City Braking function
The concept
The system can help to prevent accidents. If an
accident cannot be prevented, the system
helps to reduce the collision speed.
The system issues a warning if there is immi‐
nent danger of a collision and if so brakes inde‐
pendently.
The automatic braking intervention is done
with limited force and duration.
The system is controlled via a camera in the
base of the mirror.
The collision warning is available even if cruise
control has been deactivated.
When the vehicle is intentionally brought close to a vehicle, the collision warning is delayed to
avoid false warnings.
General information The system issues a two-phase warning of a
danger of collision with vehicles at speeds
above approx. 3 mph/5 km/h. The time of
these warnings may vary depending on the
current driving situation.
Up to approx. 35 mph/60 km/h a braking inter‐
vention occurs when appropriate.
Detection range
Vehicles are observed when they are traveling
in the same direction of movement if they are

Warning with braking function Note Adapting your speed and driving style
The warning does not relieve the driver of
the responsibility to adapt his or her driving
speed and style to the traffic conditions. ◀

SymbolMeasureThe vehicle lights up red: prewarning.
Increase braking and distance.The vehicle flashes red and an acous‐
tic signal sounds: acute warning.
You are requested to intervene by
braking or making an evasive maneu‐
ver.
Braking intervention
The warning prompts the driver himself to in‐
tervene. During a warning, the maximum brak‐
ing force is used. A prerequisite for the brake
booster is a sufficiently fast and sufficiently
strong actuation of the brake pedal. In addi‐
tion, if there is a risk of collision, the system can
assist with a slight braking intervention. The in‐
tervention can bring a vehicle traveling at slow
speed to a complete stop.
Manual transmission: During a braking inter‐
vention up until reaching a complete stop, the
engine may be shut down.
The braking intervention is executed only if DSC
Dynamic Stability Control is switched on and
Dynamic Traction Control DTC is activated.
The braking intervention can be interrupted by
pressing on the accelerator pedal or by actively
moving the steering wheel.
Tow-starting and towing
When tow-starting and towing the vehi‐
cle, switch off the Intelligent Safety systems;
otherwise, improper behavior of the braking
function of individual systems could result in an
accident. ◀
System limits Be alert
Due to system limitations, warnings may
be not be issued at all, or may be issued late or
improperly. Therefore, always be alert and
ready to intervene; otherwise, there is the dan‐
ger of an accident occurring. ◀
Detection range The system's detection capabilities are limited.
This may result in the warning not being issued
or being issued late.
For example, the following situations may not
be detected:▷Slow moving vehicles when you approach
them at high speed.▷Vehicles that suddenly swerve in front of
you or sharply decelerating vehicles.▷Vehicles with an unusual rear appearance.▷Two-wheeled vehicles ahead of you.▷Pedestrians.
Functional limitations
The system may not be fully functional in the
following situations:
▷In heavy fog, rain, sprayed water or snow‐
fall.▷In tight curves.▷If the driving stability control systems are
limited or deactivated, for example, DSC
OFF.▷If the camera in the mirror is dirty or ob‐
scured.▷During calibration of the camera immedi‐
ately after vehicle shipment.▷If there is constant dimming because of on‐
coming light, for example, from the sun low
in the sky.
Prewarning sensitivity
Depending on the set prewarning time, this
may result in increased false warnings.

Pedestrian warning with
city braking function
The concept
The system can help to prevent accidents with
pedestrians.
The system issues a warning in the city driving
speed area if there is imminent danger of a col‐
lision with pedestrians and includes a braking
function.
The system is controlled via the camera in the
base of the interior mirror.
General information
The system issues a warning with brightness
staring at approx. 6 mph/10 km/h to approx.
35 mph/60 km/h regarding a possible risk of
collision with pedestrians and assists with a
brake intervention shortly before a collision.
It responds to persons that are within the de‐
tection range of the system.
Detection range
The detection area in front of the vehicle is div‐
ided into two areas.
▷Central area, arrow 1, directly in front of the
vehicle.▷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.

Driving comfortVehicle equipment
All standard, country-specific and optional
equipment that is offered in the model series is
described in this chapter. Therefore, equipment
is also described that is not available in a vehi‐
cle, e. g., because of the selected optional
equipment or country variant. This also applies
for safety-related functions and systems.
Camera-based cruise con‐
trol, ACC
The concept
This system can be used to select a desired
speed that the vehicle will maintain automati‐
cally on clear roads.
To the extent possible, the system automati‐
cally adjusts the speed to a slower vehicle
ahead of you.
A camera on the interior rear view mirror is
used to detect vehicles driving ahead.
The distance that the vehicle maintains to the
vehicle ahead of you can be varied.
For safety reasons, it depends on the speed.
To maintain a certain distance, the system au‐
tomatically decelerates, applies the brakes
lightly, or accelerates again if the vehicle ahead
begins moving faster.
As soon as the road is clear, it accelerates to the
desired speed.
The speed is also maintained on downhill gradi‐
ents, but may not be maintained on uphill
slopes if engine power is insufficient.
General information
Depending on the set drive mode, refer to
page 88, the characteristics of the cruise con‐
trol can change in certain areas.Hints
Personal responsibility
Even an active system does not release
the driver from personal responsibility for the
driving process, especially for lane tracking, adaptation of speed, distance and driving style
to the traffic conditions.
Because of technical system limits, the system
cannot independently react appropriately in all
traffic situations.
Monitor the driving process, the surrounding
area and what is occurring in traffic continu‐
ously and attentively and actively intervene as
required, e.g., by braking, steering or making
an evasive maneuver. ◀
Unfavorable weather conditions
Unfavorable weather conditions, e.g.,
rain, snowfall or slush, may result in worsened
detection of vehicles as well as short-term in‐
terruptions with already detected vehicles.
Drive attentively, and react to the current traffic
events. Intervene actively when necessary, e.g.,
by braking, steering or making an evasive ma‐
neuver, otherwise, there is danger of an acci‐
dent. ◀

Universal garage dooropener
The concept
The universal garage door opener can operate
up to 3 functions of remote-controlled systems
such as garage door drives or lighting systems.
The universal garage door opener replaces up
to 3 different hand-held transmitters. To oper‐
ate the remote control, the buttons on the inte‐
rior rearview mirror must be programmed with
the desired functions. The hand-held transmit‐
ter for the particular system is required in order
to program the remote control.
During programming
During programming and before activat‐
ing a device using the integrated universal re‐
mote control, ensure that there are no people,
animals, or objects in the range of movement
of the remote-controlled device; otherwise,
there is a risk of injury or damage.
Also follow the safety instructions of the hand-
held transmitter. ◀
Before selling the vehicle, delete the stored
functions for the sake of security.Compatibility
If this symbol is printed on the packag‐
ing or in the instructions of the system
to be controlled, the system is generally
compatible with the universal garage door
opener.

Special feature of the alternating-code
wireless system
If you are unable to operate the system after
repeated programming, please check if the sys‐
tem to be controlled features an alternating-
code system.
Read the system's operating manual, or press
the programmed button on the interior rear‐
view mirror longer. If the LED on the interior
rearview mirror starts flashing rapidly and then
stays lit constantly for 2 seconds, the system
features an alternating-code system. Flashing
and continuous illumination of the LED will re‐
peat for approximately 20 seconds.
For systems with an alternating-code system,
the universal garage door opener and the sys‐
tem also have to be synchronized.
Please read the operating manual of the sys‐
tem being set up for information on how to
synchronize the system.
