Active Blind Spot Assist with exit warning
Function of Active Blind Spot Assist with exit
warning
Active Blind Spot Assist uses radar sensors to
monitor the area up to 130 ft (40 m) behind and
10 ft (3 m) next to your vehicle.
The system can detect vehicles traveling from
speeds of approximately 8 mph (12 km/h) and
issue a warning if they move into the monitoring
range.
Status display in the driver's display
¸ Gray: the system is activated but inopera‐
tive.
¸ Green: the system is activated and opera‐
tional.
Driver display in the Assistance menu
If a vehicle is detected within the monitoring
range, the red warning lamp lights up in the cor‐
responding outside mirror. In the Assistance
menu, the lamp in outside mirror 1 also lights
up red, and the lane in which the vehicle is
detected is hatched out.
If a vehicle is detected in the monitoring range
and you switch on the turn signal indicator in the
corresponding direction, a warning tone sounds
twice and the warning lamp flashes red in the
respective outside mirror. Red radar waves 2
are displayed next to your vehicle in the assis‐
tance graphic.
If the turn signal indicator remains on, the dis‐
play in the outside mirror flashes for all other
detected vehicles, but no further warning tone
sounds. If you overtake a vehicle quickly, no
warning is given.
% Vehicles with active ambient lighting: if
Warning Support is activated, the Active
Blind Spot Assist warning is also accompa‐
nied by ambient lighting (

responsibility; you may otherwise fail to recog‐
nize dangers (
