Driving and operating171● if the windscreen has beendamaged close to the camera
● if the front bumper has been damaged
The system is reactivated the next
time the vehicle is switched on.
System limitations In some cases, the active emergencybraking system may provide
automatic braking in situations that
seem to be unnecessary, for instance
in parking garages, due to traffic signs
in a curve or due to vehicles in
another lane. This is normal
operation, the vehicle does not need
a service. Firmly apply the accelerator pedal if the situation and
surroundings permit to override the
automatic braking.In the following cases, active
emergency braking performance is
limited:
● When driving on winding or hilly roads.
● When not all vehicles are detected, especially vehicles witha trailer, tractors, muddy
vehicles, etc.
● When detecting a vehicle when weather limits visibility, such as infog, rain, or snow.
● During nighttime driving.
● When weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow.
● When the sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow,
ice, slush, mud, dirt, windscreen
damage or affected by foreign
items, e.g. stickers.
To avoid malfunction keep the areas
of the camera sensor in the
windscreen always clear of dirt, dust,
ice and snow.Complete attention is always required
while driving, and you should be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes and / or steer the vehicle to
avoid crashes.

Front pedestrian protection The front pedestrian protection
system may help avoid or reduce the
harm caused by front-end crashes
with nearby pedestrians when driving in a forward gear.

directly ahead in your path.

Vehicle care243To prevent the entry of exhaust gases
from the towing vehicle, switch on the
air recirculation and close the
windows.
Seek the assistance of a workshop.
After towing, unscrew the towing eye. Insert cap at the bottom and close.
Towing another vehicle The vehicle is neither designed nor
intended to tow a trailer or another vehicle.Appearance care
Exterior care LocksThe locks are lubricated at the factory
using a high quality lock cylinder
grease. Use de-icing agent only when absolutely necessary, as this has a
degreasing effect and impairs lock
function. After using a de-icing agent,
have the locks regreased by a
workshop.
WashingThe paintwork of your vehicle is
exposed to environmental influences.
Wash and wax your vehicle regularly.
When using automatic vehicle
washes, select a programme that
includes waxing.
Do not apply waxes or polishes to
uncoated plastic, vinyl, rubber,
decals, simulated wood, or flat paint
as damage can occur.Bird droppings, dead insects, resin,
pollen and the like should be cleaned
off immediately, as they contain
aggressive constituents which can cause paint damage.
If using a vehicle wash, comply with
the vehicle wash manufacturer's instructions. The windscreen wiperand rear window wiper must be
switched off. Remove external
accessories such as roof racks etc.
If you wash your vehicle by hand,
make sure that the insides of the
wheel housings are also thoroughly
rinsed out.
Clean edges and folds on opened
doors and the bonnet as well as the
areas they cover.
Clean bright metal mouldings with a
cleaning solution approved for
aluminium to avoid damages.Caution
Always use a cleaning agent with
a pH value of four to nine.
Do not use cleaning agents on hot surfaces.
