or collision situations.
General information

driving situations that might lead to an acci‐
dent. This includes the following critical driving
situations:
▷ Emergency stop.

ing function or Night Vision with Dynamic

personal responsibility. Due to the system lim‐
its, critical situation could not be detected reli‐
ably or in time. There is a risk of an accident.
Adjust the driving style to the traffic condi‐

When the safety belt is fastened, the driver's

tightened once after driving away.
In accident-critical situations, the following in‐
dividual functions become active as needed:
▷ Automatic pretensioning of the front safety
belts.
▷ Automatic window closing up to a narrow
gap.

cluding sliding visor.
▷ For vehicles equipped with comfort seats

After a critical driving situation without an acci‐

If the belt tension does not loosen automati‐
cally, stop the vehicle and unbuckle the safety
belt using the red button in the buckle. Fasten
the safety belt before continuing on your trip.
All other systems can be restored to the de‐
sired setting.
