Braking intervention
The warning prompts the driver to inter-
vene. During a warning, the maximum brak-
ing force is used. In order to activate the
Brake Assistant function, you must apply
the brakes quickly and forcefully. If there is
a risk of collision, the system may assist
with braking. When the vehicle is traveling
at a low speed, the vehicle may come to a
complete stop.
Manual transmission: during a braking in-
tervention up to a complete stop, the engine
may be shut down.
The driver may interrupt the braking inter-
vention function by stepping on the acceler-
ator pedal or by actively moving the steer-
ing wheel.
The system’s ability to detect objects may
be limited in some circumstances. Refer to
the information in this Owner’s Manual re-
garding the limitations of the system and
actively intervene as warranted.
System limits
Safety information
Warning
The system is designed to operate in cer-
tain conditions and circumstances. Due to
conditions or other factors, the system
may not respond. There may be a risk of
accident or risk of damage to property. Ac-
tively intervene as warranted. Refer to the
information in this Owner’s Manual re-
garding the scope of the system’s opera-
tion and limitations.
Detection range
The detection potential of the camera is lim-
ited.
Thus, a warning might not be issued or be
issued late.
The following situations may not be de-
tected, for example:
– Partially covered pedestrians.
– Pedestrians that are not detected as
such because of the viewing angle or
contour.
– Pedestrians outside of the detection
range.
– Pedestrians having a body size less than
32 in/80 cm.
Functional limitations
The system may not be fully functional or
may not be available in the following situa-
tions:
– In heavy fog, wet conditions, or snow-
fall.
– In tight curves.
– If the field of view of the camera or the
windshield is dirty or covered.
– If the driving stability control systems
are deactivated, for instance DSC OFF.
– Up to 10 seconds after the start of the
engine via the Start/Stop button.
– During calibration of the camera imme-
diately after vehicle delivery.
– If there are constant blinding effects be-
cause of oncoming light, for instance
from the sun low in the sky.
– When it is dark outside.
Brake force display
Concept
Additional brake lights indicate emergency
braking to the traffic behind. This can re-
duce the risk of a rear-end collision.
