PRE-SAFE (anticipatory occupant
protection system)
Introduction
In certain hazardous situations, PRE-SAFE
takes pre-emptive measures to protect the vehi-
cle occupants.
Important safety notes
!
Make sure that there are no objects in the
footwell or behind the seats. There is a danger
that the seats and/or objects could be dam-
aged when PRE-SAFE
®
®
is activated.
Occupant safety
Although your vehicle is equipped with PRE-
®
SAFE , the possibility of injury in the event of an
accident cannot be ruled out. Always adapt your
driving style to suit the prevailing road and
weather conditions and maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front. Drive carefully.
Function
®
PRE-SAFE intervenes:
in emergency braking situations, e.g. when
R
BAS is activated
in critical driving situations, e.g. when physi-
R
cal limits are exceeded and the vehicle under-
steers or oversteers severely
on vehicles with the Driving Assistance pack-
R
age: if BAS PLUS intervenes powerfully or the
radar sensor system detects an imminent
danger of collision in certain situations
®
PRE-SAFE takes the following measures
depending on the hazardous situation detected:
the front seat belts are pre-tensioned.
R
the front-passenger seat is adjusted if it is in
R
an unfavorable position.
if the vehicle skids, the front side windows
R
and the panorama roof with power tilt/sliding
panel are closed.
the air pressure in the side bolsters of the seat
R
backrests of the front multicontour seats is
raised.
If the hazardous situation passes without result-
ing in an accident, PRE-SAFE
pre-tensioning. On vehicles with multicontour
seats, the air pressure in the side bolsters is
reduced again. All settings made by PRE-SAFE
can then be reversed.
If the seat belt pre-tensioning is not reduced:
Move the seat backrest or seat back slightly
X
when the vehicle is stationary.
The seat belt pre-tensioning is reduced and
the locking mechanism is released.
The seat-belt adjustment is an integral part of
®
the PRE-SAFE convenience function. Informa-
tion about the convenience function can be
found under "Belt adjustment" (
