The warning prompts the driver himself to in‐
tervene. During a warning, the maximum brak‐
ing force is used. A prerequisite for the brake
booster is a sufficiently fast and sufficiently
strong actuation of the brake pedal. In addition,
if there is a risk of collision, the system can as‐
sist with a slight braking intervention. The in‐ tervention can bring a vehicle traveling at slow
speed to a complete stop.
The braking intervention is executed only if
DSC Dynamic Stability Control is switched on
and Dynamic Traction Control DTC is acti‐
vated.
The braking intervention can be interrupted by
pressing on the accelerator pedal or by actively
moving the steering wheel.
Tow-starting and towing
When tow-starting and towing the vehi‐
cle, switch off the Intelligent Safety systems;
otherwise, improper behavior of the braking
function of individual systems could result in
an accident.◀

Due to system limitations, warnings may
be not be issued at all, or may be issued late or
improperly. Therefore, always be alert and
ready to intervene; otherwise, there is the dan‐
ger of an accident occurring.◀
Detection range The system's detection capabilities are limited.
This may result in the warning not being is‐
sued or being issued late.

Acute warning with braking function
Warning of the imminent danger of a collision
when the vehicle approaches another object at
a relatively high differential speed.
The acute warning prompts the driver to inter‐
vene and, if there is the danger of a collision, is
accompanied by a braking intervention.
The braking intervention may be executed with
maximum braking force and for a brief period
only as necessary.
The intervention can bring the vehicle to a
complete stop.
The braking intervention is executed only if
DSC Dynamic Stability Control is switched on
and Dynamic Traction Control DTC is acti‐
vated.
Above approx. 130 mph/210 km/h, the braking
intervention occurs as a brief braking pressure.
No automatic delay occurs.
Adapting your speed and driving style

Night Vision with Pedestrian
and Animal Detection
The concept Night Vision with pedestrian and animal detec‐
tion is a night vision system.
An infrared camera records 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 be‐
ings or animals are detected by the system. If necessary, the heat image can be displayed on
the Control Display.
Heat image
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
Seite 121SafetyControls121
Online Edition for Part no. 01 40 2 926 740 - X/13

are similar in temperature to the environment
or that radiate very little heat are difficult to de‐
tect.
For safety reasons, when driving at speeds
above approx. 3 mph/5 km/h and in low ambi‐
ent light, the image is only displayed when the
low beams are switched on.
A still image is displayed at regular intervals for
a fraction of a second.
Pedestrian and animal detection
Object detection and warning only functions in
darkness.
Warm objects that are similar in shape to hu‐
man beings are detected by the system.
In addition, the system also detects animals
above a certain minimum size, e.g., deer.
With heat image activated on the Control Dis‐
play:
People detected by the system are displayed
with a slight yellow hue.
Animals detected by the system are displayed
in a darker yellow.
Under good ambient conditions, the object de‐
tection operates within the following distance
ranges:
▷Pedestrian detection: up to approx.
330 ft/100 m▷Detection of large animals: up to approx.
490 ft/150 m▷Detection of medium animals: up to ap‐
prox. 230 ft/70 mEnvironmental influences can limit the availa‐
bility of object detection.
If the vehicle systems detect that the vehicle is
located in a residential area, the animal detec‐
tion is temporarily switched off.
Notes Personal responsibility
Night Vision cannot replace the driver's
personal judgment of the visibility conditions
and the traffic situation. The view ahead and the actual visibility conditions must always be
the basis on which the vehicle speed is ad‐ justed; otherwise, there is a risk to road
safety.◀

Warning area in front of the vehicle
The warning area for the pedestrian warning
consists of two parts:
▷Central area, arrow 1, directly in front of the
vehicle.▷Expanded area, arrow 2, to the right and
left.
In the animal warning, 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 longer and wider,
for example.
Prewarning The yellow symbol is displayed when aperson is detected in the central area,
arrow 1, immediately in front of the ve‐
hicle.
The yellow symbol is displayed when a person
in the extended area, arrow 2, is moving from
the right or left towards the central area.
The displayed symbol can vary with the people
detected.
Intervene actively by braking or making an eva‐
sive maneuver.
When animals are detected, an animal
symbol is displayed. The symbol also
shows the side of the road on which
the animal was detected. Intervene actively by
braking or making an evasive maneuver.
Acute warning
The red symbol is displayed and a sig‐
nal sounds.
Intervene immediately by braking or
making an evasive maneuver.
With animals no acute warning occurs.
Display in the Head-up Display The warning is displayed simultane‐
ously in the Head-up Display and on
the instrument cluster. The displayed
symbol can vary with the people detected.
When animals are detected, an animal symbol
is displayed.
System limits
Basic limits
System operation is limited in situations such
as the following:▷On steep hills, in steep depressions or in
tight curves.▷When the camera is dirty or the protective
glass is damaged.▷In heavy fog, rain or snowfall.▷At very high external temperatures.
Limits of pedestrian and animal
detection
In some situations, it may occur that pedes‐
trians are detected as animals or animals as
pedestrians.
Small animals are not detected by the object
detection function, even if they are clearly visi‐
ble in the image.
Limited detection:
▷People or animals who are fully or partially
covered, especially when their heads are
covered.▷People who are not in an upright position,
e.g., lying down.Seite 124ControlsSafety124
Online Edition for Part no. 01 40 2 926 740 - X/13

▷Cyclists on unconventional bicycles (e.g.,
recumbent bicycles).▷After physical damage to the system, e.g.,
after an accident.
No display on the rear screen
The image from Night Vision with people de‐
tection cannot be displayed on the rear screen.
Lane departure warningThe concept Starting at a specific speed, this system alerts
you when the vehicle on streets with lane
markings is about to leave the lane. This
speed, depending on the country version, is
between 35 mph/55 km/h and
45 mph/70 km/h.
The steering wheel begins vibrating gently in
the event of warnings. The time of the warning
may vary depending on the current driving sit‐
uation.
The system does not provide a warning if the
turn signal is set before leaving the lane.
Notes Personal responsibility
The system cannot serve as a substitute
for the driver's personal judgment of the
course of the road and the traffic situation.
In the event of a warning, do not jerk the steer‐
ing wheel, as you may lose control of the vehi‐
cle.◀

Active Blind Spot Detection
The concept
Two radar sensors below the rear bumper
monitor the area behind and next to the vehicle
at speeds above approx. 30 mph/50 km/h.
The system indicates whether there are vehi‐
cles in the blind spot, arrow 1, or approaching
from behind on the adjacent lane, arrow 2.
