Important safety notes
Observe the notes on braking (Ypage 136).
If yo ufailtoa dapt your driving style or if yo uare
inattentive ,cruise control can neither reduce
the ris kofana ccident nor override the laws of
physics .Cruise control canno ttake road,
weathe rand traffic conditions into account.
Cruise control is only an aid. Yo uare responsible
for the distance to the vehicl einfront, for vehi-
cle speed, for braking in goo dtime and for stay-
ing in lane.
If yo uchange wheel size ,make sure they corre-
spond to the correct wheel size category
(
Ypage 267). If the categor yischanged without
recoding the control units in the vehicle, the
functioning of cruise control may be impaired.
Do not us ecruise control:
Rin traffic conditions that are unsuitable for
driving at aconstant speed, e.g. in heavy traf-
fic, on winding roads or off-road.
Ron slippery roads. Braking or accelerating
may cause the drive wheel stoloset raction
and the vehicl ecould then skid.
Rwhen there is poo rvisibility ,e.g. du etofog,

If there is achange of drivers ,make sure that
yo ui nform the new driver aboutt he set cruise

If you change wheel size, make sure they corre-
spond to the correct wheel size category
(
Ypage 267). If the category is changed without
recoding the control units in the vehicle,t he
functioning of the distance warning feature may
be impaired. COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST
may then detect amalfunction and switch itself
off.
Operation
XTo activate/deactivate: activate or deacti-
vate the distance warning function in the on-
board computer (
Ypage 184).
If the distance warning function of the COL-
LISION PREVENTION ASSISTisa ctivated, the
display shows the Äsymbol:
Rin the header
Rin the Status Overviewof the Assist.menu (Ypage 183)
At speedsuptoa pprox20m ph (30 km/h) the
display in vehiclesw ith Active Parking Assist
first shows the ístatus indicator. Only from
as peed of abou t20m ph (30 km/h )does the
display show the Äsymbolinstead of the
í status indicator.
The distance warning function can help you to
minimize the risk of afront-end collision with a
vehicle ahea dorreduce the effects of such a
collision. With the help of the rada rsensor sys-
tem, the distance warning function can detect
obstacles that are in the path of you rvehicle for
an extended period of time. If the distance warn-
ing function detects that there is arisk of acol-
lision, you wil lbewarned visually and, where
necessary ,acoustically.W ithout yourinterven-
tion, the distance warning function cannot pre-
vent acollision.
The distance warning function issues awarning
at speeds:
Rfrom abou t4mph (7 km/h) if you approach a
vehicle traveling in front or astationary vehi-
cle very quickly. The ·warning lamp in the
instrument cluster flashe sand an intermittent
warning tone also sounds.
At speedsuptoa bout45mph (70 km/h), the
system also detects stationary obstacles ,for
example stationary or parked vehicles.
XBrake immediately until the distance to the
obstacle increases and the risk of acollision
has passed.
or
XTake evasive action, provideditiss afe to do
so.
Adaptive Brake Assist
General notes
Adaptive Brake Assist evaluates the traffic sit-
uatio nwith the help of the rada rsensor system
and can detect obstacle swhich have been in
you rvehicle's path for an extended period of
time. From speedsa bove4mph (7 km/h), Adap-
tive Brake Assist aid syou in braking during haz-
ardou ssituations.
Up to aspeed of approximately 125 mph
(200 km/h), Adaptive Brake Assist is capable of
reacting to moving obstacle sthat have already
been detected as such at least once over the
period of observation.
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Adaptive Brake Assist does not react:
Rto peopleora nimals
Rto oncoming vehicles
Rto crossing traffic
Rto stationary obstacles
Rwhen cornering
As aresult, the Adaptive Brake Assist may not
intervene in all critical conditions. There is a
risk of an accident.
Alway spay careful attention to the traffic sit-
uatio nand be ready to brake.
GWARNING
Adaptive Brake Assist cannot always clearly
identify objects and complex traffic situa-
tions.
In such cases, Adaptive Brake Assist can:
Rintervene unnecessarily
Rnot intervene
There is arisk of an accident.

Standard:the sensitivity with which the sys-
tem determines the attention level is set to
normal.
Sensitive: the sensitivity is set higher. The
driver is warned earlier.
When ATTENTION ASSIST is switched on and
the vehicle engine is running:
Ron vehicles without steering wheel buttons,
the À indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up
Ron vehicles with steering-wheel buttons, the
display shows the Àsymbol:
-in the status area
-in the Status Overviewof the Assist.menu (Ypage 183)
For vehicles with steering wheel buttons, if you
deactivate ATTENTION ASSIST, the system is
automatically re-activated when you start the
engine. The system sensitivity then corresponds to the last selection activated –standard or sen-
sitive.
If you switch off ATTENTION ASSIST in avehicle
without steering wheel buttons, the system
remains switched off even after you start the
engine. The status of the system after switching
on the engine always corresponds to the status
last selected.
Warning in the display
If the system detectst iredness or increasing
lapses in concentration, the warning Atten‐
tion Assist: TakeaBreak!orAttent.Asst: Take Break!is shown in the display.
An additional warning tone sounds.
XIf necessary, take abreak.
XConfirm the message by pressing the a
button on the steering wheel.
On long journeys, take regular breaks in good
time to allow yourself to rest. If you do not take
ab reak and ATTENTION ASSIST continues to
detect increasing lapses in concentration, you
will be warned again after 15 minutes at the
earliest. This will only happen if ATTEN-
TION ASSIST still detectst ypical indicators of
fatigue or increasing lapses in concentration.
PARKTRONIC
General notes
PARKTRONIC is an electronic parking aid. The
system is equipped with ultrasonic sensors in
the front and rear bumpers to monitor the area
around your vehicle. PARKTRONIC indicates vis-
uallya nd audibly the distance between your
vehicle and an object.
Your vehicle features two separate sound emit-
ters with different frequencies for the warning
tones. The warning ranges in front of and behind the vehicle are indicated by different warning
tones.
PARKTRONIC is activated automatically when
you:
Rturn the key to position 2in the ignition lock
Rrelease the parking brake and
Rmove the selector lever to D,Nor R
PARKTRONIC is deactivated at speeds above
11 mph (18 km/h). PARKTRONIC is reactivated
at speeds below 10 mph (16 km/h).
Important safety notes
PARKTRONIC is only an aid. It cannot replace
your own awareness of the immediate surround-
ings. You are responsible for safe maneuvering,
parking and pulling away.W hen maneuvering,
parking and pulling away,m ake sure that there
are no persons, animals or object sinthe maneu-
vering area.
!Pay particular attention to obstacles above
or below the sensors when parking, such as
flower pots or trailer towbars. PARKTRONIC
does not recognizes uch objectswhen they
are in the immediate vicinity of the vehicle.
You could damage the vehicle or objects.
PARKTRONIC can suffer interference from:
Rultrasonic sources such as atruck's
compressed-air brakes, an automatic car
wash or apneumatic drill
Rattachments to the vehicle, e.g. rear moun-
ted racks
Rnumber plates (vehicle license plates) that
are not affixed flat against the bumper
Rdirty or icy sensors
Remove adetachable trailer coupling if it is no
longer required. PARKTRONIC measures the
minimum detection range to an obstacle from
the bumper, not the ball coupling.
