GWarning
Depending on the vehicle speed, PRE-SAFE®
Brake brakes your vehicle with a maximum of
13 ft/s 2
(4 m/s 2
) before a possible hard stop.
This corresponds to about 40 % of the
maximum deceleration ability of your vehicle.
The driver must apply the brakes additionally
in order to prevent a collision. The self-acting
hard stop will be initiated when the imminent
danger of a collision exists, e.g. when an
evasive maneuver cannot avoid an accident.
In order to maintain the appropriate distance
to the vehicle in front and thus prevent a
collision, you must apply the brakes yourself.
At speeds up to approximately
40 mph (70 km/h), PRE-SAFE ®
Brake can
also detect stationary obstacles, for example
stopped or parked vehicles.
GWarning!
If you do not receive visual or acoustic
warning signals, the PRE-SAFE ®
Brake may
R not have recognized the collision risk
R have been deactivated
R be malfunctioning
Apply the brakes yourself to avoid a collision.
XTo activate: activate PRE-SAFE ®
Brake in
the on-board computer ( Y page 207).
The Ä symbol appears in the lower
multifunction display, as long as the HOLD
function is not activated ( Y page 184).
On vehicles with parking guidance, the P
gear must be engaged for the icon to be
displayed.
For PRE-SAFE ®
Brake to assist you when
driving, the radar sensor system must be
switched on and operational.
PRE-SAFE ®
Brake does not always detect
complex traffic situations properly. You can
terminate the braking action of PRE-SAFE ®
Brake in a non-critical driving situation at any
time if:
R an acoustic and visual warning occurs
R the vehicle brakes
To end this, you can either depress the
accelerator pedal further, activate kickdown
or release the brake pedal.
The braking action of PRE-SAFE ®
Brake is
ended automatically if:
R you maneuver to avoid the obstacle
R you drive slower than approximately
9 mph (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
Following a collision or accident-related
damage to the front end of the vehicle, have
the configuration and operation of the radar
sensors checked. Choose a qualified
specialist workshop for this which has the
necessary specialist knowledge and tools for
the work required. Mercedes-Benz
recommends that you use an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center for this purpose.
