Driving and operating203If equipped only with front camera the
system operates up to a speed of 53
mph.9 Warning
Active emergency braking is not
designed to apply hard
autonomous braking or to
automatically avoid a collision. It is designed to reduce the vehicle
speed before a collision. It may not
react to 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 must 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.
Intelligent Brake Assist
If the vehicle is equipped with radar
sensor Intelligent brake assist may
activate when the brake pedal is
applied quickly by providing a boost
to braking based on the speed of
approach and distance to a vehicle
ahead.
Minor brake pedal pulsations or pedal movement during this time is normal
and the brake pedal should continue
to be applied as needed. Intelligent
brake assist will automatically
disengage only when the brake pedal is released.9 Warning
Intelligent brake assist may
increase vehicle braking in
situations when it may not be
necessary. You could block the
flow of traffic. If this occurs, take
your foot off the brake pedal and
then apply the brakes as needed.

Deactivation
Active emergency braking can be
deactivated in the personalisation
menu 3 125. If deactivated a
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
System limitations In some cases, the active emergencybraking system may provide an
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 service. Firmly apply the accelerator
pedal to override the automatic
braking if the situation and the
surroundings permit.
In the following cases, Active
emergency braking performance is limited:
● Driving on winding or hilly roads.
● Detecting all vehicles, especially vehicles with a trailer, tractors,
muddy vehicles, etc.

204Driving and operating● Detecting a vehicle whenweather limits visibility, such as in
fog, rain, or snow.
● 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.
To avoid malfunction keep the areas
of the camera sensor in the
windscreen and the radar sensor in
the radiator grille always clean from
dirt, dust, ice and snow.
Complete attention is always required while driving, and you should beready to take action and apply the
brakes and/or steer the vehicle to
avoid crashes.
Fault
In case the system requires a service, a message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.If the system does not work as it
should do, vehicle messages are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.

Front pedestrian protection
Front pedestrian protection may help
to avoid or reduce the harm caused
by front-end crashes with nearby
pedestrians when driving in a forward gear.
The system uses the front camera in
the windscreen to detect a pedestrian
directly ahead, in your path.
Front pedestrian protection can
detect and alert to pedestrians in a
forward gear at speeds between 5
mph and 50 mph. Additionally Front
pedestrian protection can provide a
boost to braking or automatically
brake the vehicle.
During daytime driving, the system detects pedestrians up to a distance
of approximately 40 metres. During
nighttime driving, system
performance is limited.Front pedestrian protection can be set to Off, Alert, or Alert & Brake in
vehicle personalisation 3 125.9 Danger
Front pedestrian braking does not
provide an alert or automatically
brake the vehicle, unless it detects
a pedestrian.
The system may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
when the pedestrian is not directly ahead, not fully visible, not
standing upright, or when part of a
group.
Front pedestrian protection includes:
● detecting front pedestrian ahead● front pedestrian alert
● automatic braking

Driving and operating205Detecting front pedestrian ahead
A pedestrian ahead up to a distance
of approximately 40 m is indicated by the control indicator 7 in the
instrument cluster. On vehicles with
head-up display, 7 is projected on the
windscreen.
Front pedestrian alert
When approaching a detected
pedestrian too quickly, a red flashing
LED alert or the pop-up symbol 7 in
the head-up display is projected on the windscreen in the driver's field of
view. A warning chime is provided.
The brake system may prepare for
driver braking to occur more rapidly
which can cause a brief, mild
deceleration. Continue to apply the
brake pedal as required.
Cruise control or Adaptive cruise
control may be disengaged when the
Front pedestrian alert occurs.
Automatic braking If a crash into a pedestrian directly
ahead is imminent, and the brakes
have not been applied, Automatic
braking may automatically brake
moderately or brake hard. This can
help to avoid some very low speed
pedestrian crashes or reduce
pedestrian injury.
Automatic braking levels may be reduced under certain conditions,
such as higher speeds.If this happens, automatic braking
may engage the Electric parking
brake to hold the vehicle at a stop.
Release the parking brake. A firm
press of the accelerator pedal will
also release Automatic braking and
Electric parking brake 3 179.
This system includes Intelligent brake assist, and the Emergency automatic
braking system may also respond to
pedestrians. See Active emergency
braking 3 201.
Automatic braking can be disabled in
the vehicle personalisation menu
3 125.
General information9 Warning
The driver must always be ready
to take action and apply the brakes and steer to avoid collisions.

206Driving and operating9Warning
Front pedestrian braking may alert
or automatically brake the vehicle
suddenly in situations where it is
unexpected and undesired. It
could falsely alert or brake for
objects similar in shape or size to
pedestrians, including shadows.
This is normal operation and the
vehicle does not need a service.
To override Automatic braking,
firmly depress the accelerator
pedal, if it is safe to do so.

the vehicle into a parallel or
perpendicular parking slot.
Instructions are given in the Driver
Information Centre 3 112 or,
depending on the version, on the Info- Display 3 119 , 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

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.
