Depending on equipment
version: emergency brake
function, Active PDC
Principle
The emergency braking function of PDC initiates
an emergency braking in case of acute risk of
collision.
General information
Due to system limits, a collision cannot be pre‐
vented under all circumstances.
The function is available below walking speed
when driving in reverse or rolling backward.
A press of the accelerator pedal interrupts the
brake intervention.
After emergency braking to a stop, further creep‐
ing toward an obstacle is possible. Proceed with
caution. To move forward, lightly press the accel‐
erator pedal and release as needed.
If the accelerator pedal is depressed longer, the
vehicle drives off. Manual braking is possible at
any time.
The system uses the ultrasonic sensors of the
Park Distance Control PDC and the Parking As‐
sistant.
Safety information

driver’s personal judgment in assessing the

tem, it cannot independently react to all traffic
situations. There is a risk of accident. Adjust
driving style to traffic conditions. Watch traffic
and vehicle surroundings closely and actively
intervene where appropriate.
Additionally, the safety information for the PDC
