Warning with evasion support
Display in the instrument cluster
A warning symbol appears in the instrument
cluster and in the Head-up Display if a collision
with a detected vehicle is imminent.
Symbol Measure
Symbol lights up red: prewarning.
Brake and increase distance.
Symbol flashes red and an acoustic
signal sounds: acute warning.
Brake and make an evasive maneu‐
ver, if necessary.
Acute warning with evasion support
Acute warning is displayed in case of the immi‐
nent danger of a collision when the vehicle ap‐
proaches another object at a high differential
speed.
If an acute warning is issued, intervene in the sit‐
uation yourself. If there is a risk of collision, the
driver's evasive maneuvers are supported by the
system.
Acute warnings can also be triggered without
previous forewarning.
System limits
Safety information
WARNING
The system can react not at all, too late, incor‐
rectly, or without justification due to the system
limits. There is a risk of accidents or risk of
damage to property. Follow the information re‐
garding the system limits and actively intervene
if needed.
Detection range
The system's detection potential is limited.
Thus, a system reaction might not come or
might come late.
E.g., the following situations may not be de‐
tected:
Slow moving vehicles when you approach
them at high speed.
Vehicles that suddenly swerve in front of you,
or sharply decelerating vehicles.
Vehicles with an unusual rear appearance.
Two-wheeled vehicles ahead of you.
Functional limitations
The system may not be fully functional in the fol‐
lowing situations:
In heavy fog, wet conditions, or snowfall.
In tight curves.
If the driving stability control systems are lim‐
ited or deactivated, for instance DSC OFF.
If the field of view of the camera or the wind‐
shield is dirty or covered in the area of the in‐
terior mirror.
If the camera has overheated and been tem‐
porarily switched off due to excessively high
temperatures.
Depending on the equipment: if the radar
sensors are dirty or covered.
Up to 10 seconds after the start of the engine
via the Start/Stop button.
During calibration of the camera immediately
after vehicle delivery.
If there are constant blinding effects because
of oncoming light, for instance from the sun
low in the sky.
Person warning with City
light braking function
Concept
The system can help prevent accidents with pe‐
destrians.
