BAS (Brake Assist)
General notes
BAS operates in emergency braking situa-
tions. If you depress the brake pedal quickly,
BAS automatically boosts the braking force,
thus shortening the stopping distance.

WARNING
If BAS is malfunctioning, the braking distance
in an emergency braking situation is
increased. There is a risk of accident.
In an emergency braking situation, depress
the brake pedal with full force. ABS prevents
the wheels from locking.

BAS PLUS (Brake Assist PLUS) with
Cross-Traffic Assist
General notes
i Observe the "Important safety notes" sec-
tion (
Y
page 72).
BAS PLUS is only available on vehicles with
the Driving Assistance package.
For BAS PLUS to assist you when driving, the
radar sensor system and the camera system
must be operational.
With the help of a sensor system and a cam-
era system, BAS PLUS can detect obstacles:
R
that are in the path of your vehicle for an
extended period of time.
R
that cross the path of your vehicle.
In addition, pedestrians in the path of your
vehicle can be detected.
BAS PLUS detects pedestrians using typical
characteristics such as the body contours
and posture of a person standing upright.
If the radar sensor system or the camera sys-
tem is malfunctioning, BAS PLUS functions
are restricted or no longer available. The
brake system is still available with complete
brake boosting effect and BAS.
i Observe the restrictions described in the
"Important safety notes" sec-
tion“ (
Y
page 73).
BAS PLUS can help you to minimise the risk
of a collision with a vehicle or a pedestrian
and reduce the effects of such a collision. If
BAS PLUS detects a danger of collision, you
are assisted when braking.
