200Driving and operating9Warning
Active emergency braking is not
designed to apply strong
autonomous braking or to avoid automatically a collision. It is
designed to reduce the vehicle
speed before collision. It may not
react on stopped vehicles,
pedestrians or animals. After a
sudden lane change, the system
needs a certain time to detect the
next preceding vehicle.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver shall always be ready to take action and apply the brakes and steer to avoid
collisions. The system is designed
to work with all occupants wearing their seat belts.
System limitations
The active emergency braking has
limited or no function during rain,
snow or heavy dirt, as the radar
sensor can be covered by a water
film, dust, ice or snow. In case of
sensor blockage, clean the sensor
cover.
In some seldom cases the active
emergency braking system may
provide a short automatic braking in
situations that seem to be
unnecessary, for instance due to
traffic signs in a curve or due to
vehicles in another lane. This is
acceptable operation, the vehicle
does not need service. Firmly apply
the accelerator pedal to override the
automatic braking.
Settings
Settings can be changed in the Auto
collision preparation menu in the
vehicle personalisation, 3 132.

Front-rear parking assist9 Warning
The driver bears full responsibility
for the parking manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area when driving backwards or
forwards while using parking
assist system.
The front-rear parking assist
measures the distance between the
vehicle and obstacles in front and
behind the vehicle. The system gives acoustic signals and display
messages.
The system has four ultrasonic
parking sensors each in the rear and
front bumper.
It uses two different acoustic warning
signals for the front and rear
monitoring areas, each with a
different tone frequency. The signal
for front obstacles sounds via the
front speakers, for rear obstacles it
sounds from the rear speakers.
Parking assist button and operation

operated by D.
Short press of r or D deactivates
or activates the front parking assist.
Long press of D (approx.
one second) activates or deactivates
the advanced parking assist.

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
advanced parking assist.
The advanced parking assist system manoeuvres the driver into a parkingslot by giving instructions in the Driver Information Centre and via acoustic
signals. The driver must control
acceleration, braking, steering and
gearshifting.
The system uses the sensors of the
front-rear parking assist in
combination with two additional
sensors on both sides of the front and rear bumper.
Button D and operation logic
Advanced parking assist and front-
rear parking assist (see previous
description) are both operated by
pressing D.
Short press of D deactivates or
activates the front parking assist.
Long press of D (approx.
one second) activates or deactivates the advanced parking assist.
Button logic to operate the systems is
as follows:
● Front-rear parking assist is active: short press deactivates
front-rear parking assist.
● Front-rear parking assist is active: long press activates
advanced parking assist if a
forward gear is engaged.

● The steering wheel position during parking.
● For some of the instructions a progress bar is shown.A successful parking manoeuvre is
indicated by the 'End position'
symbol.
Always pay attention to the sound of the front-rear parking assist.
Continuous sound means that the
distance to an obstacle is less than
approx. 30 cm.
Changing the parking side
The system is configured to detect
parking slots by default on the
passenger side. To detect parking
slots on the driver side, switch on turn
indicator to the driver side for the
duration of searching.
As soon as turn indicator is switched off, the system searches for parking
slots on the passenger side again.

one second to activate the system
and search for a new parking slot.Basic notes on parking assist
systems9 Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external noise sources may cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles.
Special attention must be paid to
low obstacles which can damage
the lower part of the bumper.
Caution
Performance of the system can be reduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
system can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
Special conditions apply if there
are taller vehicles in the vicinity
(e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans,
vans). Object identification and
correct distance indication in the
upper part of these vehicles
cannot be guaranteed.
Objects with a very small reflection
cross-section, e.g. objects of
narrow size or soft materials, may
not be detected by the system.
Parking assist systems do not
detect objects outside the
detection range.
Notice
The parking assist system can be
activated and deactivated by
changing the settings in the
Info-Display. If a trailer coupling is
attached, it must be selected in the
menu.
