System limits
Safety information
Warning
Due to its limits, the system may not react, or
it may react too late or in a manner that is not
consistent with normal use. There may be a
risk of accidents or risk of damage to prop-
erty. Actively intervene as warranted. Refer
to the information in this Owner's Manual re-
garding the scope of the system's operation
and limitations.
Detection capability
The system's detection capability is limited.
The system only takes into account objects
that are located in the detection range of the
installed sensors and are detected by the sys-
tem.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the area
is monitored by cameras or radar sensors.
Thus, a system response might not come or
might come late.
System limits of the sensors

situations:
▷ In tight curves.

Warning function in forward
collision situations
Principle
The warning function in forward collision situa-
tions warns of a possible risk of collision and
may brake independently.
In the event of an accident, the system helps
by reducing impact speed.
General information
Sensors detect the traffic situation in their de-
tection range.
The system issues a warning of a possible risk
of collision with vehicles at speeds above ap-
prox. 3 mph/5 km/h. The timing of warnings
may vary with the current driving situation.
The system considers the driver's vehicle han-
dling when responding. If an active driving
style is detected, warnings and brake interven-
tions occur less frequently.
Safety information
Follow the safety information in Chapter "For-
ward Collision Mitigation".
Display in the instrument cluster
If there is a risk of collision with a detected
vehicle, a warning icon is displayed.
