As
aresult, BAS PLUS may not intervene in all
critical situations. There is arisk of an
accident.
Always pay careful attention to the traffic
situation and be ready to brake.
In particular, the detection of obstacles can
be impaired if there is:
R dirt on the sensor soranythin gelse
covering the sensors
R snow or heavy rain
R interference by other radar sources
R there are strong radar reflections, for
example in parking garages
R an arrow vehicle travelin ginfront, e.g. a
motorbike
R av ehicle travelin ginfrontonad ifferent line
relative to the center of your vehicle
Following damage to the fron tend of the
vehicle, have the configuratio nand operation
of the rada rsensor schecked at aqualified
specialist workshop. This also applies to
collisions at low speeds where ther eisno
visible damage to the fron tofthe vehicle.
Braking assistance To prevent
acollision with the vehicle in front,

necessary if:
R you approach an obstacle, and
R BAS PLUS has detected arisk of collision
When driving at aspeed under 20 mph
(30 km/h):ify ou depress the brake pedal,
BAS PLUS is activated. The increase in brake
pressure will be carried out at the last
possible moment.
When driving at aspeed greater than
20 mph (30 km/h):ify ou depress the brake
pedal sharply, BAS PLUS automatically raises
the brake pressure to avalue adapted to the
traffic situation.
If BAS PLUS demands particularly high
braking force, preventative passenger protection measures (PRE-SAFE
