Activate ATTENTION ASSIST using the on-
board computer (Y page 284).
When ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated, the 00D7 symbol appears in the multifunction
display in the assistance graphic display.
ATTENTION ASSIST is activated automatically
after the engine is started up.
Warning and display messages in the
multifunction display If fatigue or increasing lapses in concentra-
tion are detected, a warning appears in the
multifunction display: Attention Assist: Attention Assist:
Take a Break!
Take a Break!
In addition to the message shown in the mul-
tifunction display, you will then hear a warn-
ing tone.
X If necessary, take a break.
X Confirm the message by pressing the 0076
button on the steering wheel.
On long journeys, take regular breaks in good
time to allow yourself to rest properly. If you
do not take a break, you will be warned again
after 15 minutes at the earliest. The precon-
dition for this is that ATTENTION ASSIST still
detects typical indicators of fatigue or
increasing lapses in concentration. Night View Assist Plus
General notes In addition to the illumination provided by the
normal headlamps, Night View Assist Plus
uses infrared light to illuminate the road.
Night View Assist Plus camera 0043picks up the
infrared light and displays a monochrome
image in COMAND. The image displayed in
COMAND corresponds to a road lit up by high- beam headlamps. This enables you to see the
road's course and any obstacles in good time. If pedestrian recognition is activated, pedes-
trians recognized by the system are highligh-
ted in the Night View Assist Plus display.
Light from the headlamps of oncoming vehi-
cles does not affect the Night View Assist Plus
display in the multifunction display. This is
also the case if you cannot switch on the high-
beam headlamps due to oncoming traffic.
i Infrared light is not visible to the human
eye and therefore does not glare. Night
View Assist Plus can therefore remain
switched on even if there is oncoming traf- fic.
Important safety notes Night View Assist Plus is only an aid and is not
a substitute for attentive driving. Do not rely
on the Night View Assist Plus display. You are responsible for the distance to the vehicle in
front, for vehicle speed and for braking in
good time. Drive carefully and always adapt
your driving style to suit the prevailing road
and traffic conditions.
The system may be impaired or may not func-
tion if:
R there is poor visibility, e.g. due to snow,
rain, fog or spray
R the windshield is dirty, fogged up or cov-
ered, for instance by a sticker, in the vicinity
of the camera
R on bends, on uphill gradients or downhill
gradients 242

The infrared headlamps only switch on
when the vehicle is being driven at speeds
of approximately 6 mph (10 km/h). This
means that you do not have the full visual
range while the vehicle is stationary and
cannot check whether Night View Assist
Plus is working.

i Animals are not recognized by pedestrian
recognition.
Night View Assist Plus is able to recognize
pedestrians by typical characteristics, e.g. a
silhouette in the shape of a person.
Pedestrian recognition is then switched on
automatically if:
R Night View Assist Plus is activated.
R you are driving faster than approximately
6 mph (10 km/h).
R the surroundings are dark, e.g. when driv-
ing outside built-up areas without street
lighting.
If pedestrian recognition is active, symbol 0085
appears. If pedestrians are detected, they are
highlighted with framing 0087. If the pedestrian
recognition system has brought a pedestrian to your attention, look through the windshield
to evaluate the situation. The actual distance to objects and pedestrians cannot be gaged
accurately by looking at a screen. Driving systems
