Lighting139Particular LEDs, based on steering
angle and speed, are additionally
triggered to improve lighting in
curves. This function is activated at
speeds from 25 mph to 43 mph and
reacts to steering angle.
Corner light
When turning off, depending on the
steering angle and the turn signal light, particular LEDs are triggered
which illuminate the direction of
travel. It is activated up to a speed of
25 mph.
Reverse parking function
To assist driver's orientation when
parking, both corner lights and
reversing light illuminate when
headlights are on and reverse gear is engaged. They remain illuminated for
a short time after disengaging reverse gear or until driving faster than
4 mph in a forward gear.
High beam assistThis feature allows the high beam to
function as main driving light at night.
The camera in the windscreen
detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles. Each LED on
right or left side can be triggered or
faded out particularly according to the traffic situation. This gives the best
light distribution without dazzling
other road users. Once activated,
high beam assist remains active and switches high beam on and off
depending on surrounding
conditions. The latest setting of the
high beam assist will remain after the ignition is switched on again.
High beam assist includes a special
motorway mode. When driving faster
than 71 mph on motorways, the light
beam becomes smaller to avoid
dazzling of oncoming traffic. When
following vehicles ahead or passing,
mirror dazzling for these vehicles is
reduced.

Driving and operating165Stop-start systemThe stop-start system helps to save
fuel and to reduce the exhaust
emissions. When conditions allow, it
switches off the engine as soon as the
vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, e.g. at a traffic light or in a
traffic jam.
Activation
The stop-start system is available as
soon as the engine is started, the

Driving and operating185If, for example, normal settings are
active in AUTO mode and DMC
detects a sporty driving behaviour, it
automatically changes systems into
sporty settings unless the driver
deselects sporty damping or steering
in the Sport Mode Customisation .
If, for another example, comfort
settings are active in TOUR mode
and whilst driving on a winding road a
sudden hard brake is necessary,
DMC will detect the dynamic vehicle
condition and changes the settings
for suspension back to normal
(default) setting to enhance vehicle
stability.
When the driving characteristic or the dynamic vehicle state returns to the
former state, DMC will change to
preselected settings.Flex Ride visualisation menu

202Driving and operatingA precondition is that forward collision
alert with front camera system is not
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation menu 3 125.
The system includes: ● brake preparation system
● emergency automatic braking
● forward looking brake assist
● intelligent brake assist (only with radar sensor)
● front pedestrian protection system
Brake preparation system
When approaching a vehicle ahead
or a pedestrian so quickly that a
collision is likely, the brake
preparation system slightly
pressurizes the brakes. This reduces
the response time, when a manual or automatic braking is requested.
The brake system is prepared so that braking can occur more rapidly.
If equipped only with front camera the
system operates up to a speed of 50
mph.Emergency automatic braking
After activation of brake preparation
system and just before the imminent
collision, this function automatically
applies limited braking to reduce the
impact speed of the collision or
prohibit a crash. Depending on the situation, the vehicle may
automatically brake moderately or
hard. This front automatic braking can
only occur if a vehicle ahead is
detected, indicated by the vehicle ahead indicator A 3 197 . On vehicles
with front pedestrian protection, front
automatic braking can also occur
when a pedestrian ahead is detected,
indicated by the pedestrian ahead
indicator 7.
If equipped only with front camera the
system operates up to a speed of 50
mph.
Below a speed of 25 mph the system
can apply full braking.
Emergency automatic braking may
slow the vehicle to a complete stop to try to avoid a potential crash. If this
happens, emergency automatic
braking may engage the electricparking brake to hold the vehicle at a stop. To release press the electric
parking brake button or firmly press
the accelerator pedal.9 Warning
Emergency automatic braking is
an emergency crash preparation
feature and is not designed to
avoid crashes. Do not rely on the
system to brake the vehicle.
Emergency automatic braking will
not brake outside of its operating speed range and only responds to
detected vehicles and
pedestrians.
Forward looking brake assist
In addition to the brake preparation
system and emergency automatic
braking, the forward looking brake
assist function makes the brake assist more sensitive. Therefore, pressing
the brake pedal less strongly results
in immediate hard braking. This
function helps the driver brake
quicker and harder before the
imminent collision.

Driving and operating229The system is only operable when a
lane marking is detected.
If the system only detects lane
markings on one side of the road, it
will only assist for this side.
Lane keep assist detects hands-free
driving. In this case a message in the
Driver Information Centre pops-up
and a chime sounds as long as lane
keep assist detects hands-free
driving.
Deactivation The system is deactivated by
pressing a; the LED in the button
extinguishes.
The system is deactivated
automatically when a trailer is
detected.
System limitations The system performance may not
operate properly when:
● Vehicle speed is out of range from 37 to 112 mph.
● Driving on winding or hilly roads.
● During nighttime driving.● Weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow.
● The sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt, windscreen damage or
affected by foreign items, e.g.
stickers.
● The sun is shining directly into the camera lens.
● Close vehicles ahead
● Banked roads
● Road edges
● Roads with poor lane markings ● Sudden lighting changes
● Vehicle modifications, e.g. tyres.
Switch off the system if the system is
disturbed by tar marks, shadows,
road cracks, temporary or
construction lane markings, or other
road imperfections.9 Warning
Always keep your attention on the
road and maintain proper vehicle
position within the lane, otherwise
vehicle damage, injury or death
could occur.
Lane keep assist does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
The system may not keep the
vehicle in the lane or give an alert,
even if a lane marking is detected.
The steering of the lane keep
assist may not be sufficient to
avoid a lane departure.
The system may not detect hands-
off driving due to external
influences (road condition and
surface, weather etc). The driver
has full responsibility to control the vehicle and is always required tokeep the hands on the steeringwheel while driving.
Using the system while towing a
trailer or on slippery roads could
cause loss of control of the vehicle
and a crash. Switch the system off.
