Operation of the active hood (pedestrian pro‐
tection)
In certain accident situations, the risk of injury
to pedestrians can be reduced by the actuation
of the active hood. The rear area of the engine
hood is raised by approximately 85 mm.
For the drive to the workshop, reset the trig‐
gered active hood yourself. If the active hood
has been triggered, pedestrian protection may
be limited.
A qualified specialist workshop must re-instate
the full functionality of the active hood.
The active hood is not available in all countries.
