There is a risk of collision. Intervene your-
self immediately.
▷ Automatic brake intervention:
Depending on the equipment and situation
in case of an imminent danger of collision,
the system can also intervene with an auto-
matic brake intervention and automatically
decelerate the vehicle, if necessary, to a
complete standstill.
When the brake pedal is pressed quickly and
hard, the maximum brake force of the vehicle
is used.
Automatic brake intervention
In case of a risk of collision, the system can
assist with an automatic brake intervention, if
necessary.
At low speeds, the vehicle can be braked to a
standstill.
A brake intervention can be cancelled by suf-
ficiently stepping on the accelerator pedal, re-
leasing the brake pedal or with an active steer-
ing wheel movement.
City braking function: brake intervention takes
place at up to approx. 80 km/h, 50 mph.
With radar sensor: brake intervention takes
place at up to approx. 250 km/h, 155 mph.
At speeds above approx. 210 km/h/130 mph,
only a brief brake intervention will occur.

Safety information
WARNING
Due to system limitations, the system may
not respond at all, or may respond too late,
incorrectly or for no reason. There is a risk of
accident or material damage. Observe the in-
formation on the system limits and intervene
actively if necessary.

Safety
Detection capability
The detection capability of the system is limi-
ted.
Only objects within the detection range of the
installed sensors and that are detected by the
system are taken into account.
Depending on the equipment, the area is
monitored by cameras or radar sensors.
For this reason, the system may fail to respond
or only respond after a delay.
System limits of the sensors
For further information:
Sensors in the vehicle, see page 41.
Functional limitations
The system may have restricted functionality
in situations such as the following:
▷ In tight bends.
▷ With restriction of the driving stability con-
trol systems.
▷ Up to 10 seconds after switching on drive-
ready state using the Start/Stop button.
Collision Warning with
braking function
Principle
The Collision Warning with braking function
warns of a possible risk of collision and may
brake independently.
If an accident cannot be avoided, the system
helps to reduce the collision speed.
