With parking assistant: emergency
braking function, Active PDC
Concept
The emergency braking function of PDC ini‐
tiates an emergency braking in case of acute
risk of collision.
General information
Due to system limits, a collision cannot be pre‐
vented under all circumstances.
The function is available from walking speed
while backing up or rolling backward.
A press of the accelerator pedal interrupts the
braking intervention.
After emergency braking to a stop, further
creeping toward an obstacle is possible. To
creep toward the obstacle, lightly press the ac‐
celerator pedal and release it again.
If the accelerator pedal is heavily depressed,
the vehicle drives off as usual. Manual braking
is possible at any time.
The system uses the ultrasound sensors of
PDC and parking assistant.
Safety information

The system does not relieve from the
personal responsibility to correctly assess the
traffic situation. There is a risk of an accident.

tions. Watch traffic and vehicle surroundings
closely and actively intervene in the respective
situations.◀

With parking assistant: side
protection
Concept
The system warns of obstacles on the side of
the vehicle.
General information
The system uses the ultrasound sensors of
PDC and parking assistant.
Display
To protect the sides of the vehicle, obstacle
markings are displayed on the vehicle at the
sides.
Color markings, arrow 1: warning against
detected obstacles.
Gray markings, hatched area, arrow 2: no
obstacles were detected.
No markings, black area, arrow 3: the area
next to the vehicle was not yet captured.
Limits of side protection
The system only displays stationary obstacles
that were previously detected by sensors while
passing them.
The system does not detect whether an obsta‐
cle moves later on. If the vehicle is stationary,
the markings are shown in gray after some
time. The area next to the vehicle must be
newly captured.
