The distance warning function issues a warning
at speeds:
R
from approximately 30 km/h, if over several
seconds the distance maintained to the vehi‐
cle travelling in front is insufficient for the
driven speed.
The
·
distance warning lamp then lights
up in the instrument cluster.
R
from approximately 7 km/h, if your vehicle is
critically close to a vehicle or pedestrian.
An intermittent warning tone sounds and the
·
distance warning lamp lights up in the
instrument cluster.
Brake immediately or take evasive action, provi‐
ded it is safe to do so and the traffic situation
allows this.
The distance warning function can aid you in the following situations with an intermittent warn‐
ing tone and a warning lamp:
Vehicles travel‐
ling in front
Stationary vehi‐
cles
Crossing vehi‐
cles
Crossing pedes‐
trians/cyclists
Stationary
pedestrians
Up to approx.
250 km/h
Up to approx.
200 km/h
No reaction
Up to approx.
60 km/h
No reaction
Autonomous braking function
The autonomous braking function may intervene at speeds starting from approximately 7 km/h
in the following situations:
Vehicles travel‐
ling in front
Stationary vehi‐
cles
Crossing vehi‐
cles
Crossing pedes‐
trians/cyclists
Stationary
pedestrians
Up to approx.
250 km/h
Up to approx.
200 km/h
No reaction
Up to approx.
60 km/h
No reaction
Situation-dependent braking assistance
Situation-dependent braking assistance may intervene at speeds starting from approximately
7 km/h in the following situations:
Vehicles travel‐
ling in front
Stationary vehi‐
cles
Crossing vehi‐
cles
Crossing pedes‐
trians/cyclists
Stationary
pedestrians
Up to approx.
250 km/h
Up to approx.
80 km/h
No reaction
Up to approx.
60 km/h
No reaction
Cancelling a brake application of Active Brake
Assist
You can cancel a brake application of Active
Brake Assist at any time by:
R
Fully depressing the accelerator pedal or with
kickdown.
R
Fully releasing the brake pedal (only during
situation-dependent braking assistance).
Active Brake Assist may cancel the brake applica‐
tion when one of the following conditions is fulfil‐
led:
R
You manoeuvre to avoid the obstacle.
R
There is no longer a risk of collision.
R
An obstacle is no longer detected in front of
your vehicle.
System limitations
The system may be impaired or may not function
in the following situations:
R
In snow, rain, fog or heavy spray.
R
The sensors are dirty, misted up, damaged or
covered.
R
The sensors are affected by interference from
other radar sources, e.g. strong radar reflec‐
tions in multi-storey car parks.
