make sure that there are no persons, animals or
objects in the area in which you are maneuver-
ing.
You are always responsible for safety, and must
always pay attention to your surroundings when
parking and maneuvering. This applies to the
areas behind, in front of and beside the vehicle.
You could otherwise endanger yourself and oth-
ers.
The 360° camera will not function or will func-
tion in a limited manner: R
if the doors are open R
if the exterior mirrors are folded in R
if the trunk lid is open R
in heavy rain, snow or fog R
at night or in very dark places R
if the cameras are exposed to very bright light R
if the area is lit by fluorescent bulbs or LED
lighting (the display may flicker) R
if the camera lenses fog up, e.g. when driving
into a heated garage in winter, causing a rapid
change in temperature R
if the camera lenses are dirty or covered.
Observe the notes on cleaning
( Y
page 323) R
if the vehicle components in which the cam-
eras are installed are damaged. In this event,
have the camera position and setting checked
at a qualified specialist workshop
Do not use the 360° camera in this case. You
can otherwise injure others or cause damage to
objects or the vehicle.
The guide lines on the multimedia system show
the distances to your vehicle. The distances only
apply to road level.
The cameras in the front and in the rear area are
each protected by a flap. These flaps are opened
when the 360° camera is activated. Observe the
notes on cleaning ( Y
page 323). For technical
reasons, the flaps may remain open briefly after
the 360° camera has been deactivated.
The field of vision and other functions of the
camera system may be restricted due to addi-
tional attachments (e.g. license plate holder,
rear bicycle carrier).
On vehicl es w ith height-adjustable chassis,
dependi
ng on technical conditions, leaving the
standard height can result in: R
inaccuracies in the guide lines R
inaccuracies in the display of generated
images (top view) Activation conditions The image from the 360° camera appears if: R
the multimedia system is switched on R
the 360° Camera function is switched on
If the 360° camera is activated at speeds above
approximately 19 mph (30 km/h), a warning
message appears.
The warning message disappears if: R
the vehicle's speed falls below approximately
19 mph (30 km/h). The 360° camera is then
activated. R
the message is confirmed with the 8 but-
ton.

and any obstacles in good time. When pedes-
trian recognition is active, pedestrians recog-
nized by the system are visually highlighted in
color in the Night View Assist Plus display with
small frame corners.
In addition, an infrared camera is integrated into
radiator trim C . The camera helps detect
pedestrians and animals. Observe the notes on
cleaning the infrared camera ( Y
page 324).
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 traffic.
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 driv-
ing style to suit the prevailing road and traffic
conditions.
The system may be impaired or may not function
if: R
there is poor visibility, e.g. due to snow, rain,
fog or spray R
the windshield is dirty, fogged up or covered,
for instance by a sticker, in the vicinity of the
camera R
the infrared camera in the radiator trim is
dirty, fogged up or obscured R
on bends, hilltops or downhill gradients R
at high outside temperatures
Night View Assist Plus cannot display objects
directly in front of or beside the vehicle.
It is possible that, in addition to people and ani-
mals, other objects are also marked or highligh-
ted .
Pedestrian and animal recognition
General notes
Pedestrian or animal recognition may be
impaired or inoperative if: R
pedestrians or animals are partially or entirely
obscured by other objects, e.g. parked vehi-
cles R
the silhouette of the pedestrian or of the ani-
mal in the Night View Assist Plus display is incomplete or interrupted, e.g. by powerful
light reflections R
pedestrians or animals do not contrast with
the surroundings R
the camera system no longer recognizes
pedestrians as persons due to special cloth-
ing or other objects R
pedestrians are not in an upright position, e.g.
sitting, squatting or lying R
animals are not recognized by the system,
e.g. because of their size or shape
Pedestrian and animal recognition is deactiva-
ted at temperatures above 90 ‡ (32 †). The
spotlight function and automatic delayed
switch-off are then no longer active.

MERCEDES-BENZ S CLASS 2017 Owners Manual Active Lane Keeping Assist cannot continuously
keep your vehicle in its lane.
G WARNING
Active Lane Keeping Assist cannot always
clearly detect lane markings.
In such cases, Active Lane Keeping Assist

Active Lane Keeping Assist cannot continuously
keep your vehicle in its lane.
G WARNING
Active Lane Keeping Assist cannot always
clearly detect lane markings.
In such cases, Active Lane Keeping Assist
can: R
give an unnecessary warning and then
make a course-correcting brake application
to the vehicle R
not give a warning or intervene
There is a risk of an accident.
Always pay particular attention to the traffic
situation and keep within the lane, especially
if Active Lane Keeping Assist alerts you. Ter-
minate the intervention in a non-critical driv-
ing situation.
The system may be impaired or may not function
if: R
there is poor visibility, e.g. due to insufficient
illumination of the road, or due to snow, rain,
fog or spray R
there is glare, e.g. from oncoming traffic, the
sun or reflection from other vehicles (e.g. if
the road surface is wet) R
the windshield is dirty, fogged up, damaged or
covered, for instance by a sticker, in the vicin-
ity of the camera R
the radar sensors in the front or rear bumpers
or the radiator trim are dirty, e.g. obscured by
snow R
there are no, several or unclear lane markings
for a lane, e.g. in areas with road construction
work R
the lane markings are worn away, dark or cov-
ered up, e.g. by dirt or snow R
the distance to the veh icle in front is too small
and the lane markings thus cannot be detec-
ted R
the lane markings change quickly, e.g. lanes
branch off, cross one another or merge R
the road is narrow and winding R
there are strong shadows cast on the road
If no vehicle is detected in the adjacent lane and
broken lane markings are detected, no lane-cor-
recting brake application is made. Warning vibration in the steering wheel A warning may be given if a front wheel passes
over a lane marking. It will warn you by means of
intermittent vibration in the steering wheel for
up to 1.5 second s.
In orde r that you are warned only when neces-
sary and in good time if you cross the lane mark-
ing, the system recognizes certain conditions
and warns you accordingly.
The warning vibration occurs earlier if: R
you approach the outer lane marking on a
bend. R
the road has very wide lanes, e.g. a highway. R
the system recognizes solid lane markings.
The warning vibration occurs later if: R
the road has narrow lanes. R
you cut the corner on a bend.
Lane-correcting brake application If you leave your lane, under certain circumstan-
ces the vehicle will brake briefly on one side.
This is meant to assist you in bringing the vehicle
back to the original lane.
G WARNING
A lane-correcting brake application cannot
always bring the vehicle back into the original
lane. There is a risk of an accident.
Always steer, brake or accelerate yourself,
especially if Active Lane Keeping Assist warns
you or makes a lane-correcting brake appli-
cation.
G WARNING
Active Lane Keeping Assist does not detect
traffic conditions or road users. In very rare
cases, the system may make an inappropriate
brake application, e.g. after intentionally driv-
ing over a solid lane marking. There is a risk of
an accident.
An inappropriate brake application may be
interrupted at any time if you steer slightly in
the opposite direction. Always make sure that
there is sufficient distance on the side for
other traffic or obstacles.Driving systems 207
