Attentiveness assistant
Principle The system can detect increasing inattentive‐
ness or tiring of the driver on long monotonous
drives, for example on motorways. In this situa‐
tion, it is recommended that you take a break.
Note WARNING
The system does not take your personal
responsibility from you when you are estimat‐
ing your physical condition. Increasing inatten‐
tion or fatigue might not be detected, or not in
good time. Danger of accidents. Make sure
that the drive is rested and alert. Adapt driving
style to the driving conditions.◀
Function The system is switched on every time the en‐
gine is started and cannot be switched off.
After the start of the drive, the system is adap‐
ted to the driver so that an increase in inatten‐
tion or fatigue can be detected.
This process considers the following criteria:▷Personal driving style, for example, steer‐
ing.▷Drive conditions, for example, time of day,
duration of drive.
The system is active from approxi‐
mately. 70 km/h, 43 mph and can display a rec‐
ommendation to take a break
Recommendation to take a break
With increasing inattention or tiredness of the
driver, an instruction is shown on the control
display with the recommendation to take a
break.
A recommendation to take a break will only be
displayed once during an uninterrupted trip.
After a break, at the earliest another break rec‐
ommendation may be displayed after approxi‐
mately 45 minutes.
System limits
The function may be restricted in situations
such as the following and no warning or a
wrong one is triggered:▷If the time is wrongly set.▷If the speed driven falls considerably below
70 km/h, 43 mph.▷For sporty driving style, for example, with
heavy acceleration or fast cornering.▷In active drive situations, for example, fre‐
quent lane change.▷With bad road conditions.▷With high side-wind.
PreCrash
Principle With the system from 30 km/h/20 mph critical
driving situations may occur, which could
cause an accident. In these situations, auto‐
matically preventative, protective measures
are taken to minimise the risk of accident.
Critical driving situations are, for example:
▷Full braking.▷Heavy understeering.▷Heavy oversteering.
When collision warning or front-end collision
warning with braking function is fitted, within
the limits of the system, threatened collisions
into vehicles in front or stationary vehicles are
detected.
Note WARNING
The system does not take your personal
responsibility from you. Critical situations can‐
not be detected reliably or in good time due to
limitations of the system. Danger of accidents.
Adapt driving style to the driving conditions.
Observe the traffic situation and intervene ac‐
tively if the situation warrants it.◀

tions.◀

Park Assistant
Principle
The system supports you when parking in par‐
allel to the road.
Ultrasonic sensors measure parking spaces on
both sides of the vehicle.
The park assistant calculates the ideal parking
line and takes over steering during the process
of parking.
When parking up, also follow the visual and au‐
dible information and notes of the PDC, the
Park Assistant and the rear-view camera, and
respond accordingly.
The park assistant incorporates Park Distance
Control, PDC, see page 131.
Notes WARNING
The system does not take your personal
responsibility from you when you are estimat‐
ing the traffic situation. Due to limits of the sys‐
tem, it cannot respond independently in a rea‐
sonable way in all traffic conditions. Danger of
accidents. Adapt driving style to the driving
conditions. Observe the traffic situation and in‐
tervene actively if the situation warrants it.◀
ATTENTION
The Park Assistant may steer across
curbs or up onto curbs. Danger of damage to
property. Observe the traffic situation and in‐
tervene actively if the situation warrants it.◀
An engine stopped by the Auto Start Stop
function is automatically started by activating
the Park Assistant.Seite 139Driving comfortControls139
