a collision. The intervention can bring the vehi‐
cle to a complete stop.
▷
In heavy fog, rain, sprayed water or snow‐
fall.
The braking intervention is executed only if ve‐
hicle stability has not been restricted, e.g. by
deactivating the DSC Dynamic Stability Con‐
trol.
▷
▷
In tight curves.
If the driving stability control systems are
limited or deactivated, e.g., DSC OFF.
▷
If, depending on the vehicle equipment
version, the field of view of the camera in
the mirror or the radar sensor is dirty or ob‐
scured.
Above approx. 130 mph/210 km/h the braking
intervention occurs as a brief braking pressure.
No automatic delay occurs.
The braking intervention can be interrupted by
stepping on the accelerator pedal or by ac‐
tively moving the steering wheel.
▷
▷
▷
Up to 10 seconds after the start of the en‐
gine via the Start/Stop button.
During calibration of the camera immedi‐
ately after vehicle delivery.
Object detection can be restricted. Limitations
of the detection range and functional restric‐
tions are to be considered.
If there are constant blinding effects be‐
cause of oncoming light, e.g., from the sun
low in the sky.
System limits
Warning sensitivity
Safety information
The more sensitive the warning settings are,
such as the warning time, the more warnings
are displayed. However, there may also be an
excess of false warnings.
WARNING
The system can react incorrectly or not
at all due to the system limits. There is a risk of
accidents or risk of property damage. Observe
the information regarding the system limits
and actively intervene, if needed.◀
Pedestrian warning with
Approach control
Detection range
Concept
The system's detection potential is limited.
The system can help prevent accidents with
pedestrians.
Thus, a system reaction might not come or
might come late.
When driving at city speeds, the system will is‐
sue a warning if there is imminent danger of a
collision with pedestrians and includes a brak‐
ing function.
E.g., the following situations may not be de‐
tected:
▷
Slow moving vehicles when you approach
them at high speed.
The camera in the area of the rearview mirror
controls the system.
▷
Vehicles that suddenly swerve in front of
you, or sharply decelerating vehicles.
▷
▷
Vehicles with an unusual rear appearance.
Two-wheeled vehicles ahead of you.
General information
With sufficient brightness, the system warns
about possible collision danger with pedes‐
trians starting at approx. 6 mph/10 km/h to ap‐
prox. 35 mph/60 km/h and assists with braking
before a collision.
Functional limitations
The system may not be fully functional in the
following situations:

Controls
Safety
Under those circumstances it reacts to people
who are within the detection range of the sys‐
tem.
Switch all Intelligent Safety systems off prior to
tow-starting/towing.◀
Overview
Detection range
Button in the vehicle
The detection area in front of the vehicle is div‐
ided into two areas:
Intelligent Safety button
▷
Central area, arrow 1, directly in front of the
vehicle.
Camera
▷
Expanded area, arrow 2, to the right and
left.
A collision is imminent if pedestrians are lo‐
cated within the central area. A warning is is‐
sued about pedestrians who are located within
the extended area only if they are moving in
the direction of the central area.
Safety information
WARNING
The camera is installed near the interior mirror.
Indicators and warnings do not relieve
the driver from personal responsibility. Due to
system limits, warnings or reactions of the sys‐
tem may not be output or they may be output
too late or incorrectly. There is a risk of an ac‐
cident. Adjust the driving style to the traffic
conditions. Watch traffic closely and actively
intervene in the respective situations.◀
Keep the windshield in front of the interior mir‐
ror clean and clear.
Switching on/off
Switching on automatically
The system is automatically active after every
driving off.
WARNING
Due to system limits, individual functions
can malfunction during tow-starting/towing
with the Intelligent Safety systems activated,
e.g., approach control warning with light brak‐
ing function. There is a risk of an accident.

Warning with braking function
Display
If a collision with a person detected in this way
is imminent, a warning symbol appears on the
instrument cluster and in the Head-up Display.
Thus, a warning might not be issued or be is‐
sued late.
E.g., the following situations may not be de‐
tected:
The red symbol is displayed and a sig‐
nal sounds.
▷
▷
Partially covered pedestrians.
Pedestrians that are not detected as such
because of the viewing angle or contour.
Intervene immediately by braking or make an
evasive maneuver.
▷
▷
Pedestrians outside of the detection range.
Pedestrians having a body size less than
32 in/80 cm.
Braking intervention
The warning prompts the driver himself/herself
to react. During a warning, the maximum brak‐
ing force is used. Prerequisite for the brake
booster is sufficiently quick and hard stepping
on the brake pedal. The system can assist with
some braking intervention if there is a risk of a
collision. At low speeds vehicles may thus
come to a complete stop.
Functional limitations
The system may not be fully functional or may
not be available in the following situations:
▷
In heavy fog, rain, sprayed water or snow‐
fall.
▷
▷
In tight curves.
The braking intervention is executed only if ve‐
hicle stability has not been restricted, e.g., by
deactivating the DSC Dynamic Stability Con‐
trol.
If the driving stability control systems are
deactivated, e.g., DSC OFF.
▷
If the field of view of the camera or the
windshield are dirty or covered.

Lane departure warning
Concept
Intelligent Safety button
Starting at a specific speed, this system alerts
you when the vehicle on streets with lane
markings is about to leave the lane. This
speed, depending on the country version, is
between 35 mph/55 km/h and
Camera
45 mph/70 km/h.
The steering wheel begins vibrating gently in
the event of warnings. The time of the warning
may vary depending on the current driving sit‐
uation.
The system does not provide a warning if the
turn signal is set before leaving the lane.
The camera is installed near the interior mirror.
Safety information
Keep the windshield in front of the interior mir‐
ror clean and clear.
WARNING
The system does not release the driver
from the personal responsibility to correctly
assess route and traffic situation. There is a
risk of an accident. Adjust the driving style to
the traffic conditions. Watch traffic closely and
actively intervene in the respective situations.
In the event of a warning, do not unnecessarily
jerk the steering wheel.◀
Switching on/off
Switching on automatically
The lane departure warning is automatically
activated after departure, if the function was
switched on the last time the engine was stop‐
ped.
