Optical and acoustic collision warning
When you switch on the appropriate turn
signals to change lanes and a vehicle is
detected in the side monitoring range of
Active Blind Spot Assist, you receive an
optical and acoustic collision warning. You
then hear a double warning tone and red
warning lamp
:
flashes. If the turn signal
remains on, detected vehicles are indicated
by the flashing of red warning lamp
:
. There
are no further warning tones.
Course-correcting brake application
If Active Blind Spot Assist detects a risk of
collision in the monitoring range, under
certain circumstances, it will brake the
vehicle briefly on one side. This is designed to
help you avoid a collision.
This function is available at speeds between
20 mph and 120 mph (30 km/h and
200 km/h).
When a course-correcting brake application
occurs, red warning lamp
:
flashes in the
exterior mirror and the following is shown in
the multifunction display, for example:

Warning
Active Blind Spot Assist is only an aid
designed to assist driving. It is not a substitute
for attentive driving. In some cases, the
course-correcting brake application is not
sufficient to avoid a collision. In such a case,
you must steer, brake or accelerate.
In very rare cases, the system may
erroneously detect a danger of collision in the
area of crash barriers or similar lane borders
and apply the brakes. Active Blind Spot Assist
does not detect all traffic situations and road
users. Always make sure that there is
sufficient distance to the side for other traffic
or obstacles. An inappropriate brake
application may be interrupted at any time if
you steer slightly in the opposite direction or
accelerate.
You are responsible for the vehicle's speed,
braking in good time, and steering correctly.
Always adapt your driving style to suit the
prevailing road and weather conditions.
Always pay attention to traffic conditions and
your surroundings. Otherwise, you may fail to
recognize dangers in time, cause an accident
and injure yourself and others.
Either a very slight, course-correcting brake
application, or none at all, may occur if:
R
other vehicles and/or objects, such as
crash barriers, are detected in the
immediate vicinity of your vehicle.
R
a vehicle approaches you too closely at the
side.
R
you have adopted a sporty driving style with
high cornering speeds.
R
you clearly brake or accelerate.
R
a driving safety system intervenes, such as
ESP
®
or PRE-SAFE
®
Brake.
R
ESP
®
is deactivated.
R
a loss of tire pressure or a defective tire has
been detected and shown in the display.
