Audible signals
The interval between the acoustic signals becomes shorter as the clearance is
reduced. At a distance of approx. 30 cm a continuous tone starts to sound -
danger area. From this moment do not continue to move towards the obsta-
cle!
The acoustic signals can be set in Infotainment » Owner's Manual Infotain-
ment .

Read and observe and on page 103 first.
Activation
The activation of the system is initiated when the reverse gear is engaged, or
vehicles with the variant 2, also by pressing the button

» Fig. 130 .
When activating, an alarm sounds and the symbol illuminates in the button.
Deactivation
On vehicles with Version 1, the system can be deactivated by moving out of re-
verse gear.
For vehicles with variant 2, the system is automatically deactivated by pressing
the button or at a speed above 15 km/h (the
 symbol in the button goes
out).
Displaying an error
If a warning signal sounds for 3 seconds after activating the system and there
is no obstacle close to your car, this indicates a system fault. The fault is also
indicated by the symbol  flashing in the button. Seek help from a specialist
garage.
Note
The system can only be activated with the button at a speed of below 15
km/h.Automatic system activation when moving forwardFig. 131

Lane changes of other vehicles / stationary vehicles
Read and observe
on page 110 first.
The following (and similar) situations require special attention and possibly the intervention of the driver (braking, accelerating etc.).
When cornering
When driving into or driving out of long corners, it could be that a vehicle is
travelling in the adjacent lane and is scanned by the radar » Fig. 143 -
 . The
host vehicle is then controlled according to this vehicle.
Narrow vehicles or vehicles travelling side by side
A narrow or offset vehicle driving can only be recognized by the ACC if this is
located in the scanning range of the radar » Fig. 143 -
 .
Other vehicles changing lanes
Vehicles that change onto the lane with a small distance » Fig. 144 -
 may not
be detected by ACC in good time.
Stationary vehicles
The ACC does not detect stationary objects! When a vehicle detected by the
ACC turns or sheers off and there is a stationary vehicle in front of this vehi-
cle, » Fig. 144 -
 the ACC does not respond to the stationary vehicle.
Vehicles with special load or special body parts
Other vehicles with a load or with body parts protruding from the sides, back
or top of the vehicle contour may not be detected by the ACC.

Malfunctions
Read and observe
and on page 114 first.
If, for some unknown reason, the system is not available, an appropriate mes-
sage appears in the display of the instrument cluster.
Sensor covered / dirty
If the sensor is dirty or covered, a message indicating that there is no sensor
view appears. Clean the sensor cover or remove the obstacles » Fig. 125 on
page 100 .
System unavailable
If the system is currently unavailable, a message concerning the unavailability
appears. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and then start it again. If the
system still is not available, seek the assistance of a specialist garage.
Fatigue detection
The fatigue detection system (hereinafter referred to as "system") recom-
mends the driver takes a break from driving when driver fatigue can be detec-
ted due to the driver's steering behaviour.
From the starting of the journey, the system evaluates the steering behaviour
at speeds 65-200 km/h. If, while driving, there have been changes in the steer-
ing behaviours that are evaluated by the system as indicating possible fatigue,
a break recommendation is issued.
Conditions under which a break from driving is detected by the system ▶ The vehicle is stopped and the ignition switched off.
▶ The vehicle is stopped, the seat belt removed and the driver's door opened.
▶ The vehicle is stopped for more than 15 minutes. 
116Driving

If none of these conditions are met or if the driving style is not changed, the
system recommends a driving break again after 15 minutes.
The system can be activated/deactivated in the Infotainment » Owner's Man-
ual Infotainment .
Pause recommendation
The icon appears and the following message for a few seconds in the display
of the instrument cluster  and a message about the detected fatigue. An au-
dible signal is also emitted.WARNING■ The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 100, in section Introduction .■
For the driving ability is always the driver's responsibility. Never drive if
you feel tired.
■
The system may not detect all cases where a break is needed.
■
Therefore, take regular, sufficient breaks during long trips.
■
There will be no system warning during the so-called micro-sleep.
Note
■ In some situations, the system may evaluate the driving incorrectly and thus
mistakenly recommend a break (e.g. sporty driving, adverse weather condi-
tions or poor road conditions).■
The system is designed primarily for use on motorways.

The tyre pressure monitoring function (hereinafter known as "system") moni-
tors the tyre pressure while driving.
If the tyre inflation pressure changes, the warning light 
lights up in the in-
strument cluster and an audible signal sounds » page 32, 
Tyre pressure .
The system can only function properly if the tyres have the prescribed tyre
pressure and this pressure values are stored in the system.
WARNING■ The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 100, in section Introduction .■
The correct tyre pressure values is always the driver's responsibility. The
tyre pressure should be checked regularly » page 146.
■
The system cannot warn in case of very rapid loss of tyre pressure, e.g. in
the event of a sudden puncture.
Storing the tyre pressure values
Read and observe
on page 117 first.
The tyre pressure valuesare always stored in the system, if one of the fol-lowing events is present.▶ Change of tyre pressure values.
▶ Change one or more wheels.
▶ Change in position of a wheel on the vehicle.
▶ The warning light in the instrument cluster.
The storage of the tyre pressure values depends on equipment, either in the
infotainment or by pressing a button.
WARNINGBefore storing the tyre pressures they must be inflated to the specified in-
flation pressure » page 146. If incorrect pressure values are storedthe sys-
tem may not warn even with a tyre pressure that is too low.
CAUTION
The tyre pressure values should be stored every 10 000 km or once a year to
ensure proper system function.117Assist systems
