Active Brake Assist can help you to minimise the
risk of a collision with vehicles, cyclists or pedes-
trians or to reduce the e ects of such a collision.
If Active Brake Assist has detected a risk of colli-
sion, a warning tone sounds and the L dis-
tance warning lamp lights up.
In the Assistance menu, an insu cient distance
1 to the vehicle in front is displayed in red. If you
further reduce the distance, the vehicle in front is
also highlighted in red. When the system detects a
risk of collision, red radar waves 2 appear in
front of the vehicle.

If you do not react to the warning, autonomous
braking can be initiated in critical situations.
In particularly critical situations, Active Brake
Assist can also initiate autonomous braking
directly. In this case, the warning lamp and warn-
ing tone occur simultaneously with the braking
application.
If you apply the brake yourself in a critical situa-
tion or apply the brake during autonomous brak-
ing, situation-dependent braking assistance
occurs. The brake pressure increases up to maxi-
mum full-stop braking if necessary.
If autonomous braking or situation-dependent
braking assistance has occurred, pop up 1
