Warning with braking function
Display
If a collision with a pedestrian or a cyclist is immi‐
nent, a warning symbol appears on the instru‐
ment cluster and in the Head-up Display.
The red symbol is displayed and a signal
sounds.
Alternatively, depending on the vehicle
equipment, a red warning triangle lights
up in the instrument cluster.
Intervene immediately by braking or make an
evasive maneuver.
Braking intervention
The warning prompts the driver to intervene. If a
warning is active, the maximum braking force is
used when the brake is applied. This requires the
brake pedal to be depressed sufficiently quickly
and forcefully.
If there is a risk of collision, the system may also
assist with braking.
When the vehicle is traveling at a low speed, the
vehicle may come to a complete stop.
The braking intervention occurs only if vehicle
stability has not been restricted, for instance by
deactivating the DSC Dynamic Stability Control.
The driver may interrupt the braking intervention
function by stepping on the accelerator pedal or
by actively moving the steering wheel.
The system’s ability to detect objects may be
limited in some circumstances. Refer to the in‐
formation in this Owner’s Manual regarding the
limitations of the system and actively intervene
as warranted.
System limits
Safety information
Warning
The system is designed to operate in certain
conditions and circumstances. Due to condi‐
tions or other factors, the system may not re‐
spond. There may be a risk of accident or risk
of damage to property. Actively intervene as
warranted. Refer to the information in this Own‐
er’s Manual regarding the scope of the sys‐
tem’s operation and limitations.
Upper speed limit
The system responds to pedestrians and cyclists
when the speed of the vehicle is below approx.
50 mph/80 km/h.
Detection range
The system's detection potential is limited.
Thus, a warning might not be issued or be is‐
sued late.
The following situations may not be detected, for
instance:
▷ Partially covered pedestrians.
▷ Pedestrians that are not detected as such be‐
cause of the viewing angle or contour.
▷ Pedestrians outside of the detection range.
▷ Pedestrians having a body size less than
32 in/80 cm.
