High beam assist This feature automatically activates
the high beam at night.
The camera in the windscreen
detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles. High beam can
be triggered or faded out particularly
according to the traffic situation. This
gives the best light distribution
without dazzling other road users.
Once activated, high beam assist
remains active and switches high
beam on and off depending on
surrounding conditions. The latest
setting of the high beam assist will remain after the vehicle is switched
on again.
Activation Activate high beam assist by pressing
f once. High beam is switched on
automatically at a speed above50 km/h. High beam is switched off at a speed below 35 km/h, but high
beam assist remains active.
The green control indicator f

Forward collision alert The forward collision alert may help to
avoid or reduce the harm caused by
front-end crashes.
The forward collision alert uses the front camera system in the
windscreen to detect a vehicle
directly ahead, in your path, within a
distance of approx. 60 m.
A vehicle ahead is indicated by the
control indicator A.
If a vehicle directly ahead is
approached too quickly, a warning
chime is sounded.
Additionally, the driver is notified by a flashing red LED stripe which is
projected on the windscreen in the
driver's field of view.
A precondition is that forward collision alert is not deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation 3 90.
Activation
Forward collision alert operates
automatically above 8 km/h, if it is not deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation menu.
Alerting the driver
The vehicle ahead control indicator
A illuminates green in the instrument
cluster when the system has detected
a vehicle in the driving path.
The control indicator A changes to
yellow when the distance to a
preceding moving vehicle gets too
small or when approaching another
vehicle too rapidly.Caution
The colour lighting of this control
indicator does not correspond to
local traffic laws on following
distance. The driver bears full
responsibility for maintaining safe
following distance according to
applicable traffic rules, weather
and road conditions etc. at all
times.
When the time to a potential collision
with a vehicle in front gets too small
and a collision is imminent, the driver
is notified by a flashing red LED stripe which is projected on the windscreen
in the driver's field of view.

Driving and operating169supplemental use only to reduce
the vehicle speed before a
collision.
The system may not react to
animals. After a sudden lane
change, the system needs a
certain time to detect the next
preceding vehicle.
The driver must always be ready
to take action and apply the brakes
and steer to avoid collisions.
Functionality
If equipped only with front camera the
active emergency braking operates in
a forward gear above walking speed
up to 80 km/h.
A precondition is that the system is
not deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation menu 3 90.
The system includes: ● brake preparation system
● emergency automatic braking ● forward looking brake assist
● front pedestrian protection system
Brake preparation system
When approaching a vehicle ahead
or a pedestrian so quickly that a
collision is likely, the brake
preparation system slightly
pressurises the brakes. This reduces
the response time, when a manual or automatic braking is requested.
The brake system is prepared so that
braking can occur more rapidly.
If equipped only with front camera the system operates up to a speed of
80 km/h.
Emergency automatic braking After activation of brake preparation
system and just before the imminent
collision, this function automatically
applies limited braking to reduce the
impact speed of the collision or
prevent a crash.
Depending on the situation, the
vehicle may automatically brake
moderately or hard. This front
automatic braking can only occur if a
vehicle ahead is detected, indicated
by the vehicle ahead indicator A
3 166. On vehicles with frontpedestrian protection, automatic
braking can also occur when a
pedestrian ahead is detected,
indicated by the pedestrian ahead
indicator 7.
The system operates up to a speed of
80 km/h.
Below a speed of 40 km/h the system can apply full braking.
Emergency automatic braking may slow the vehicle to a complete stop to
try to avoid a potential crash. If this
happens, emergency automatic
braking may engage the electric
parking brake to hold the vehicle at a
stop. To release, push the electric
parking brake switch or firmly depress the accelerator pedal.9 Warning
Emergency automatic braking is
an emergency crash preparation
feature and is not designed to
avoid crashes. Do not rely on the
system to brake the vehicle.
Emergency automatic braking will

Driving and operating181Before changing a lane, always
check all mirrors, look over the
shoulder and use the turn lights.
When the system detects a vehicle in
the side blind zone while driving
forwards, either while passing a
vehicle or being passed, a yellow
warning symbol F will illuminate in
the relevant exterior mirror. If the
driver then activates the turn light, the warning symbol F starts flashing
yellow as a warning not to change
lanes.
When the vehicle is started, both
exterior mirror displays will briefly illuminate to indicate that the system
is operating.
The system can be activated or
deactivated in the Info Display.
Vehicle personalisation 3 90.
Side blind zone assistant will be
deactivated when Lane change alert
is deactivated. Deactivation is
indicated by a message in the Driver Information Centre.
Detection zones
The detection zones start at the rear bumper and extend approx. 3 m
rearwards and to the sides. The
height of the zone is approx. between 0.5 m and 2 m off the ground.
Side blind zone assistant is designed
to ignore stationary objects, e.g.
guardrails, posts, curbs, walls and
beams. Parked vehicles or oncoming
vehicles are not detected.Fault
Occasional false alerts can occur
under normal circumstances and will
increase in wet conditions.
Side blind zone assistant does not
operate when the left or right corners
of the rear bumper are covered with
mud, dirt, snow, ice, slush, or in heavy rainstorms.
Cleaning instructions 3 243.
In the event of a fault in the system or
if the system does not work due to
temporary conditions, a message is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre. Seek the assistance of a
workshop.
Lane change alert
Additional to the side blind zone
assistant 3 180, lane change alert
recognises rapidly approaching
vehicles from behind on parallel lanes
next to your vehicle.
If the vehicle is equipped with lane change alert, side blind zone
assistant is always included.

182Driving and operatingThe system alerts visually in each
exterior mirror when detecting rapidly
approaching vehicles from behind.
The radar distance sensors are
located in the rear bumper.9 Warning
Lane change alert does not
replace driver vision.
Before changing a lane, always
check all mirrors, look over the
shoulder and use the turn light.
When the system detects an
approaching vehicle from behind
which drives considerably faster, the
yellow warning symbol F will
illuminate in the relevant exterior mirror. If the driver then activates the
turn light, the warning symbol F
starts flashing yellow as a warning not to change lanes.
When the vehicle is started, both
exterior mirror displays will briefly
come on to indicate that the system is
operating.
Detection zones
The system sensors cover a zone of
approx. 3.5 m parallel on both vehicle
sides and approx. 3 m rearwards on
side blind zone assistant (A) and
approx. 70 m rearwards on lane
change alert (B) on parallel lanes.
The zones start at each exterior
mirror. The height of the zone is
approx. between 0.5 m and 2 m off the ground.
Deactivation Activation or deactivation of the lane
change alert can be set in the vehicle
personalisation menu in the Info
Display.
