200 Driving and operating
supplemental use only to reduce
the vehicle speed before a
collision.
The system may not react to
animals. After a sudden lane
change, the system needs a
certain time to detect the next
preceding vehicle.
The driver must always be ready
to take action and apply the brakes
and steer to avoid collisions.
Functionality
Active emergency braking is
equipped with a front camera and
operates in forward gear in the range
between 3 mph and 53 mph. The
system detects stationary vehicles
only if the speed does not exceed
50 mph.
A precondition is that forward collision
alert with front camera system is not
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation menu 3 83.
The system includes:
● emergency automatic braking
● forward looking brake assist
● forward collision alert
● front pedestrian protection
Emergency automatic braking
After activation of brake preparation
system and just before the imminent
collision, this function automatically
applies limited braking to reduce the
impact speed of the collision or
prohibit a crash. If active emergency
braking is applied, m flashes in the
instrument cluster. Depending on the
situation, the vehicle may
automatically brake moderately or
hard. This front automatic braking can
only occur if a vehicle or a pedestrian
ahead is detected.
Forward collision alert 3 197.
Front pedestrian protection 3 202.
Emergency automatic braking may
slow the vehicle to a complete stop to
try to avoid a potential crash.
9 Warning
Emergency automatic braking is
an emergency crash preparation
feature and is not designed to
avoid crashes. Do not rely on the
system to brake the vehicle.
Emergency automatic braking will
not brake outside of its operating
speed range and only responds to
detected vehicles and
pedestrians.
Forward looking brake assist
In addition to emergency automatic
braking, the forward looking brake
assist function makes the brake assist
more sensitive. Therefore, pressing
the brake pedal less strongly results
in immediate hard braking. This
function helps the driver brake
quicker and harder before the
imminent collision.
