occupant in the best position in relation to the
air bag.
The seat belt system comprises:
RSeat belts
REmergency TensioningDevices and seat belt
force limiters
If the seat belt is pulled quickly or sharply by the
seat belt guide, the inertia reel locks. The belt
strap cannot be extracted any further.
The Emergency TensioningD evice tightensthe
seat belt in an accident,p ulling the belt close
against the body. However it does not pull the
vehicle occupant back in the direction of the
backrest.
The Emergency TensioningD evice does not cor-
rect an incorrect seat position or the routing of
an incorrectly fastened seat belt.
When triggered, aseat belt force limiter helps to
reduce the force exerted by the seat belt on the
vehicle occupant.
The seat belt force limiters are synchronized
with the front air bags which absorb part of the
deceleration force. This can reduce the force
exerted on the vehicle occupantsd uring an acci-
dent.
!If the front-passenger seat is not occupied,
do not engage the seat belt tongue in the
buckle on the front-passenger seat. Other-
wise, in the event of an accident the Emer-
gency TensioningD evice and the side impact
air bag, in addition to other systems, may be
triggered and have to be replaced.
Important safety notes
The use of seat belts and child restraint systems
is required by law in:
Rall 50 states
Rthe U.S. territories
Rthe District of Columbia
Rall Canadian provinces
Even where this is not required by law, all vehicle
occupantss hould correctly fasten their seat
belts before starting the journey.
GWARNING
If the seat belt is not worn correctly, it cannot
perform its intended protective function. An
incorrectly fastened seat belt can also cause
injuries, for example, in the event of an acci-
dent or when braking or changing direction
abruptly. This poses an increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Always ensure that all vehicle occupantsh ave
their seat belts fastened correctly and are sit-
ting properly.
The components of the restraint system work in
conjunction with each other. They can only
deploy their protective function if, at all times, all vehicle occupants:
Rhave fastened their seat belts correctly
(Ypage 41)
Rhave the seat and head restraint adjusted
properly (Ypage 84)
GWARNING
The seat belt does not offer the intended level of protection if you have not moved the back-
rest to an almost vertical position. When brak-
ing or in the event of an accident,y ou could
slide underneath the seat belt and sustain
abdomen or neck injuries, for example. This
poses an increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Adjust the seat properly before beginning
your journey. Always ensure that the backrest
is in an almost vertical position and that the
shoulder section of your seat belt is routed
across the center of your shoulder.
GWARNING
Persons less than 5ft(1.50 m) tall cannot
wear the seat belt correctly without an addi-
tional and suitable restraint system. If the
seat belt is not worn correctly, it cannot per-
form its intended protective function. An
incorrectly fastened seat belt can also cause
injuries, for example, in the event of an acci-
dent or when braking or changing direction
abruptly. This poses an increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
For this reason, alwayss ecure persons under
5ft( 1.50 m) tall in suitable additional restraint
systems.

Classification System (OCS)" (Ypage 45).
You can thus avoid the riskst hat could arise as
ar esult of:
Ran incorrectly categorized personint he front-
passenger seat
Rthe unintentional deactivatio nofthe front-
passenger front air bag
Rthe unsuitable positionin gofthe child
restraint system, e.g. too clos etothe dash-
board
Rearward-facing child restraint system
If it is absolutely necessary to install arearward-
facin gchild restraint system on the front-
passenger seat, always make sure that the
front-passenge rfront air bag is deactivated.
Only if the PASSENGER AI RBAG OFF indicator
lamp is permanently lit (
Ypage 39) is the front-
passenger front air bag deactivated.
Always observe the child restraint system man-
ufacturer'si nstallation and operating instruc-
tions.
Forward-facing child restraint system
If you secur eachild in aforward-facin gchild
restraint system on the front-passenge rseat,
always move the front-passenge rseat as far
back as possible.T he entire base of the child
restraint system must always rest on the seat
cushio nofthe front-passenge rseat. The back-
rest of the child restraint system must lie as flat
as possible against the backrest of the front-
passenger seat. The child restraint system must
not touc hthe roof or be subjected to aload by
the head restraint .Adjust the angle of the seat
backrest and the head restraint position accord- ingly. Always make sure that the shoulder belt
strap is correctly routed fromt he front-
passenger seat belt guide to the shoulder belt
guide on the child restraint system. The shoul-
der belt strap must be routed forward and down
fromt he front-passenge rseat belt guide.
Always observe the child restraint system man-
ufacturer'si nstallation and operating instruc-
tions.

Important safety notes
If you fail to adapt your drivings tyle or if you are
inattentive, the drivings afetysystems can nei-
the rreducet he risk of an accident nor override
the laws of physics .Drivings afetys ystems are
merely aids designed to assist driving.
56Driving safety systems
Safety
Page 59 of 298

You are responsible for maintainingthe distance
to the vehicle in front, for vehicle speed, for
braking in good time, and for stayin ginlane.
Always adapt your drivings tyle to suit the pre-
vailing road and weather condition sand main-
tain asafe distance from the vehicle in front.
Drive carefully.
The drivings afetysystems described only work
as effectively as possible when there is ade-
quate contac tbetwee nthe tires and the road
surface. Pay particular attention to the informa-
tion regarding tires, recommended minimum
tir et read depth setc.int he "Wheels and tires"
section (
Ypage 260).
In wintry drivingc onditions, always use winter
tires (M+S tires) and if necessary, sno wchains.
Only in this way will the drivings afetysystems
described in this section work as effectively as
possible.
ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)
Genera linformation
AB Sregulates brakep ressure in suchaway that
the wheels do not lock when you brake. This
allows you to continue steeringt he vehicle when
braking.
The ! ABSw arnin glamp in the instrument
cluster lightsupw hen the ignition is switched
on. It goes out when the engin eisrunning.
AB Sw orksf romaspeed of about 5mph
(8 km/h), regardless of road-surfacec onditions.
AB Sw orksons lippery surfaces, even when you
only brakeg ently.
Important safetyn otes
iObserve the "Importan tsafetyn otes" sec-
tion (Ypage 56).
GWARNING
If AB Sism alfunctioning, the wheels could
lock when braking. The steerabilitya nd brak-
ing characteristics would be severely affec-
ted. There is an increased danger of skidding and accidents.
Drive on carefully. Have AB Schecked imme-
diately at aqualified specialis tworkshop.
When AB Sismalfunctioning, other systems,
including drivings afetysystems, will also becom
einoperative .Observe the information
on the AB Swarnin glamp (
Ypage 204) and dis-
play messages which may be shown in the
instrumentc luster (
Ypage 179).
Brakes
XIf ABS intervenes: continue to depresst he
brakep edal vigorously until the braking sit-
uation is over.
XTo make afull brake application: depress
the brakep edal with full force.
If AB Sintervenes when braking, you will feel a
pulsing in the brakep edal.
The pulsatin gbrakep edal can be an indication
of hazardous road conditions, and function sasa
reminder to tak eextra care while driving.
BAS (Brake Assist System)
Genera linformation
BA So perates in emergenc ybraking situations.
If you depresst he brakepedal quickly, BAS
automatically boostst he braking force, thus
shortening the stopping distance.
Important safetyn otes
iObserve the "Importan tsafetyn otes" sec-
tion (Ypage 56).
GWARNING
If BA Sism alfunctioning, the braking distance
in an emergenc ybraking situation is
increased. There is arisk of an accident.
In an emergenc ybraking situation, depress
the brakep edal with full force. AB Sprevents
the wheels from locking.
Braking
XKeep the brakep edal firmly depressed until
the emergenc ybraking situation is over.
AB Sp revent sthe wheels from locking.
The brakes will function as usual onc eyou
release the brakep edal. BASisdeactivated.

Function
Starting at aspeedofa pproximately 4mph
(7 km/h), th edistanc ewarning function warns
you ifyou rapid ly approachav ehicle in front. An
intermittentw arning tonewillthen sound, and
the · distancewarning lamp willlight up in
th ei nstrumen tcluster.
XBrake immediately inorder to increas ethe
dist ancefromt heveh icle in front.
or
XTakee vasive action,p rovide ditiss afe todo
so.
Due to th enature of th esystem, particularly
co mpli cated but non-critical driving conditions
may also caus ethe system to displayaw arning.
Witht hehelp of th eradar sensor system, the
dist ancewarning function can detect obstacles
that are inthep athofy our veh iclefor an exten-
ded period of time.
Up to aspeedofa pproximately 44 mph
(70 km/ h),t he distance warnin gfunction can
also react to stationary obstacles, such as stop-
ped or parked vehicles.
Autonomous braking function
If the driver does not react to the distance warn-
ing signal in acritical situation, Active Brake
Assis tcan assist with the autonomous braking
function.
If the autonomous brakin gfunction requires a
particularly high brakin gforce, preventative
passenger protection measures (PRE-SAFE
®)
are activated simultaneously.
Vehicles without Distance Assist
DISTRONIC: the autonomous brakin gfunction
is available in the following speed ranges:
R4-65m ph (7-105 km/ h)for moving objects
R4-31m ph (7-50km/h)for stationary
objects
Vehicles with Distance Assist DISTRONIC:
the autonomous braking function is available in
the following speedr anges:
R4-124 mph (7 -200 km/h )for moving
objects
R4-31m ph (7-50km/h)for stationary
objects
Due to the nature of the system ,particularly
complicated but non-critical driving conditions
may als ocaus ethe Autonomou sBraking Func-
tion to intervene. If the autonomous braking function requires a
particularly high braking force, preventative
passenger protection measures (PRE-SAFE
®)
are activated simultaneousl y(Ypage53).
Adaptive Brake Assist
General information
iObservet he "Important safety notes" sec-
tion (Ypag e56).
With the help of adaptive Brake Assist, the dis-
tance warning signalc an detect obstacles that
are in the path of you rvehiclef or an extended
period of time.
If adaptive Brake Assist detects arisk of colli-
sion with the vehicleinf ront, it calculatesthe
braking force necessary to avoi dacollision. If
you apply the brakes forcefully ,adaptive Brake
Assist wil lautomatically increas ethe braking
force to alevels uitabl efor the traffic conditions.
Adaptive Brake Assist provides braking assis-
tance in hazardouss ituations at speeds above
4m ph (7 km/h) .Itusesrada rsensor technology
to assess the traffic situation.
Up to aspeedofa pproximately 155 mph
(250 km/h) ,adaptive Brake Assist is capable of
reacting to moving objects that have already
been detected as such at least once over the
period of observation.
Up to aspeedofa pproximately 44 mph
(70 km/h), adaptive Brake Assist reacts to sta-
tionary obstacles.
If adaptive Brake Assist demands particularly
high braking force, preventative passenger pro-
tection measures (PRE-SAFE
®)a re activated
simultaneousl y(Ypage53).
XKeep the brake pedald epressed until the
emergency braking situation is over.
ABS prevents the wheels from locking.
