Driving and operating159Forward looking brake assist
In addition to emergency automatic
braking, the forward looking brake
assist function makes the brake assist more sensitive. Therefore, pressing
the brake pedal less strongly results
in immediate hard braking. This
function helps the driver brake
quicker and harder before the
imminent collision.9 Warning
Active emergency braking is not
designed to apply hard
autonomous braking or to
automatically avoid a collision. It is designed to reduce the vehicle
speed before a collision. It may not
react to animals. After a sudden
lane change, the system needs a
certain time to detect the next
preceding vehicle.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver must always be
ready to take action and apply the brakes and steer to avoid
collisions.
The system is designed to work with
all occupants wearing their seat belts.
Forward collision alert 3 156.
Front pedestrian protection 3 160.
Deactivation Active emergency braking can be
deactivated in the personalisation
menu 3 102. If deactivated, m
illuminates in the instrument cluster and a warning message is displayed
in the Driver Information Centre.
We recommend to deactivate the
system in the vehicle personalisation
in the following cases:
● when towing a trailer or caravan
● when carrying long objects on roof bars or a roof rack
● when the vehicle is being towed with the engine running
● when a spare wheel is fitted that is smaller than the other wheels
● before using an automatic carwash with the engine running
● before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in a workshop
● if the windscreen has been damaged close to the camera
● if the front bumper has been damaged
● if the brake lamps are not working
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.

160Driving and operatingIn 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 in
fog, rain, or snow.
● Driving during nighttime.
● 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 beready to take action and apply the
brakes and / or steer the vehicle to
avoid crashes.
Fault In case the system requires a service,
a message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.If the system does not work as it
should do, vehicle messages are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Vehicle messages 3 101.
Front pedestrian protection Front pedestrian protection may help
to avoid or reduce the harm caused
by front-end crashes with pedestrians
when driving forward.
The system uses the front camera in
the windscreen to detect a pedestrian directly ahead in your path.
Front pedestrian protection can
detect and alert to pedestrians in a
forward gear at speeds between
5 km/h and 60 km/h.
During nighttime driving, system
performance is limited.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.
Front pedestrian protection includes:
● detecting front pedestrian ahead● front pedestrian alert
Front pedestrian protection is
activated together with forward
collision alert.

Detecting front pedestrian ahead
A pedestrian ahead up to a distance
of approx. 40 m is indicated by a
symbol in the instrument cluster.
Front pedestrian alert
When approaching a detected
pedestrian too quickly, a warning
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre. A warning chime
is provided.

Driving and operating161Cruise control or Adaptive cruise
control may be disengaged when the
front pedestrian alert occurs.
System limitations In the following cases, front
pedestrian protection may not detect
a pedestrian ahead or sensor

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
¼ is not illuminated.
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.

162Driving and operatingDepending on which side of the
vehicle is closer to an obstacle, you will hear acoustic warning signals inthe 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.
Additionally, the distance to rear

System limitations
In the event of a fault or if the system does not work temporarily, e.g.
because of high external noise level
or other interference factors, Service
in the cluster instrument illuminates. A message is indicated in the Driver
Information Centre.9 Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external noise sources may cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles.
Special attention must be paid to
low obstacles which can damage
the lower part of the bumper.

164Driving and operatingCaution
Performance of the system can bereduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
system can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
Special conditions apply if there
are taller vehicles in the vicinity
(e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans,
vans). Object identification and correct distance indication in the
upper part of these vehicles
cannot be guaranteed.
Objects with a very small reflection
cross-section, e.g. objects of
narrow size or soft materials, may
not be detected by the system.
Parking assist systems do not
detect objects outside the
detection range.
Note
Make sure that the front number
plate is properly mounted (not bent
and no gaps to the bumper on the left or right side) and the sensors are
firmly in place.
Advanced parking assist9 Warning
The driver bears full responsibility
for accepting the parking slot
suggested by the system and the
parking manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area in all directions when using
the advanced parking assist.
The advanced parking assist
measures a suitable parking slot
while passing, calculates the
trajectory and automatically steers
the vehicle while parking.
Advanced parking assist provides
assistance for the following
manoeuvres:
● Entry into a parallel parking slot.
● Entry into a perpendicular parking slot.
● Exit from a parallel parking slot.
The driver must control acceleration,
braking and gear shifting, while
steering is done automatically. The
driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.
It may be necessary to move forwards and backwards more than once.
Instructions are given in the Info
