At a glance

The following information is displayed:
Rlength of the journey since the last break.
Rthe attention level determined by ATTEN-
TION ASSIST (Attention Level
), dis-
played in a bar display in five levels from
high to low
Rif ATTENTION ASSIST is unable to calculate the attention level and cannot issue a warn-
ing, the System Suspended
message
appears. The bar display then changes the
display, e.g. if you are driving at a speed
below 37 mph (60 km/ h)or above 124 mph
(200 km/ h).
Activating ATTENTION ASSIST
XActivat e ATTENTION ASSIST using the on-
board computer (
Ypage 194).
The system determines the attention level
of the driver depending on the setting
selected:
If Standard
is selected: the sensitivity with
which the system determines the attention
level is set to normal.
If Sensitive
is selected: the sensitivity is set
higher. The attention level detected by Atten-
tion Assist is adapted accordingly and the
driver is warned earlier.
When ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated, the
é symbol appears in the multifunction
display in the assistance graphic display.
When ATTENTION ASSIST has been deactiva-
ted, it is automatically reactivated after the
engine has been stopped. The sensitivity
selected corresponds to the last selection
activated (standard/sensitive).
Warn ing in the multifunction display
If fatigue or increasing lapses in concentra-
tion are detected, a warning appears in the
multifunction display: ATTENTION ASSIST
TakeaBreak!.
In addition to the message shown in the mul-
tifunction display, you will then hear a warn-
ing tone .
XIf necessary, takeabreak.
XConfirm the message by pressing th ea
button on the steering wheel.
On long journeys, take regular breaks in good
time to allow yourself to rest properly. If you
do not tak eabreak and ATTENTION ASSIST
still detects increasing lapses in concentra-
tion , you will be warned again after
15 minute sat the earliest. This will only hap-
pen if ATTENTION ASSIST still detects typical
indicators of fatigue or increasing lapses in
concentration.
If a warning is output in the multifunction dis-
play, a service station search is performed in
COMAND. You can select a service station
and navigation to this service station will then
begin. This function can be activated and
deactivated in COMAND.
Blind Spot Assist
General notes
Blind Spot Assist monitors the areas on either side of the vehicle that are not visible to the
driver with two lateral, rear-facing radar sen-
sors. A warning display in the exterior mirrors
draws your attention to vehicles detected in
the monitored area. If you then switch on the
corresponding turn signal to change lane, you
will also receive an optical and audible warn-
ing.
Blind Spot Assist supports you from a speed
of approximately 20 mph (30 km/h).
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Blind Spot Assist does not react to:
Rvehicles overtaken too closely on the side,
placing them in the blind spot area
Rvehicles which approach with a large speed
differential and overtake your vehicle
As a result, Blind Spot Assist may not give
warnings in such situations. There is a risk of
an accident.
Driving systems177

The braking performance of the electric
motor using recuperative braking is, in some
operating modes, either reduced or not effec-
tive:
Rwhen the condition of charge of the high-
voltage battery increases
Rif the high-voltage battery is not yet at a
normal operating temperature
Rwhen driving close to the maximum speed
Rwhen the vehicle is almost stationary
Rin transmission positionN
Rduring and after ESP stability control
If necessary, counteract the reduced regen-
erative braking effect by applying the brake
yourself.
Condition of charge display
Condition of charge display :shows the
condition of charge of the high-voltage bat-
tery.
The charge value is shown as a percentage in
the Energy Flow
menu in the instrument
cluster (
Ypage 187).
iThe Energy Flowmenu can also be dis-
played in the COMAND/Audio display.
The condition of charge of the high-voltage
battery has dropped into the reserve range if
the drive system is running and:
Rthe DriveBatteryReserveLevelmes-
sage appears in the display
Rthe indicator lamp in the instrument cluster lights up Charge the high-voltage battery from a con-
dition of charge of less than 20% at:
Ran electrical outlet
Ra charging station
The braking performance of the electric
motor using recuperative braking is, in some
operating modes, either reduced or not effec-
tive:
Rwhen the condition of charge of the high-
voltage battery increases
Rif the high-voltage battery is not yet at a
normal operating temperature
Rwhen the vehicle is almost stationary

Rduring and after ESP stability control
If you do not make an additional effort to
apply the brake yourself, the braking effect
may not be sufficient. If necessary, counter-
act the reduced regenerative braking effect
by applying the brake yourself.

GWARNING
The braking effect may be impaired.
There is a risk of an accident.
XPull over and stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible, paying
attention to road and traffic conditions. Do not continue driving
under any circumstances.
XSecure the vehicle against rolling away (Ypage 153).
XDo not add brake fluid. Adding more will not remedy the mal-

The yellow ABS, ESP
®,
ESP®OFF and
RBS (USA only)/brakes
(Canada only) warning
lamps are lit while the
drive system is running.
ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) is deactivated due to a malfunc-
tion. Therefore, BAS (Brake Assist), COLLISION PREVENTION
ASSIST PLUS, ESP
®(Electronic Stability Program), RBS, the HOLD
function and hill start assist are also deactivated, for example.
ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated.
GWARNING
The braking performance of the electric motor using recuperative
braking may be either reduced or not effective. If you do not make
an additional effort to apply the brake yourself, the braking effect
may not be sufficient. If necessary, counteract the reduced regen-
erative braking effect by applying the brake yourself.
The brake system continues to function normally, but without the
functions listed above. The wheels could therefore lock if you
brake hard, for example.
The steerability and braking characteristics may be severely affec-
ted. The braking distance in an emergency braking situation can
increase.
If ESP
®is not operational, ESP®is unable to stabilize the vehicle.
There is an increased risk of skidding and an accident.
XObserve the additional display messages in the multifunction
display.
XDrive on carefully.
XVisit a qualified specialist workshop immediately.
If the ABS control unit is malfunctioning, other systems may also
not be available, e.g. the navigation system.
