Forward collision alert The forward collision alert may help toavoid or reduce the harm caused by
front-end crashes.
The forward collision alert uses the
front camera in the windscreen to
detect a vehicle 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.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.9 Warning
Forward collision alert is just a
warning system and does not
apply the brakes. When
approaching a vehicle ahead too
rapidly, it may not provide you
enough time to avoid a collision.
The driver accepts full
responsibility for the appropriate
following distance based on traffic, weather and visibility conditions.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver must always be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes.

156Driving and operatingWhen the time to a potential collision
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.

Deactivation
Active emergency braking can be
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation menu 3 102. If
deactivated a message is displayed
in the Driver Information Centre.
System limitations
In some cases, the active emergencybraking system may provide an
automatic braking in situations that
seem to be unnecessary, for instance
in parking garages, due to traffic signs
in a curve or due to vehicles in
another lane. This is normal
operation, the vehicle does not need
service. Firmly apply the accelerator
pedal to override the automatic
braking if the situation and the
surroundings permit.
In the following cases, active
emergency braking performance is
limited:
● Driving on winding or hilly roads.
● Detecting all vehicles, especially vehicles with a trailer, tractors,
muddy vehicles, etc.
● Detecting a vehicle when weather limits visibility, such as infog, rain, or snow.
● During nighttime driving.● Weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow.
● The windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign items, e.g.
stickers.
Complete attention is always required
while driving, and you should be ready to take action and apply the
brakes and/or steer the vehicle to
avoid crashes.
