditions, or snowfall.'yIn tight curves.'yIf the driving stability control systems are deactivated, for instance DSC OFF.'yIf the field of view of the camera or the
windshield are dirty or covered.'yUp to 10 seconds after the start of the enj gine via the Start/Stop button.'yDuring calibration of the camera immedijately after vehicle delivery.'yIf there are constant blinding effects bej
cause of oncoming light, for instance from
the sun low in the sky.'yWhen it is dark outside.
NightVisionwithPedestrian
andAnimalDetection
Concept
Night Vision with pedestrian and animal detecj tion is a night vision system.
An infrared camera scans the area in front of
the vehicle and issues a warning if it detects
pedestrians and animals on the street. Warm
objects that are similar in shape to human bej
ings or animals are detected by the system. If necessary, the thermal image can be displayed
on the Control Display.
Thermalimage
The image shows the heat radiated by objects in the field of view of the camera.
Warm objects have a light appearance and cold objects a dark appearance.
The ability to detect an object depends on the
temperature difference between the object
and the background and on the level of heat radiation emitted by the object. Objects that
are similar in temperature to the environment
or that radiate very little heat are difficult to dej
tect.
For safety reasons, when driving at speeds above approx. 3 mph/5 km/h and in low ambij ent light, the image is only displayed when thelow beams are switched on.
A still image is displayed at regular intervals for a fraction of a second.

Pedestrianandanimaldetection
Object detection and object warning only funcj
tion in darkness.
Objects whose form is similar to people with
sufficient heat radiation are detected.
In addition, the system also detects animalsabove a certain minimum size, for instance
deer.
Display on the Control Display with thermal imj
age activated:
'yPeople detected by the system: in light yellow.'yAnimals detected by the system: in dark
yellow.
Range of object detection, with good ambient
conditions:
'yPedestrian detection: up to approx.
330 ft/100 m'yDetection of large animals: up to approx.
490 ft/150 m'yDetection of medium animals: up to apj prox. 230 ft/70 m
Environmental influences can limit the availaj
bility of object detection.
If the vehicle systems detect that the vehicle is located in a residential area, the animal detecj
tion is temporarily switched off.
Safetyinformation

With animal warnings, no distinction is made
between the central or expanded area.
The entire area moves along with the vehicle in
the direction of the steering angle and changes
with the vehicle speed. As the vehicle speed
increases, the area becomes, for instance lonjger and wider.

detection
In some situations, it may occur that pedesj
trians are detected as animals or animals as
pedestrians.
Small animals are not detected by the object
detection function, even if they are clearly visij ble in the image.
Limited detection, for instance in the following
circumstances:
'yPeople or animals who are fully or partially covered, especially when their heads are
covered.'yPeople who are not in an upright position,
for instance lying down.'yCyclists on unconventional bicycles (e.g., recumbent bicycles).'yAfter physical damage to the system, forinstance after an accident.

Lanedeparturewarning Concept
The lane departure warning alerts when the vehicle on roads with lane markings is about to
leave the lane.
Generalinformation
Depending on the country version, the system
issues a warning at speeds between
35 mph/55 km/h and 45 mph/70 km/h.
When switching on the system below this
speed, a message is displayed in the instruj
ment cluster.
Warnings are issued by means of a steering
wheel vibration. The time of the warning may
vary depending on the current driving situaj
tion.
The system does not provide a warning if the
turn signal is set before leaving the lane.
Safetyinformation WARNING
The system does not relieve from perj
sonal responsibility to assess road and traffic safety. There is a risk of an accident. Adjustdriving style to traffic conditions. Watch trafficclosely and actively intervene where approprij
ate. Do not jerk the steering wheel in response
to a warning.'
