Course-correcting brake application
G
WARNING
A course-correcting brake application cannot
always prevent a collision. There is a risk of
an accident.
Always steer, brake or accelerate yourself,
especially if Active Blind Spot Assist warns
you or makes a course-correcting brake appli-
cation. Always maintain a safe distance at the
sides.
Example: CLS Coupé
If Active Blind Spot Assist detects a risk of a
side impact in the monitoring range, a course-
correcting brake application is carried out.
This is designed to help you avoid a collision.
If a course-correcting brake application
occurs, red warning lamp
:
flashes in the
exterior mirror and a dual warning tone
sounds. In addition, the display shown in the
lower image appears in the multifunction dis-
play.
In very rare cases, the system may make an
inappropriate brake application. An inappro-
priate course-correcting brake application
may be interrupted at any time if you steer
slightly in the opposite direction or acceler-
ate, for example.
The course-correcting brake application is
available in the speed range between
30 km/h and 200 km/h.
Either a course-correcting brake application
appropriate to the driving situation, or none
at all, may occur if:
R
there are vehicles or obstacles, e.g. crash
barriers, on both sides of your vehicle
R
a vehicle approaches too closely on the
side
R
you have adopted a sporty driving style with
high cornering speeds
R

R
a driving safety system intervenes, such as
ESP
®
or PRE-SAFE
®
Brake
R
ESP
