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
situation 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,
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.◀
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
following situations:
In heavy fog, wet conditions, or snowfall.
In tight curves.
If the driving stability control systems are
limited or deactivated, for instance DSC
OFF.
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.
Depending on the equipment: if the radar
sensors are dirty or covered.
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, for instance from
the sun low in the sky.
Person warning with City
light braking function
Concept
The system can help prevent accidents with
pedestrians.
When driving at city speeds, the system will is‐
sue a warning if there is imminent risk of a col‐
lision with pedestrians, and support with a
braking function.
General information
The system is active at speeds of approx.
3 mph/5 km/h up to approx. 40 mph/65 km/h.
The system reacts to people who are within
the detection range of the system.
The camera in the area of the interior mirror
controls the system.
