If the speed difference is 4-15 km/h in relation
to the vehicle in front then City Safety™ can
completely prevent a collision.
City Safety™ activates a short, sharp braking
and stops the car in normal circumstances,
just behind the vehicle in front. For most dri-
vers this is well outside normal driving style
and may be experienced as being uncomfort-
able.
If the difference in speed between the vehi-
cles is greater than 15 km/h then City
Safety™ may not prevent the collision on its
own. To obtain full brake force, the driver
must depress the brake pedal. This could
then make it possible to prevent a collision,
even at speed differences above 15 km/h.
When the function is activated and brakes,
the combined instrument panel shows a text
message to the effect that the function is/has
been active.
NOTE
When City Safety™ brakes, the brake
lights come on.

City Safety™ - operation
City Safety™ is a function for helping the
driver to avoid a collision when driving in
queues, amongst other things, when changes
in the traffic ahead, combined with a lapse in
attention, could lead to an incident.
On and Off
NOTE
The City Safety™ function is always
switched on after the engine has been
started via key position
I
and
II
(p. 71).
In certain situations, it may advisable to disa-
ble City Safety™, e.g. where leafy branches
could sweep over the bonnet and/or wind-
screen.
After starting the engine City Safety™ can be
deactivated as follows: The function can be
activated/deactivated in the menu system
MY
CAR
. For a description of the menu system,
see MY CAR (p. 106).
However, the function will be enabled the
next time the engine is started, regardless of
whether the system was enabled or disabled
when the engine was switched off.
