with a vehicle in front gets too small
and a collision is imminent, a warning is displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Simultaneously a warning chime sounds. Depress the brake pedal and
steer the vehicle, if it is required by the
situation.
Operation conditions
The following condition must be
fullfilled for proper operation:
The speed must be between 3 mph
and 87 mph.
Activation
To use forward colision alert, active
safety braking has to be activated in
the vehicle personalisation 3 102.
Selecting the alert sensitivity
The alert sensitivity has to be set to
close, normal or distant in the vehicle personalisation menu 3 102.Deactivation
The system can only be deactivated
by deactivating the active emergency braking in the vehicle personalisation
3 102.
System limitations Forward collision alert is designed to
warn on vehicles only, but may react
also to other objects.
In the following cases, forward
collision alert may not detect a vehicle ahead or sensor performance is
limited:
● Driving on winding or hilly roads.● During nighttime driving.
● Weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● The windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign items, e.g.
stickers.
Active emergency braking Active emergency braking can help toreduce the damage and injury from
crashes with vehicles, pedestrians and obstacles directly ahead, when acollision can no longer be avoided
either by manual braking or by
steering. Before the active
emergency braking applies, the driver
is warned by the forward collision
alert 3 155 or the front pedestrian
protection alert 3 158.
The feature uses various inputs (e.g. camera sensor, brake pressure,
vehicle speed) to calculate the
probability of a frontal collision.9 Warning
This system is not intended to
replace the driver responsibility for driving the vehicle and looking
ahead. Its function is limited to
supplemental use only to reduce
the vehicle speed before a
collision.
The system may not react to
animals. After a sudden lane
change, the system needs a
certain time to detect the next
preceding vehicle.
The driver must always be ready
to take action and apply the brakes and steer to avoid collisions.
Driving and operating159Front pedestrian protection uses thefront camera in the windscreen to
detect a pedestrian directly ahead, in your path.
The system triggers different level of
alerts depending on the risk of
collision detected. The alerts are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Level 1: A visual alert is displayed.
Level 2: A visual alert is displayed and
an audible alert sounds.9 Danger
Front pedestrian braking does not
provide an alert or automatically
brake the vehicle, unless it detects
a pedestrian.
The system may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
when the pedestrian is not directly ahead, not fully visible, not
standing upright, or when part of a
group.
Caution
The colour lighting of this control
indicator does not correspond to
local traffic laws on following
distance. The driver bears full
responsibility for maintaining safe
following distance according to
applicable traffic rules, weather
and road conditions etc. at all
times.
When the time to a potential collision
with a pedestrian in front gets too small and a collision is imminent, a
warning is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
Simultaneously a warning chime
sounds. Depress the brake pedal and
steer the vehicle, if it is required by the
situation.
Operation conditions
The following condition must be
fullfilled for proper operation:
The speed must be between 3 mph
and 37 mph.
Activation
To use the system, active safety
braking has to be activated in the
vehicle personalisation 3 102.
Selecting the alert sensitivity
The alert sensitivity has to be set to
close, normal or distant in the vehicle
personalisation menu 3 102.
Deactivation The system can only be deactivated
by deactivating the active emergency
braking in the vehicle personalisation, 3 102.
System limitations
Front pedestrian protection is
designed to warn on pedestrians
only, but may react also to other
objects.
In the following cases, the system
may not detect a pedestrian ahead or sensor performance is limited:
● Driving on winding or hilly roads.

Parking assist
General information When attaching a trailer or bike
carrier to the trailer hitch, the parking
assist is deactivated.9 Warning
The driver bears full responsibility
for the parking manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area when driving backwards or
forwards while using parking
assist system.
Rear parking assist
The rear parking assist makes
parking easier by measuring the
distance between the vehicle and
rear obstacles. It informs and warns
the driver by giving acoustic signals
and display indication.
The system operates with ultrasonic
parking sensors in the rear bumper.
Activation
Rear parking assist is activated when reverse gear is engaged and ignition
is switched on.
The system is ready to operate when
the LED in the parking assist button
r OFF does not illuminate.
Indication
The system warns the driver with acoustic signals against potentially
hazardous obstacles behind the
vehicle in a distance range up to
50 cm while reverse gear is engaged.
Depending on which side of the
vehicle is closer to an obstacle, you
will hear acoustic warning signals in
the vehicle on the respective side.
The interval between the sounds
becomes shorter as the vehicle gets closer to that obstacle. When the
distance is less than approx. 30 cm,
the sound is continuous.
Driving and operating161Additionally, the distance to rear
obstacles is displayed by changing
distance lines in the Info Display
3 97 . When the obstacle is very close,
9 for Danger is displayed in the
screen.
Deactivation
The system is switched off when
reverse gear is disengaged. Press
r OFF to deactivate the system
manually. The LED in the button
illuminates when the system is
deactivated.
Front-rear parking assist
The front-rear parking assist
measures the distance between the
vehicle and obstacles in front and
behind the vehicle. It informs and
warns the driver by giving acoustic
signals and display indication.
It uses two different acoustic warning
signals for the front and rear
monitoring areas, each with a
different tone frequency.
The system operates with ultrasonic
parking sensors in the rear and front
bumper.
Activation
In addition to the rear parking assist,
the front parking assist is triggered
when an obstacle is detected in front
and the speed of the vehicle is still
below 6 mph.
The system is ready to operate when
the LED in the parking assist button
r does not illuminate.
When the system is deactivated, the
LED in the button illuminates.
Indication
The system warns the driver with
acoustic signals against potentially
hazardous obstacles in front of the
vehicle and behind the vehicle.
