The

display are then not shown.
Problems with cruise control
The speed cannot be set when cruise control is
activated.
The display is showing a message of high priority
and cannot therefore show a change in speed.

Proceed as instructed by the message in the

COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST
General notes
COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST helps you:
R
to minimize the risk of a front-end collision
with a detected obstacle in the path of your
vehicle
R
to reduce the consequences of a front-end
collision
The system uses radar sensors to detect vehi-
cles in front.
COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST consists of the
distance warning function and Adaptive Brake
Assist.
If COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST is malfunc-
tioning, the display shows a corresponding mes-
sage (

page 214).
Distance warning function
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
The distance warning function does not react:
R
to people or animals
R
to oncoming vehicles
R
to crossing traffic
R
when cornering
Thus, the distance warning function cannot
provide a warning in all critical situations.
There is a risk of an accident.
Always pay careful attention to the traffic sit-
uation and be ready to brake.
G
WARNING
The distance warning function cannot always
clearly identify objects and complex traffic
situations.
In such cases, the distance warning function
may:
R
give an unnecessary warning
R
not give a warning
There is a risk of an accident.
Always pay careful attention to the traffic sit-
uation and do not rely solely on the distance
warning function.
In particular, the detection of obstacles can be
impaired in the case of:
R
dirt on the sensors or anything else covering
the sensors
R
it is snowing or raining heavily
R
there is interference from other radar sources
R
the possibility of strong radar reflections, for
example, in parking garages.
R
a narrow vehicle traveling in front, e.g. a
motorbike
R
a vehicle traveling in front on a different line
Due to the nature of the system, particularly
complicated but non-critical driving conditions
may also cause the system to display a warning.
If you fail to adapt your driving style, the dis-
tance warning function can neither reduce the
risk of an accident nor override the laws of phys-
ics. The distance warning function cannot take
into account road, weather or traffic conditions.
The distance warning function is only an aid. You
are responsible for the distance to the vehicle in
front, for vehicle speed, braking in good time
and for staying in your lane.
Following damage to the front end of the vehicle,
have the configuration and operation of the
radar sensor checked at a qualified specialist
workshop. This also applies to collisions at slow
speeds where there is no visible damage to the
front of the vehicle.
