132Driving and operatingOn vehicles equipped with radar
sensor and front camera, the active
emergency braking operates from
3 mph to 87 mph when a vehicle has
been detected.
Active emergency braking only works when the seat belts of the front
passengers are fastened.
The system includes: ● brake preparation system
● emergency automatic braking ● smart brake assist
● forward collision alert
● front pedestrian protection
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 braking is
requested.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
prohibit a crash.
If active emergency braking is
applied, m flashes in the instrument
cluster.
Emergency automatic braking can
only occur if a vehicle or a pedestrian
ahead is detected.
Forward collision alert 3 134
Front pedestrian protection 3 136
Below a speed of 19 mph, emergency automatic braking may slow down thevehicle to a complete stop. If the
speed exceeds 19 mph, emergency
automatic braking reduces the speed. However, the driver must apply the
brake.
Emergency automatic braking may slow the vehicle to a complete stop to
try to avoid a potential crash.● Automatic transmission: If the vehicle comes to a complete
stop, automatic braking is
maintained for up to two
seconds. Keep the brake pedal
depressed to prevent the vehicle
from starting off again.
● Manual transmission: If the vehicle comes to a complete
stop, the engine may stall.
Operation of the function may be felt
by a slight vibration in the brake
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
not brake outside of its operating speed range and only responds to
detected vehicles and
pedestrians.

142Driving and operating
When a free slot is detected, a visual
feedback on the Info Display and a
first acoustic signal are given. Drive
slowly forwards. When the second
acoustic signal is given, stop the
vehicle, select reverse gear, release
the steering wheel and start moving
slowly. A visual feedback is given on
the Info Display.Move forwards and backwards while
observing the warnings of the parking
assist until the end of manoeuvre is
indicated.
Entry into a perpendicular parking
slot
Activation
Slow down the vehicle speed below 19 mph.
To search for a parking slot, activate
the system in the Info Display 3 74.
Select the perpendicular parking slot
menu.
Select parking side by switching on
the turn light on the respective side.
The allowed parallel distance
between the vehicle and a row of
parked cars is between 0.5 m and
1.5 m.
When several successive slots are found, the vehicle will be directed
towards the last one.
When a free slot is detected, a visual
feedback on the Info Display and an
acoustic signal are given. Stop the
vehicle, select reverse gear, release
the steering wheel and start moving
without exceeding 4 mph.

Driving and operating143
Move forwards and backwards as
instructed by observing the warnings of the parking assist and paying
attention to the acoustic signals until
the end of manoeuvre is indicated.
During the parking manoeuvre, the
system is automatically deactivated
once the rear of the vehicle is within
50 cm of an obstacle.
Exiting a parallel parking slot
Activation
When exiting a parallel parking slot,
activate the system in the Info Display 3 74.
Select the exiting a parallel parking
slot menu.
Select exit side by switching on the
respective turn light.

release the steering wheel and start
moving without exceeding 3 mph.
Move forwards and backwards while
observing the warnings of the parking
assist until the end of manoeuvre is
indicated.
The manoeuvre is complete when the vehicle's front wheels are out of the
parking slot.
After deactivation check control over
the vehicle.
Display indication
The instructions on the display show: ● general hints and warning messages
● 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
● the demand to stop or to drive slowly
● the successful completion of the parking manoeuvre indicated bya pop-up symbol and a chime
● the cancelling of a parking manoeuvre
Deactivation
The current park assist manoeuvre is cancelled via the button to return to
the previous screen in the Info
Display. To deactivate the system
completely, press e in the centre
console.

144Driving and operatingThe system is deactivated
automatically:
● if the ignition is switched off
● if stalling the engine
● if no manoeuvre is started within 5 minutes of selection of the type
of manoeuvre
● after a prolonged stop of the vehicle during a manoeuvre
● activating the turn light on the opposite side to that of the
manoeuvre
● if the electronic stability control is
triggered
● if the speed of the vehicle exceeds the stated limit
● when the driver interrupts movement of the steering wheel
● after ten manoeuvres to enter or exit a a parallel parking slot or
after seven manoeuvres to enter
a perpendicular parking slot
● by opening the driver's door
● if one of the front wheels encounters an obstacle
● parking manoeuvre successfully endedDeactivation by the driver or by the
system during manoeuvring will be indicated on the display. Additionally, a chime sounds.
The system is switched off
automatically when towing an
electrically connected trailer, bicycle
carrier, etc.
Contact your dealer to switch off the
system for a prolonged period.
Fault
In the event of a fault, a message is
displayed in the Colour Info Display,
accompanied by an acoustic signal.
In the event of a fault in the powersteering, C illuminates and a
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.9 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.

166Vehicle care
Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.
Laying up the vehicle for more than
four weeks can lead to battery
discharge. Disconnect the clamp from the negative terminal of the vehicle
battery.
Ensure the ignition is switched off
before connecting or disconnecting
the vehicle battery.
Battery discharge protection 3 87.
Replacing the vehicle battery Notice
Any deviation from the instructions
given in this section may lead to
temporary deactivation or
disturbance of the stop-start system.
When the vehicle battery is being
replaced, please ensure that there
are no open ventilation holes in the
vicinity of the positive terminal. If a
ventilation hole is open in this area, it
must be closed off with a dummy cap, and the ventilation in the vicinity of the
negative terminal must be opened.
Ensure that the battery is always
replaced by the same type of battery.
The vehicle battery has to be
replaced by a workshop.
Stop-start system 3 102.
Charging the vehicle battery9 Warning
On vehicles with stop-start
system, ensure that the charging potential does not exceed 14.6 V
when using a battery charger.
Otherwise the vehicle battery may be damaged.
Jump starting 3 189.
Discharge protection
Battery voltage
When the vehicle battery voltage is
running low, a warning message will
appear in the Driver Information
Centre.
When the vehicle is being driven, the
load reduction function temporarily
deactivates certain functions, such as
the air conditioning, the heated rear
window, heated steering wheel, etc.
The deactivated functions are
reactivated automatically as soon as
conditions permit.
Idle boost
If charging of the vehicle battery is
required due to battery condition, the
power output of the generator must
be increased. This will be achieved by
an idle boost which may be audible.
A message appears in the Driver
Information Centre.
Power outlet
The power outlets are deactivated in
the event of low vehicle battery
voltage.

Vehicle care179The driver is responsible for correct
adjustment of tyre pressure.9 Warning
If the pressure is too low, this can
result in considerable tyre warm-
up and internal damage, leading to tread separation and even to tyre
blow-out at high speeds.
9 Warning
For specific tyres the
recommended tyre pressure as
shown in the tyre pressure table may exceed the maximum tyre
pressure as indicated on the tyre.
Never exceed the maximum tyre
pressure as indicated on the tyre.
Temperature dependency
The tyre pressure depends on the
temperature of the tyre. During
driving, tyre temperature and
pressure increase. Tyre pressure
values provided on the tyre
information label and tyre pressure
chart are valid for cold tyres, which means at 20 °C.
The pressure increases by nearly
1.5 psi for a 10 °C temperature
increase. This must be considered
when warm tyres are checked.
Tyre deflation detectionsystem
The tyre deflation detection system
continually checks the rotation speed
of all four wheels and warns on low
tyre pressure condition once vehicle
is driving. This is achieved by
comparing tyre rolling circumference
with reference values and further
signals.
If a tyre loses pressure the control
indicator w illuminates and a warning
message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre.
Control indicator w 3 70.
In this case reduce speed, avoid
sharp cornering and strong braking.
Stop at next safe opportunity and
check tyre pressure.After adjusting tyre pressure initialise
system to extinguish the control
indicator and restart system.
If the failure continues to be
displayed, contact a workshop. The
system is inoperable when ABS or
ESC has a malfunction or a
temporary spare wheel is used. Once
the tyre has been refitted, check the
tyre pressure with cold tyres and
initialise the system.Caution
Deflation detection system warns
just about low tyre pressure
condition and does not replace
regular tyre maintenance by the
driver.
System initialisation
After tyre pressure correction or
wheel change, the system must be
initialised to learn new circumference
reference values:
