Distance Alert*
04
170* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Five different time intervals can be selected and areshown in the display as 1–5horizontal bars. The greaterthe number of bars, thelonger the time interval. Onebar represents approximately
1 second to the vehicle ahead; 5 bars isapproximately 3 seconds.
NOTE
• The higher your vehicle’s speed, the greater the distance to the vehicleahead, measured in feet (meters), for agiven time interval.
• The set time interval is also used byAdaptive Cruise Control, seepage 160.
WARNING
Only use a time interval that is suitable in current traffic conditions.
Limitations
Distance Alert uses the same radar sensor used by Adaptive Cruise Control and the Col-lision Warning system. See page 165 for
more information on the radar sensor’s limita-tions.
NOTE
Strong sunlight, reflections, extreme light contrasts, the use of sunglasses, or if thedriver is not looking straight ahead maymake the visual warning signal in the wind-shield difficult to see.
WARNING
• Bad weather or winding roads may affect the radar sensor’s capacity todetect vehicles ahead.
• The size of the vehicle ahead, such asa motorcycle, may also make it difficultto detect. This may result in the warn-ing light illuminating at a shorter dis-tance than the one that has been set,or that the light will not come on at all.

180* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Operation
Settings are made by pressing MY CAR on
the center console control panel and using the menus displayed.
Activating/deactivating both warning
signals
To switch the system's audible and visual
signals on or off at the same time, press MY
CAR on the center console control panel and

Collision Warning. If
Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake is on, the system will perform aself-test each time the engine is started bybriefly illuminating the warning light. See page209 for a description of the menu system. When the engine is switched on, the system setting that was being used when it wasswitched off will be the default setting.
NOTE
The auto-brake and pedestrian/cyclist detection features are always on, even ifthe audible and visual warning signalshave been deactivated.
Activating/deactivating the audible warning signal only
The audible warning signal can be activated/ deactivated by pressing MY CAR on the cen-
ter console control panel and going to

Warning sound if risk of
collision.
Setting a warning distanceThis setting determines the distance at which the visual and audible warnings are triggered. Select
Long, Normal or Short by pressing
MY CAR on the center console control panel
and going to
SettingsCar settings
Driver support systemsCollision
Warning
Warning distance.
The warning distance determines the level of sensitivity used by the system. The warning distance
Long provides an earlier warning.
Begin by using Long and if the system gives
too many warnings, try changing to Normal.
WARNING
• The setting Short should only be used
in situations where traffic is light and moving at low speeds.
• Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection withFull Auto Brake alerts the driver to therisk of a collision but this function can-not reduce the driver’s reaction time.
• For the system to be as effective aspossible, it is recommended that Dis-tance Alert be set to 4 or 5, seepage 169.
NOTE
•When Adaptive Cruise Control is used, the warning light and signal will beused by that function, even if thewarnings provided by Pedestrian andCyclist Detection with Full Auto Brakehave been deactivated by the driver.
• In situations where traffic is moving atconsiderably different speeds, or if thevehicle ahead brakes suddenly, warn-ings may be considered to be late, even if the setting
Long has been
selected.
Checking settingsThe current system settings can be checked by pressing MY CAR on the center console

Maintenance
Camera and radar sensor 1
In order to function properly, the camera and radar sensor must be kept clean. Dirt, ice,snow, etc., will reduce the function of thesecomponents. Remove ice and snow when necessary and wash these areas regularly with a suitable carwashing liquid.
Limitations
Strong sunlight, reflections, extreme light contrasts, the use of sunglasses, or if thedriver is not looking straight ahead may makethe visual warning signal in the windshield dif-ficult to see. For this reason, always activatethe audible warning signal. Slippery driving conditions increase braking distance, which can reduce the system'scapacity to avoid a collision. In these condi-tions, the ABS and DSTC systems providethe best possible braking effect while helpingto maintain stability.
NOTE
The visual warning signal may be tempo- rarily disengaged in the event of high pas-senger compartment temperature due tostrong sunlight, etc. If this occurs, theaudible warning signal will be used, even ifit has been deactivated in the menu sys-tem.
WARNING
• In certain situations, the system can- not provide warnings or warnings maybe delayed if traffic conditions or otherexternal factors make it impossible forthe radar sensor or camera to detect apedestrian, a cyclist or a vehicleahead.
• Warnings may not be provided if thedistance to the vehicle ahead is short,or if movements of the steering wheel/brake pedal are great, such as duringactive driving.
• The sensor system has a limited rangefor pedestrians/cyclists and provideswarnings and braking effect mosteffectively at speeds up to 30 mph(50 km/h). For stationary or slow-mov-ing vehicles, the system functions bestif your vehicle’s speed is belowapproximately 45 mph (70 km/h).
• Warnings for stationary or slow-mov-ing vehicles may not be provided indark conditions or in poor visibility.
The Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake system uses the same radar sen-sors as Adaptive Cruise Control. For more
