Functional limitations
The system may not be fully functional in the
following situations:
In heavy fog, rain, sprayed water or snow‐
fall.
In tight curves.
If the driving stability control systems are
limited or deactivated, e.g., DSC OFF.
If the area of the front windshield in front of
the interior mirror is dirty or covered.
Depending on equipment, if the radar sen‐
sor is dirty or obscured.
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.
If there are constant blinding effects be‐
cause of oncoming light, e. g., from the sun
low in the sky.
Warning sensitivity
The more sensitive the warning settings are,
e.g. the warning time, the more warnings are
displayed. However, there may also be an ex‐
cess of premature warnings.
Pedestrian warning with City
braking function
The concept
The system can help prevent accidents with
pedestrians.
The system issues a warning in the city driving
speed area if there is imminent danger of a col‐
lision with pedestrians and includes a braking
function.
The camera in the area of the rearview mirror
controls the system.
Active Protection: if a collision seems to be un‐
avoidable, PreCrash functions are triggered.
General information
The system warns of possible collisions with
pedestrians at speeds from ap‐
prox. 6 mph/10 km/h to ap‐
prox. 35 mph/60 km/h and supports you with a
braking intervention shortly before a collision.
Under those circumstances it reacts to people
who are within the detection range of the sys‐
tem.
Detection range
The detection area in front of the vehicle is div‐
ided into two areas
Central area, arrow 1, directly in front of the
vehicle.
Expanded area, arrow 2, to the right and
left.
A collision is imminent if pedestrians are lo‐
cated within the central area. A warning is is‐
sued about pedestrians who are located within
the extended area only if they are moving in
the direction of the central area.
