Rear Collision Warning
The Rear Collision Warning
111
(RCW) function
can help the driver to avoid being hit by a vehicle
approaching from behind.
Drivers in vehicles behind can be warned about
an imminent collision by the function flashing
intensively with the direction indicators.
If, at a speed below 30 km/h (20 mph), the func-
tion detects that the car is in danger of being hit
from behind, the seatbelt tensioners may ten-
sion the front seatbelts.
The Whiplash Protection System is also acti-
vated in the event of a collision.
Immediately before a collision from behind, this
function may also activate the foot brake in
order to reduce the forward acceleration of the
car during the collision. However, the foot brake
is only activated if the car is stationary. The foot
brake releases immediately if the accelerator
pedal is depressed.
This function is activated automatically each
time the engine is started.
