Safety information

The system can react not at all, too late,
incorrectly, or without justification due to the
system limits. There is a risk of accidents or
risk of damage to property. Follow the informa‐
tion regarding the system limits and actively
intervene, if needed.◀
Functional limitations
The system may not be fully functional in the
following situations:
In heavy fog, wet conditions, or snowfall.
In the event of missing, worn, poorly visi‐
ble, merging, diverging, or multiple lane
markings such as in construction areas.
When lane markings are covered in snow,
ice, dirt or water.
In tight curves or on narrow lanes.
When the lane markings are covered by
objects.
When driving very close to the vehicle in
front of you.
If there are constant blinding effects be‐
cause of oncoming light, for instance from
the sun low in the sky.
If the field of view of the camera or the
windshield is dirty or covered in the area of
the interior mirror.
If the camera has overheated and been
temporarily switched off due to excessively
high temperatures.
Up to 10 seconds after the start of the en‐
gine via the Start/Stop button.
During calibration of the camera immedi‐
ately after vehicle delivery.
A Check Control message is displayed when
the system is not fully functional.
Active Blind Spot Detection
Concept
Active Blind Spot Detection detects vehicles in
the blind spot or vehicles approaching from
behind in the adjacent lane. A warning is is‐
sued in various gradations in these situations.
General information
Two radar sensors in the rear bumper monitor
the area behind and next to the vehicle when
traveling faster than a minimum speed.
The minimum speed is shown in the menu for
the Intelligent Safety systems.
The system indicates whether there are vehi‐
cles in the blind spot, arrow 1, or approaching
from behind in the adjacent lane, arrow 2.
The light in the exterior mirror lights up dim‐
med.
Before you change lanes after setting the turn
signal, the system issues a warning in the sit‐
uations described above.
The light in the exterior mirror flashes and the
steering wheel vibrates.
Vehicles with side collision warning: at speeds
between 45 mph/70 km/h and
130 mph/210 km/h, the system can intervene
with a brief active steering intervention and
help to return the vehicle into the lane.
