Preventive occupant safety*
(PRE-SAFE)
®
Your vehicle automatically takes preven-
tive measures to better protect the occu-
pants in the following hazardous
situations:
앫
You execute an emergency braking
maneuver and the Brake Assist System
(
컄 page 95) is activated.
앫
The PRE-SAFE
®
system detects a criti-
cal driving dynamics situation.
In such cases, the following systems are
automatically activated:
앫
The front seat belts are pre-tensioned
electrically.
Vehicles with front passenger seat
memory function*:
앫
If the OCS senses that the front pas-
senger seat is occupied and the seat is
in an unfavorable position, it will be
adjusted to a better position.
Vehicles with power tilt/sliding sunroof*:
앫
The tilt/sliding sunroof closes if the
vehicle is in a severe skid or is
spinning.
If the seat belts do not release:
왘 Adjust the backrest or seat slightly to
the rear until the seat belt tension is di-
minished.
The locking mechanism releases.
Warning!
G
The PRE-SAFE
®
system is intended to re-
duce the effects of an accident on properly
seat-belted vehicle occupants. Despite
having the PRE-SAFE
®
system in your vehi-
cle, the possibility of injuries occurring as a
result of an accident cannot be eliminated.
Therefore, you should always drive carefully
and adjust your driving to the prevailing
road, weather, and traffic conditions.
i
If the closing procedure of the tilt/slid-
ing sunroof is blocked, the tilt/sliding
sunroof will stop and open slightly.
i
The PRE-SAFE
®
system is activated in
the previously described circumstanc-
es only at speeds exceeding 22 mph
(35 km/h).
When the critical driving dynamic situa-
tion has passed without an accident oc-
curring, the pre-tensioning on the seat
belts is deactivated.
You can then adjust the seat and the
tilt/sliding sunroof to their previous
position.
