played on the left in the driver display.
Vehicles with COMAND and a navigation sys-
tem*: the radar sensor system is switched off
automatically in the vicinity of radio telescope
facilities (Y page 411).
For PRE-SAFE ®
Brake to assist you when driv-
ing, the radar sensor system must be
switched on and operational.
PRE-SAFE ®
Brake does not always clearly

SAFE ®

at any time if:
R an acoustic and visual warning occurs
R the vehicle brakes gently
To end this you can either depress the accel-
erator pedal further, activate kickdown or
release the brake pedal.
The braking intervention of PRE-SAFE ®
Brake
is ended automatically if:
R you manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle.
R you drive slower than approximately
15 km/h.
R there is no longer an obstacle detected in
front of your vehicle.
R there is no longer any danger of a collision.
i While Distronic Plus is activated, PRE-
SAFE ®
Brake remains passive.
Following a collision or crash-related damage
to the front end of the vehicle, have the con-
figuration and operation of the radar sensors
checked. Choose a qualified specialist work-
shop for this which has the necessary spe-
cialist knowledge and tools for the work
required. Mercedes-Benz recommends that
you use a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for
this purpose. Anti-theft systems

Introduction
Operating safety
G
Risk of accident
Your attention must always be focused on the
traffic conditions.
Only use COMAND or the telephone* when
the road and traffic conditions permit.
Bear in mind that, at a speed of only
50 km/h, your vehicle covers a distance of
nearly 14 m per second. The navigation sys-
tem* will not provide you with information
about stop signs, give-way signs, traffic regu-
lations or road safety features. It is up to you
to pay attention to these while driving the
vehicle. Only enter a new destination when
the vehicle is stationary. G

you read the "BlueHYBRID" supplement. You
may otherwise fail to detect dangers.
