General information
The Active Driving Assistance package
consists of DISTRONIC PLUS ( Y page 293),
Active Blind Spot Assist ( Y page 320) and
Active Lane Keeping Assist ( Y page 323).
Active Blind Spot Assist
Important safety guidelines
Active Blind Spot Assist uses a radar sensor
system to monitor the side areas of your
vehicle. In addition, it uses the radar sensor
system to monitor the front area. Active Blind
Spot Assist provides assistance at speeds
higher than about 20 mph (30 km/h). A
warning lamp in the exterior mirror calls your
attention to a vehicle or to certain obstacles
in the area monitored. If you then indicate a
turn towards that side before changing lanes,
you will also receive visual and audible
collision warnings. If a risk of lateral collision
is detected, corrective braking may help you
avoid a collision.GWarning
Active Blind Spot Assist is only an aid, and
may detect vehicles/obstacles incorrectly or
not at all.
The system may be impaired or may not
function if:
R there is poor visibility, e.g. due to snow,
rain, fog or spray.
R the rear and/or front sensors are dirty.
R the road is narrow and winding.
Active Blind Spot Assist may not detect
narrow vehicles, such as motorcycles or
bicycles, or only detect them too late. It
cannot detect vehicles that are overtaken at
a small distance and then enter the blind spot
area.
Active Blind Spot Assist cannot detect road
and traffic conditions. It is not a substitute for
attentive driving. You are responsible for the

Cleaning Night View Assist Plus
! Never clean the camera lens. When
cleaning the field of vision of the driving
systems, make sure that you do not spray
glass cleaner on the camera lens. If the
camera lens is dirty, visit a qualified
specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
GWarning!
Please do not forget that your primary
responsibility is to drive the vehicle. A driver's
attention to the road must always be his/her
primary focus when driving. For your safety
and the safety of others, stop before trying to
remove window fogging or cleaning the
window in front of the Night View Assist Plus
camera.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet (approximately
14 m) every second.

Cleaning the plastic trim
GWarning
When cleaning the steering wheel boss and
dashboard, do not use cockpit sprays or
cleaning agents containing solvents. Cleaning
agents containing solvents cause the surface
to become porous, and as a result, plastic
parts may break away and be thrown around
the interior when an air bag is deployed, which
may result in severe injuries.
! Do not affix the following to plastic
surfaces:
Rstickers
Rfilms
Rscented oil bottles or similar items
You can otherwise damage the plastic.
! Do not allow cosmetics, insect repellent
or sunscreen to come into contact with the
