Safety
The system is controlled by a camera in the
area of the rear-view mirror.
The front-end collision warning is also avail‐
able if the Cruise Control is disabled.
When deliberately approaching a vehicle, the
front-end collision warning and braking inter‐
vention are activated later to avoid unjustified
system responses.
General
The system will provide a warning from ap‐
proximately 5 km/h, approximately 3 mph in
two stages of any risk of collision with vehicles.
The timing of these warnings may vary de‐
pending on the current driving situation.
Braking intervention is permitted up to a speed
of approximately 60km/h, 35 mph.
Detection range
Objects detected by the system are taken into
account.

The system does not release you from
your personal responsibility to assess the visi‐
bility conditions and traffic situation correctly.
There is a danger of accidents. Adapt your
driving style to the traffic conditions. Observe
the traffic situation and intervene actively if the
situation warrants it.◀
