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 preceding vehicle directly
ahead, in your path.
If a vehicle directly ahead is
approached too quickly, a warning
chime and alert in the Driver
Information Centre is provided.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.

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
3 mph and 37 mph.During driving in the dark, 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 3 145.
Detecting front pedestrian ahead
A pedestrian ahead up to a distance
of approx. 40 m is indicated by a
symbol in the instrument cluster.
150Driving and operatingFront 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
3 mph to 37 mph in forward gear
● the distance to an pedestrian ahead is more than 40 m
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● driving in the dark
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow● the sensor in the windscreen isblocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt etc.
● the windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers
Parking assist
General information The system is switched off
automatically when attaching a trailer
or bike carrier to the trailer hitch.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.
The parking assist makes parking easier by measuring the distance
between the vehicle and obstacles. It
informs and warns the driver by giving acoustic signals and display
indication.
Acoustic signals are given on the side
on which the vehicle is closer to an
obstacle. 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.
Rear parking assist
The system operates with ultrasonic
parking sensors in the rear bumper.
Activation
Rear parking assist is activated when reverse gear is engaged.
152Driving and operatingIndication
The system warns the driver with
acoustic signals against potentially
hazardous obstacles in front of the
vehicle and behind the vehicle by using the respective loudspeakers.
Additionally, the distance to rear and
front obstacles is displayed by
changing distance lines in the Info Display 3 91.
Deactivation
The system is deactivated
automatically when vehicle speed
exceeds 6 mph or if the vehicle stops
for more than 3 seconds in a forward gear or if no further obstacles aredetected.
When the system is deactivated
manually, the LED in the button
illuminates.
If the system has been deactivated
manually, it is not reactivated
automatically the next time the
ignition is switched on.
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.
Driving and operating161Zoom view
The camera records the vehicle's
surroundings during the manoeuvre in order to reconstruct a view fromabove the rear of the vehicle in its
near surroundings, allowing the
vehicle to be manoeuvred around
obstacles nearby. This view is
available with auto mode or in the
view selection menu.
180° view
The 180° view facilitates reversing
out of a parking bay, making it
possible to see the approach of
vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for
carrying out a complete manoeuvre.
It is made up of three areas: left 1,
centre 2 and right 3. This view is
available from the view selection menu only.
Deactivation
Panoramic view system is
deactivated when:
● driving faster than 6 mph
● 7 seconds after disengaging reverse gear
● by pressing the icon q in the left
upper corner of the touch screen
● opening the tailgate
General information9 Warning
The panoramic view system does
not replace driver vision. It will not display children, pedestrians,
cyclists, crossing traffic, animals,
or any other objects outside of the camera view area, e. g. below the
bumper, or underneath the
vehicle.
Do not drive or park the vehicle
using only the panoramic view
system.
Always check the surrounding of
the vehicle before driving.
Driving and operating165Activation or DeactivationThe system can be activated or
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation 3 96.
The state of the system stays in
memory when the ignition is switched
off.
Driving time alert
The driver gets notified by a pop-up reminder symbol € in the Driver
Information Centre simultaneously with an acoustic alert if the driver has not taken a break after 2 hours of
driving at a speed above 40 mph. The
alert is repeated hourly until the
vehicle is stopped, no matter how
vehicle speed evolves.
The counting of driving time alert is
reset when the ignition has been
switched off for a few minutes.
Driver drowsiness detection The system monitors the driver's level
of vigilance. A camera in the
windscreen detects variations in
trajectory compared to the lanemarkings. This system is particularly
suited for a speed higher than
40 mph.
If the trajectory of the vehicle
suggests a certain level of
drowsiness or inattention by the
driver, the system triggers the first
level of alert. The driver is notified by
a message and an audible signal is
given.
After three first level alerts, the
system triggers a new alert with a message, accompanied by a more
pronounced audible signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor
road surface or strong winds), the
system may give alerts independent of the driver's level of vigilance.
The driver drowsiness detection is
reinitialised when the ignition has
been switched off for a few minutes or the speed remains below 40 mph for
a few minutes.System limitations
The system may not operate properly
when:
● dazzle caused by headlights of an oncoming vehicles, low sun,
reflections on damp roads
● driving on winding, hilly or narrow
roads
● driving in the dark
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● the camera is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt
● the windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign items, e.g.
stickers
● the sun is shining directly into the
camera lens
● close vehicles ahead
● banked roads
● road edges
● roads with poor lane markings
● multiple lane markings due to roadworks
● sudden lighting changes
