Protectingthe environment
ENVIRONMENTALNOTEEnvironmentaldamageduetooperating conditions andpersonal drivingstyle
The pollutant emission ofyourvehicle isdirectlyrelatedtothewayyou operateyourvehicle.
Helptoprotectthe environmentbyoperatingyourvehicle in an environmentallyresponsi‐ble manner. Please observethefollowingrec‐ommendations on operating conditions andpersonal drivingstyle.
Operating conditions:
Make surethatthe tire pressure is cor‐rect.
Do not carryany unnecessaryweight(e.g.roof luggageracks onceyou nolonger needthem).
Adheretothe service intervals.Aregularly servicedvehicle will contrib‐utetoenvironmental protection.
Always havemaintenanceworkcarriedout at aqualified specialistworkshop.
Personal drivingstyle:
Do not depressthe accelerator pedalwhenstartingthe engine.
Do notwarmupthe engine whilethevehicle isstationary.
Drive carefully and maintain a suitabledistance fromthevehicle in front.
Avoid frequent, sudden accelerationand braking.
Changegear in good time and use eachgear onlyupto

Function of ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)
ABSregulatesthe brake pressure in critical driv‐ing situations:
RDuring braking, e.g. at full brake applicationor insufficient tire traction,the wheels areprevented from locking.
RVehiclesteerability while braking is ensured.
If ABS intervenes when braking,you willfeel apulsing inthe brake pedal. The pulsating brake
pedal can be an indication of hazardousroadconditions and can serveas aremindertotakeextra care while driving.
System limitationsRABS is active from speeds of approx. 5mph(8 km/h).
RABS may be impaired or may not function if amalfunction has occurred andtheyel‐low%ABSwarning lamp lights up contin‐uously inthe instrument cluster aftertheengine isstarted.
Function ofBAS (Brake Assist System)
\nWARNINGRisk of an accident causedbya malfunction inBAS (Brake AssistSys‐tem)
IfBAS is malfunctioning,the braking distancein an emergency braking situation isincreased.
Depressthe brake pedal with fullforcein emergency braking situations. ABSpreventsthe wheels from locking.

\nWARNINGRisk of an accident despiteEvasiveSteering Assist
EvasiveSteering Assist cannotalways clearlyidentify objects and complex traffic situa‐tions.
In addition,thesteering support of EvasiveSteering Assist isgenerallynot sufficienttoavoid a collision.
In such cases EvasiveSteering Assist can:
Rgive an unnecessarywarning or provideassistance
Rnot giveawarning or not provide assis‐tance
Always pay careful attentiontothe traf‐fic situation; do notrely on EvasiveSteering Assist alone.
Bereadytobrake andtakeevasiveaction if necessary.
Preventthe assistancebyactivelysteer‐ing in non-critical driving situations.
Drive at an appropriate speed if pedes‐trians are closetothe path ofyourvehi‐cle.
Also observethe system limitations of EvasiveSteering Assist.
System limitations
The system may be impaired or may not functioninthefollowing situations:
RIn snow,rain,fog, heavy spray, ifthere isglare, in direct sunlight or ingreatlyvaryingambient light.
RIfthe sensors are dirty,fogged up, damagedor covered.
RIfthe sensors malfunction dueto otherradarsource interference,forexamplestrongradarreflections in parkinggarages.
RIf a loss of tire pressure or a defective tirehas been detected and displayed.
The system may notreact correctly:
RIn complextraffic situations whereobjectscannotalways be clearly identified.
RTopedestrians orvehicles iftheymovequickly intothe sensor detectionrange.
RTopedestrians who are hiddenby otherobjects.
RIfthe typical outline of a pedestrian cannotbe distinguished fromthe background.
RIf a pedestrian is notrecognized as such, e.g.duetospecial clothing orother objects.
ROn bends with a tightradius.

174Driving and parking

Ifthe driver does notsteerthevehicleover along period, or has nottaken hold ofthesteeringwheel, arepeatedwarningtone sounds in addi‐tiontothe visualwarning message (dependingonthe country).
Thewarning message does not appear or disap‐pears if one ofthefollowing conditions are met:
RThe driversteersthevehicle.
RThe driver presses asteering wheel button oroperatesTouch Control.
ActiveSteering Assist is only an aid. The driver isresponsibleforthe distancetothevehicle infront,forvehicle speed,for braking in good timeandforstaying in lane. Beforechanging lanes,the driver must make surethatthe neighboringlane is free (glanceoverthe shoulder).
System limitationsActiveSteering Assist has a limitedsteeringtor‐quefor lateral guidance. In some cases,thesteering intervention is not sufficienttokeepthevehicle inthe lane ortodrive pastexits.
The system may be impaired or may not functioninthefollowing instances:
RIn snow,rain,fog, heavy spray, ifthere isglare, direct sunlight,greatlyvarying ambientlight,reflections orstrong shadowsontheroadway.
RInsufficientroad illumination.
RThe windshield inthe area ofthe camera isdirty,fogged up, damaged or covered.
RAbsence of lane markings, or several unclearlane markings, or ifthe markingschangerap‐idly.
RThe distancetothevehicle in front istoosmall andthe lane markingsthus cannot bedetected.
RTheroad is narrow and winding.
RObstacles onthe lane or projecting out intothe lane.
The system does not provide assistance inthefollowing conditions:
ROn tight bends, intersections,tollstations,traffic circles and when turning.
RWhen activelychanging lane without switch‐ing onthe turn signal.
RWhenthe tire pressure istoo low.
\nWARNINGRisk of accident ifActiveSteering Assist unexpectedlystops func‐tioning
Ifthe system limitations ofActiveSteeringAssist arereachedthere is no guaranteethatthe system willremain active or willkeepthevehicle in lane.
Alwayskeepyour hands onthesteeringwheel and observethe traffic carefully.
Alwayssteerthevehicle paying atten‐tiontotraffic conditions.
\nWARNINGRisk of accident ifActiveSteering Assist unexpectedly intervenes
A malfunction inthe detection of lane mark‐ings and objects can occur.
This could cause unexpectedsteering inter‐vention.
