172Driving and operating9Warning
Active emergency braking is not
designed to apply hard
autonomous braking or to
automatically avoid a collision. It is designed to reduce the vehicle
speed before a collision. It may not
react to animals. After a sudden
lane change, the system needs a
certain time to detect the next
preceding vehicle.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver must always be
ready to take action and apply the brakes and steer to avoid
collisions.
The system is designed to work with
all occupants wearing their seat belts.
Intelligent brake assist
If the vehicle is equipped with radar
sensor, intelligent brake assist may
be available. Intelligent brake assist
provides a boost to braking when the
brake pedal is quickly applied. The
braking is based on the speed of
approach and distance to a vehicle
ahead.
Minor brake pedal pulsations or pedal movement during this time is normal
and the brake pedal should continue to be applied as needed. Intelligent
brake assist will automatically
disengage only when the brake pedal is released.9 Warning
Intelligent brake assist may
increase vehicle braking in
situations when it may not be
necessary. You could block the
flow of traffic. If this occurs, take
your foot off the brake pedal and
then apply the brakes as needed.
Forward collision alert 3 168.
Front pedestrian protection 3 173.
Deactivation Active emergency braking can be
deactivated in the personalisation
menu 3 105. If deactivated, m
illuminates in the instrument cluster
and a warning message is displayed
in the Driver Information Centre.
We recommend to deactivate the
system in the vehicle personalisation
in the following cases:
● when towing a trailer or caravan
● when carrying long objects on roof bars or a roof rack
● when the vehicle is being towed with the engine running
● when a spare wheel is fitted that is smaller than the other wheels
● before using an automatic car wash with the engine running
● before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in a workshop
● if the windscreen has been damaged close to the camera
● if the front bumper has been damaged
● if the brake lamps are not working
System limitations In some cases, the active emergencybraking system may provide an
automatic braking in situations that

Driving and operating183The LED comes on after a delay when
passing another vehicle slowly.
Operation conditions
The following conditions must be
fulfilled for proper operation:
● all vehicles are moving in the same direction and in adjacent
lanes
● the speed of your vehicle is between 7 and 87 mph
● passing a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 6 mph
● another vehicle is passing with a speed difference of less than
15 mph
● the traffic flow is normal
● driving on a straight or slightly curved road
● the vehicle is not pulling a trailer
No alert will be given in the following
situations:
● in the presence of non-moving objects, e.g. parked vehicles,
barriers, street lamps, road signs
● with vehicles moving in the opposite direction● driving on a winding road or a sharp corner
● when passing or being passed by
a very long vehicle, e.g. lorry,
coach, which is at the same time
detected at the rear in the blind spot angle and present in the
driver's forward field of vision
● in very heavy traffic, vehicles detected in front and behind are
confused with a lorry or a
stationary object
● when passing too quickly
Deactivation
The system is deactivated in the
vehicle personalisation 3 105. B
extinguishes in the instrument cluster. Additionally, an acoustic signal
sounds.
The state of the system is stored when switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically
deactivated when towing an
electrically connected trailer.
Due to adverse weather conditions
such as heavy rain, false detections
may occur.Fault
In the event of a fault, B flashes for a
few moments in the instrument panel,
accompanied by R and a display
message. Contact a dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Rear view camera
The rear view camera assists the
driver when reversing by displaying a view of the area behind the vehicle.
The view of the camera is displayed
in the Info Display.9 Warning
The rear view camera does not
replace driver vision. Note that
objects that are outside the
camera's field of view and the

General information
Only use towing equipment that has
been approved for your vehicle. If
using non-factory fitted towing
equipment, deactivation of the hands- free tailgate operation may be
required 3 29.
Entrust retrofitting of towing
equipment to a workshop. It may be
necessary to make changes that
affect the cooling system, heat
shields or other equipment.
The bulb outage detection function for
trailer brake light cannot detect a
partial bulb outage. E.g. in case of
four bulbs with a power of 5 W each,
the function only detects lamp outage when only a single 5 W lamp remains
or none remain.
Fitting of towing equipment could
cover the opening of the towing eye.
If this is the case use the coupling ball
bar for towing. Always keep the
coupling ball bar in the vehicle to have it on hand if needed.Driving characteristics and
towing tips
Before attaching a trailer, lubricate the coupling ball. However, do not do
so if a stabiliser, which acts on the coupling ball, is being used to reduce snaking movements.
During trailer towing do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph. A maximum speed
of 60 mph is only appropriate if an oscillation damper is used and the
permissible gross trailer weight does
not exceed the vehicle's curb weight.
For trailers with low driving stability
and caravan trailers, the use of an
oscillation damper is strongly
recommended.
If the trailer starts snaking, drive more
slowly, do not attempt to correct the
steering and brake sharply if
necessary.
When driving downhill, drive in the
same gear as if driving uphill and
drive at a similar speed.
Adjust tyre pressure to the value
specified for full load 3 252.

Driving and operating197Trailer towingTrailer loads
The permissible trailer loads are
vehicle and engine-dependent
maximum values which must not be
exceeded. The actual trailer load is
the difference between the actual
gross weight of the trailer and the
actual coupling socket load with the
trailer coupled.
The permissible trailer loads are
specified in the vehicle documents. In general, they are valid for gradients
up to 12%.
The permissible trailer load applies
up to the specified incline and at sea
level. Since engine power decreases
as altitude increases due to the air
becoming thinner, therefore reducing
climbing ability, the permissible gross train weight also decreases by 10%for every 1000 metres of altitude. The
gross train weight does not have to be reduced when driving on roads with
slight inclines (less than 8%, e.g.
motorways).The permissible gross train weight must not be exceeded. This weight is
specified on the identification plate
3 242.
Vertical coupling load
The vertical coupling load is the load
exerted by the trailer on the coupling
ball. It can be varied by changing the
weight distribution when loading the
trailer.
The maximum permissible vertical
coupling load (70 kg) is specified on
the towing equipment identification
plate and in the vehicle documents.
Always aim for the maximum vertical
coupling load, especially in the case
of heavy trailers. The vertical coupling load should never fall below 25 kg.Rear axle load
When the trailer is coupled and the
towing vehicle fully loaded, the
permissible rear axle load (see
identification plate or vehicle
documents) may be exceeded by
60 kg , the gross vehicle weight rating
may be exceeded by 60 kg. If the
permissible rear axle load is
exceeded, a maximum speed of
60 mph applies.
Towing equipmentCaution
When operating without a trailer,
remove the coupling ball bar.

198Driving and operatingFitting the coupling ball bar
Disengage and fold down the socket.Remove the sealing plug from the
opening for the coupling ball bar and
stow it.
Checking the tensioning of the
coupling ball bar
● Red marking on rotary knob must
point towards green marking on
coupling ball bar.
● The gap between the rotary knob
and the coupling ball bar must be approx. 6 mm.
● Remove the cover from the lock of the rotary knob and verify
whether the rotary knob is
locked. If the rotary knob cannot be turned, it is locked.
Otherwise, the coupling ball bar must be tensioned before being inserted:
● Unlock coupling ball bar by turning key to position c.

in the opening and push firmly
upwards until it audibly engages.
The rotary handle snaps back into its
original position resting against the
coupling ball bar without a gap.9 Warning
Do not touch rotary handle during
insertion.
Lock the coupling ball bar by turning
the key to position e. Remove the key
and close the protective flap.
Eye for break-away stopping cable
Attach breakaway stopping cable to

Check that the coupling ball bar is correctly installed
● Green marking on rotary knob must point towards green
marking on coupling ball bar.
● There must be no gap between the rotary handle and the
coupling ball bar.
● The coupling ball bar must be firmly engaged in the opening.
● The coupling ball bar must be locked and the key removed.9Warning
Towing a trailer is permitted only
when a coupling ball bar is fitted correctly. If the coupling ball bardoes not engage correctly, seekthe assistance of a workshop.
