2019 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC lock

reacting to moving objects that have alreadybeen detected as such at least once over theperiod of observation.
Up to a speed of approximately 44 mph(70 km/h), Adaptive Brake Assist reacts to sta-tionary obstacles.
If adaptive Brake Assist demands particularlyhigh braking force, preventative passenger pro-
tection measures (PRE-SAFE®) are activatedsimultaneously (Ypage 57).
XKeep the brake pedal depressed until theemergency braking situation is over.ABS prevents the wheels from locking.
The brakes will work normally again if:
Ryou release the brake pedal
Rthere is no longer any danger of a collision
Rno obstacle is detected in front of your vehicle
Adaptive Brake Assist is then deactivated.
Important safety notes
iObserve the "Important safety notes" sec-tion for driving safety systems (Ypage 65).
GWARNING
Adaptive Brake Assist cannot always clearly
identify objects and complex traffic situa-
tions.
In such cases, Adaptive Brake Assist can:
Rintervene unnecessarily
Rnot intervene
There is a risk of an accident.
Always pay careful attention to the traffic sit-
uation and be ready to brake. Terminate the
intervention in a non-critical driving situation.
GWARNING
Adaptive Brake Assist does not react:
Rto people or animals
Rto oncoming vehicles
Rto crossing traffic
Rwhen cornering
As a result, the Adaptive Brake Assist may not
intervene in all critical conditions. There is a
risk of an accident.
Always pay careful attention to the traffic sit-
uation and be ready to brake.
Always adapt your speed to suit the prevailing
road and traffic conditions.
Due to the nature of the system, particularlycomplicated but non-critical driving conditionsmay also cause Brake Assist to intervene.
If adaptive Brake Assist is not available due to amalfunction in the radar sensor system, thebrake system remains available with full brakeboosting effect and BAS.
ESP®(Electronic Stability Program)
General notes
iObserve the "Important safety notes" sec-tion (Ypage 65).
ESP®monitors driving stability and traction, i.e.power transmission between the tires and theroad surface.
If ESP®detects that the vehicle is deviating fromthe direction desired by the driver, one or morewheels are braked to stabilize the vehicle. Theengine output is also modified to keep the vehi-cle on the desired course within physical limits.
ESP®assists the driver when pulling away on
wet or slippery roads. ESP®can also stabilizethe vehicle during braking.
4ETS (Electronic Traction System)
iObserve the "Important safety notes" sec-tion (Ypage 65).
ETS traction control is part of ESP®. On vehicles
with 4MATIC, 4ETS is part of ESP®.
Traction control brakes the drive wheels indi-vidually if they spin. This enables you to pullaway and accelerate on slippery surfaces, forexample if the road surface is slippery on oneside. In addition, more drive torque is transfer-red to the wheel or wheels with traction.
Traction control remains active, even if you
deactivate ESP®.

Safety

Crosswind Assist is active at vehicle speedsabove 50 mph(80 km/h)when driving straightahead or cornering gently.
Important safety notes
Crosswind Assist does not work if ESP®isswitched off or deactivated because of a mal-function.
EBD (electronic brake force distribu-
tion)
General information
EBD monitors and controls the brake pressureon the rear wheels to improve driving stabilitywhile braking.
Important safety notes
iObserve the "Important safety notes" sec-tion (Ypage 65).
GWARNING
If EBD is malfunctioning, the rear wheels can
lock, e.g. under full braking. This increases the
risk of skidding and an accident.
You should therefore adapt your driving style
to the different handling characteristics. Have
the brake system checked at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
Observe information regarding indicator andwarning lamps (Ypage 259) as well as displaymessages (Ypage 230).
ADAPTIVE BRAKE
ADAPTIVE BRAKE enhances braking safety andoffers increased braking comfort. In addition tothe braking function, ADAPTIVE BRAKE also hasthe HOLD function (Ypage 170) and hill startassist (Ypage 135).
Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic
function
General information
iObserve the important safety notes in the"Driving safety systems" section (Ypage 65).
Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic functioncan help you to minimize the risk of a collisionwith a vehicle in front or a pedestrian and reducethe effects of such a collision. If the Active BrakeAssist with cross-traffic function detects a riskof collision, you will be warned visually andacoustically and, if necessary, your brake appli-cation will be assisted according to the situa-tion. If you do not react, the system can alsoreact by braking automatically. In the event of adetected risk of collision due to crossing traffic,you will also be visually and acoustically warnedas well as assisted by the brake boosting effectaccording to the situation.
Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic function isonly available in vehicles with the Driving Assis-tance Plus package.
For Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic func-tion to assist you when driving, the radar sensorsystem and the camera system must be opera-tional.
If the radar sensor system or the camera systemis malfunctioning, Active Brake Assist withcross-traffic function is restricted or no longeravailable. The brake system is still available withcomplete brake boosting effect and BAS.
The radar sensor system and camera systemhelp Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic func-tion to detect obstacles that are in the path ofyour vehicle for an extended period of time.
In addition, pedestrians in the path of your vehi-cle can be detected.
Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic functiondetects pedestrians using typical characteris-tics such as body contours and the posture of aperson standing upright.
iObserve the restrictions described in the"Important safety notes" section(Ypage 72).
