or only detected with a delay, for instance:
▷
Vehicle driving slowly in front and being ap-
proached at high speed.
▷

Detection range
General information
The detection range in front of the vehicle is
divided into two areas:
▷
Central area, arrow 1, directly in front of the
vehicle.
Sensors detect the traffic situation in their de-
tection range.
▷
Extended area, arrows 2, to the right and
left of the central area.
The system issues a warning of a possible
risk of collision with pedestrians or cyclists at
speeds above approx. 3 mph/5 km/h.
There is a risk of collision if persons, e.g.,
pedestrians or cyclists, are located within the
central area. A warning is issued about pedes-
trians who are located within the extended
area only if they are moving in the direction of
the central area.
Safety information
Follow the safety information in Chapter “For-
ward Collision Mitigation”.
The following situations may not be detected,
for instance:
Display in the instrument cluster
If there is a risk of collision with a detected pe-
destrian or cyclist, a warning light is displayed.
▷
▷
Partially covered pedestrians or bikes.
Pedestrians that are not detected as such
because of their contour or posture.
Icon
