adaptive mode, adjusting systems to
both comfort and sport settings
depending on driving style and driving
situation.
Adaptive drive mode control
Within each manually selected driving mode SPORT , TOUR or AUTO , Drive
Mode Control (DMC) detects and
analyses continuously the driving situation and the driver's driving style.
If necessary, DMC automatically
adjusts damping and steering for the
duration of the occuring situation.

186Driving and operatingIf, for example, normal settings are
active in AUTO mode and DMC
detects a sporty driving behaviour, it
automatically changes systems into
sporty settings unless the driver
deselects sporty damping or steering
in the Sport Mode Customisation .
If, for another example, comfort settings are active in TOUR mode
and whilst driving on a winding road a sudden hard brake is necessary,DMC will detect the dynamic vehicle
condition and changes the settings
for suspension back to normal
(default) setting to enhance vehicle
stability.
When the driving characteristic or the
dynamic vehicle state returns to the
former state, DMC will change to
preselected settings.Flex Ride visualisation menu

General information9 Warning
Forward collision alert is just a
warning system and does not
apply the brakes. When
approaching a vehicle ahead too
rapidly, it may not provide you
enough time to avoid a collision.
The driver accepts full
responsibility for the appropriate
following distance based on traffic, weather and visibility conditions.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver must always be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes.
System limitations
Forward collision alert is designed to warn on vehicles only, but may reactalso to other objects.
In the following cases, Forward
collision alert may not detect a vehicle ahead or sensor performance is
limited:
● Driving on winding or hilly roads.● During nighttime driving.
● Weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● The sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt, windscreen damage or
affected by foreign items, e.g.
stickers.
Following distance
indication
The following distance indication
displays the distance to a preceding
moving vehicle. The front camera in
the windscreen is used to detect the
distance of a vehicle directly ahead in
the vehicle's path. It is active at
speeds above 40 km/h.
When a preceding vehicle is detected ahead, the distance is indicated inseconds, displayed on a page in the
Driver Information Centre.On Baselevel display, choose Info
Menu ? via MENU on the turn
signal lever and turn the adjuster
wheel to choose following distance
indication page, 3 113
On Mid- and Uplevel display, select
Info menu via steering wheel buttons
and press å to select following
distance indication 3 113.
The minimum indicated distance is 0.5 seconds.
If there is no vehicle ahead or the vehicle ahead is out of range, two
dashes will be displayed: -.- sec.

202Driving and operating
If Adaptive cruise control is active,
this page shows the alert sensitivity
setting instead of following distance setting. 3 190.
System limitations In the following cases, following
distance indication sensor
performance is limited:
● Driving on winding or hilly roads.● During nighttime driving.
● Weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow.
● The sensor is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt, windscreen
damage or affected by foreign
items, e.g. stickers.
Active emergency braking Active emergency braking can help toreduce the damage and injury from
crashes with vehicles, pedestrians and obstacles directly ahead, when a
collision can no longer be avoided
either by manual braking or by
steering. Before the active
emergency braking applies, the driver
is warned by the Forward collision
alert 3 198 or the Front pedestrian
protection alert 3 205.
The feature uses various inputs (e.g.
camera sensor, radar sensor, brake
pressure, vehicle speed) to calculate
the probability of a frontal collision.9 Warning
This system is not intended to
replace the driver responsibility for driving the vehicle and looking
ahead. Its function is limited to
supplemental 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 forward gear above walking speed up
to 85 km/h.
With radar sensor active emergency
braking operates in forward gear
above walking speed at all speeds.

Driving and operating211Advanced parking assist9Warning
The driver bears full responsibility
for accepting the parking slot
suggested by the system and the
parking manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area in all directions when using
the advanced parking assist.
The advanced parking assist
measures a suitable parking slot
while passing, calculates the
trajectory and automatically steers
the vehicle into a parallel or
perpendicular parking slot.
Instructions are given in the Driver
Information Centre 3 113 or,
depending on the version, on the Info- Display 3 120 , supported by acoustic
signals.
In vehicles with manual transmission, the driver must control acceleration,
braking and gear shifting, while
steering is done automatically.
In vehicles with automatic
transmission, the driver must control
acceleration and gear shifting, while
braking and steering is done
automatically.
Advanced parking assist is always
combined with front-rear parking assist. Both systems use the same
sensors in the front and rear bumper.
The system has six ultrasonic parking sensors each in both the rear and
front bumper.
Activation of advanced parking assist
Advanced parking assist can only be
activated when driving forwards.
When searching for a parking slot, the system is ready to operate with a
short press of (.
The system recognises and
memorises ten metres for parallel parking slots or six metres for
perpendicular parking slots in the
parking assist mode.
The system can only be activated at
a speed up to 30 km/h and the system
searches for a parking slot at a speed up to 30 km/h.
The maximum allowed parallel
distance between the vehicle and a
row of parked cars is 1.8 metres for
parallel parking and 2.5 metres for
perpendicular parking.

Driving and operating213
When a slot is detected, a visual
feedback on the Colour-Info-Display
and an acoustic signal is given.
If the driver does not stop the vehicle after a parking slot is proposed, the
system starts to search for another
suitable parking slot.
Park guiding mode
The parking slot suggestion of the system is accepted when the vehicle
is stopped by the driver within ten
metres for parallel parking slots or
six metres for perpendicular parking
slots after the Stop message is given.
The system calculates the optimal
path into the parking slot.A brief vibration in the steering wheel
after engaging reverse gear indicates
that the steering is controlled by the
system. Then the vehicle with manual transmission is steered into the slot
automatically by giving the driver
detailed instructions for braking,
accelerating and gear shifting. With
automatic transmission the vehicle is
steered into the slot automatically by
giving the driver detailed instructions for accelerating and shifting forward
or reversing. The driver must keep
hands away from the steering wheel.
During park guiding mode the
manoeuvring speed is limited.
Always pay attention to the sound of
the front-rear parking assist.
Continuous sound indicates that the
distance to an obstacle is less than
approx. 30 cm.
If, for any reason, the driver must take over control of the steering, hold the
steering wheel only at the outer edge.
Automatic steering is cancelled in this event.Display indication
The instructions on the display show:
● General hints and warning messages.
● A hint when driving faster than 30 km/h during parking slot
searching mode.
● The demand to stop the vehicle, when a parking slot is detected.
● The direction of driving during the
parking manoeuvre.
● The demand to shift into reverse or first gear, or R or D with
automatic transmission.
● The demand to stop or to drive slowly.
● For some of the instructions a progress bar is shown in the
Driver Information Centre.
● The successful completion of the
parking manoeuvre indicated by
a pop-up symbol and a chime.
● The cancelling of a parking manoeuvre.
