If several drivers use their own remote control,
the vehicle will adjust the personal settings
during unlocking. These settings are also re‐
stored, if the vehicle has been used in the
meantime by a person with a different remote
control.
Changes to the settings are automatically
saved in the personal profile.
Three personal profiles and a guest profile can
be created.

Pedestrian warning with city
braking function
The concept The system can help prevent accidents with
pedestrians.
The system issues a warning in the city driving
speed area if there is imminent danger of a col‐
lision with pedestrians and includes a braking
function.
The camera in the area of the rearview mirror
controls the system.
General information
With sufficient brightness, the system warns
about possible collision danger with pedes‐
trians starting at approx. 6 mph/10 km/h to ap‐
prox. 35 mph/60 km/h and assists with braking
before a collision.
Under those circumstances it reacts to people
who are within the detection range of the sys‐
tem.
Detection range
The detection area in front of the vehicle is div‐
ided into two areas
▷Central area, arrow 1, directly in front of the
vehicle.▷Expanded area, arrow 2, to the right and
left.
A collision is imminent if pedestrians are lo‐
cated within the central area. A warning is is‐
sued about pedestrians who are located within
the extended area only if they are moving in
the direction of the central area.
Information WARNING
Indicators and warnings do not relieve
from the personal responsibility. Due to sys‐
tem limits, warnings or reactions of the system
may not be output or they may be output too
late or incorrectly. There is risk of an accident.
Adjust the driving style to the traffic condi‐
tions. Watch traffic closely and actively inter‐
fere in the respective situations.◀
WARNING
Due to system limits, individual functions
can malfunction during tow-starting/towing
with the Intelligent Safety systems activated,
e.g. approach control warning with light brak‐
ing function. There is risk of an accident.
Switch all Intelligent Safety systems off prior to
tow-starting/towing.◀

▷Pedestrians outside of the detection range.▷Pedestrians having a body size less than
32 in/80 cm.
Functional limitations
The system may not be fully functional or may
not be available in the following situations:
The system may not be fully functional in the
following situations:
▷In heavy fog, rain, sprayed water or snow‐
fall.▷In tight curves.▷If the driving stability control systems are
deactivated, e.g. DSC OFF.▷If the field of view of the camera or the front
windshield are dirty or covered.▷Up to 10 seconds after the start of the en‐
gine, via the Start/Stop button.▷During calibration of the camera immedi‐
ately after vehicle delivery.▷If there are constant blinding effects be‐
cause of oncoming light, e. g., from the sun
low in the sky.▷When it is dark outside.
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 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 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
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 activated.
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.
Objects whose form is similar to people with
sufficient heat radiation are detected.

Display
Warning of people or animals in
danger
If a collision with a person or an animal de‐
tected in this way is imminent, a warning sym‐
bol appears on the instrument cluster and in
the Head-up Display.
Although both the shape and the heat radiation
are analyzed, false warnings cannot be ruled
out.
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.
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 longer and wider,
e.g.
Prewarning The yellow symbol is displayed when a
person is detected in the central area immediately in front of the vehicle.
The yellow symbol is displayed when a person
in the extended area 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 make 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 make an evasive maneuver.
Acute warning The red symbol is displayed and a sig‐
nal sounds.
When animals are detected, an red animal
symbol is displayed with the signal tone.
Red symbol in the instrument cluster.
Intervene immediately by braking or make an
evasive maneuver.
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, e.g. in the following circum‐
stances:
▷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.▷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 cannot be dis‐
played on the rear screen.
