Driving and operating185Fault
In case the system requires a service, m is illuminated in the instrument
cluster, a message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre and an
audible signal is given.
If the system does not work as it
should do, vehicle messages are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Vehicle messages 3 117.
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.
Forward collision alert 3 181.
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.
Cruise 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
performance is limited:
● vehicle speed is out of range from
5 km/h to 60 km/h in forward gear
● the distance to an pedestrian ahead is more than 40 m
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● driving during nighttime
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
188Driving and operating
Additionally, the distance to rear and
front obstacles is displayed by
changing distance lines in the Info Display 3 113.
If the vehicle stops for more than
three seconds in a forward gear, if
automatic transmission is in P or if no
further obstacles are detected, no
acoustic warning signals are given.
Deactivation
The system is deactivated
automatically when vehicle speed
exceeds 10 km/h, by applying the
electric parking brake or by pressing
the parking assist button ¼.
Graphic Info Display: The system is
switched off when the LED in the
parking assist button ¼ is illuminated.
Colour Info Display: Deactivate the
parking assist in the vehicle
personalisation 3 118.
Front-rear-lateral parking assist The front-rear-lateral parking parking
assist measures the distance
between the vehicle and obstacles in
front, behind and at the sides of the
vehicle. It informs and warns the
driver by giving acoustic signals and
display indication.
The system operates with ultrasonic parking sensors in the rear and front
bumper and on the flanks of the
vehicle.
Activation
In addition to the rear parking assist
and the front-rear assist, the front-
rear-lateral parking assist is triggered
when the system detects fixed
obstacles located to one or both sides
of the vehicle.Graphic Info Display: The system is
ready to operate when the LED in the parking assist button ¼ is not
illuminated.
Colour Info Display: Activate the
parking assist is in the vehicle
personalisation 3 118.
Indication
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.

Additionally, the distance to rear, front
and lateral obstacles is displayed by
changing distance lines in the Colour
Info Display 3 113.
Deactivation
The system is deactivated
automatically when vehicle speed
exceeds 10 km/h, by applying the electric parking brake or by pressing
the parking assist button ¼.
Graphic Info Display: The system is
switched off when the LED in the
parking assist button ¼ is illuminated.

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, C
illuminates in the instrument cluster.
A message is displayed 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.
Caution
Performance of the system can be reduced 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.
