Automatic change from DAB to FM
If DAB reception is poor, the device tries to find an FM station.
The station name is followed by ( ) while the station is being received on the
FM band. When the corresponding DAB station is can be received again, the
system automatically switches from FM to DAB.
If a DAB station is also not available in the FM band due to poor reception, In-
fotainment will be switched to mute.
L-band
For the DAB radio reception in different countries, different broadcasting rang-
es are used. In some countries the DAB radio reception is only possible in the
so called L-band.
If no L-band DAB radio reception is possible in the country then we recom-
mend turning off the L-band. The channel scan is therefore faster.

Radiator shutters
The radiator shutters located in front of the radiator (hereinafter: shutter) help
to reduce CO 2 emissions as well as harmful emissions and to save fuel.
If the system detects that it is possible to reduce the amount of air flowing to
the radiator, it closes the blinds. As a result, the air resistance of the vehicle is
reduced.
If, due to a function impairment of the shutters, a driving speed of 150 km/h is
reached, an appropriate message is shown in the display of the instrument
cluster.
After the display of the above message, the top speed of the vehicle is auto-
matically limited to around 170 km/h.
If this message appears in the winter, the cause may be ice or snow caught up
in the blinds. After the ice or snow has thawed, the blinds are functional again.
If the impairment not due to ice or snow, then assistance from a specialist
should be sought.

ABCProactive occupant protection (Crew Protect Assist)
 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Function
242
ProActive passenger protection (following known as system) increases pas-
senger protection in the front seats in situations that could lead to vehicle im-
pact or overturning.
WARNINGPlease take note of the general points relating to the use of assistance
systems » page 212, in section Introduction .
Note
■
The system component service life is monitored electronically. Further infor-
mation » page 37 ,  Safety systems .■
If the front passenger front airbag is deactivated, the belt tensioning func-
tion for the front passenger seat is switched off.
Function
Read and observe
on page 242 first.
In critical driving situations (e.g. during emergency braking or a sudden changein direction), the following steps can be taken separately or combined in order
to reduce the risk of serious injury.
▶ The front passenger's and driver's seatbelts, if worn, are automatically ten-
sioned closely over the body.
▶ Opened door windows in the front doors are closed automatically up to a gap
of about 5 cm from the edge.
▶ The sliding/tilting roof is closed.
Once the critical driving situation has passed, the tension on the seatbelts will
be released again.
The system operates at two levels of protection.
The first level of protection
The system already intervenes in situations that may occur during dynamic
driving. As a result, this primarily helps to keep the driver and the passenger in
the correct seated position. 
