Warning
with
braking
function
Display
A warning symbol appears in the instrument
cluster and in the Head-up Display if a collision with a detected vehicle is imminent.SymbolMeasureSymbol lights up red: prewarning.
Brake and increase distance.Symbol flashes red and an acoustic signal sounds: acute warning.
Brake and make an evasive maneuj ver, if necessary.
Prewarning
This warning is issued, e.g., when there is the impending danger of a collision or the distanceto the vehicle ahead is too small.
The driver must intervene actively when there
is a prewarning.
Acute
warning
with
braking
function
Acute warning is displayed in case of the immij nent danger of a collision when the vehicle apj
proaches another object at a high differential
speed.
The driver must intervene actively when there
is an acute warning. If necessary, the driver is
assisted by a minor automatic braking interj
vention in a possible risk of collision.
Acute warnings can also be triggered without
previous forewarning.
Braking
intervention
The warning prompts the driver himself/herself
to react. During a warning, the maximum brakj
ing force is used. Prerequisite for the brake
booster is sufficiently quick and hard stepping on the brake pedal. The system can assist with
some braking intervention if there is a risk of a collision. At low speeds vehicles may thus
come to a complete stop.

The braking intervention is executed only if vej
hicle stability has not been restricted, for inj
stance by deactivating the DSC Dynamic Staj bility Control.
The braking intervention can be interrupted by stepping on the accelerator pedal or by acj
tively moving the steering wheel.
Object detection can be restricted. Follow the
limitations of the detection range and funcj tional restrictions.
System
limits
Safety
information WARNING
The system can react not at all, too late,
incorrectly, or without justification due to the system limits. There is a risk of accidents or
risk of damage to property. Follow the informaj
tion regarding the system limits and actively intervene, if needed.'

With the vehicle approaching another vehicle
intentionally, the approach control warning and
braking are delayed in order to avoid false sysj
tem reactions.
General
information
The system issues a two-phase warning of a possible danger of collision with vehicles at
speeds above approx. 3 mph/5 km/h. Time of
warnings may vary with the current driving sitj uation.
Detection
range
Objects that the system can detect are taken into account.
Safety
information WARNING
The system does not relieve from perj
sonal responsibility to assess visibility and trafj
fic situation. There is a risk of an accident. Adj just driving style to traffic conditions. Watchtraffic closely and actively intervene where apj
propriate.'

Braking
intervention
The detection of objects can be influenced by
technical system limitations, for instance pej
destrians or stationary objects. Observe the
limitations of the detection range and funcj tional restrictions.
The warning prompts the driver himself/herself
to react. During a warning, the maximum brakj
ing force is used. Prerequisite for the brake
booster is sufficiently quick and hard stepping
on the brake pedal. The system can assist with
automatic braking intervention if there is a risk of a collision. The braking intervention can
bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
The braking intervention is executed only if vej
hicle stability has not been restricted, for inj
stance by deactivating the DSC Dynamic Staj
bility Control.
At speeds above approx. 130 mph/210 km/h,
the braking intervention occurs as a brief brakj
ing pressure. No automatic delay occurs.
The braking intervention can be interrupted by
stepping on the accelerator pedal or by acj
tively moving the steering wheel.Seite 140ControlsSafety140

Lane
departure
warningConcept
The lane departure warning alerts when the vehicle on roads with lane markings is about to
leave the lane.
General
information Depending on the country version, the system
issues a warning at speeds between
35 mph/55 km/h and 45 mph/70 km/h.
When switching on the system below this
speed, a message is displayed in the instruj ment cluster.
Warnings are issued by means of a steering
wheel vibration. The time of the warning may
vary depending on the current driving situaj tion.
The system does not provide a warning if the turn signal is set before leaving the lane.
Safety
information WARNING
The system does not relieve from perj
sonal responsibility to assess road and traffic
safety. There is a risk of an accident. Adjust
driving style to traffic conditions. Watch traffic
closely and actively intervene where approprij
ate. Do not jerk the steering wheel in response
to a warning.'
