Important warnings
WARNING
The driver support system only issues a
warning for obstacles detected by its radar
sensor – thus, a warning may come after a
delay or not at all.
Never wait for a warning or assistance.

Apply the brakes when necessary.

WARNING
Warnings and brake interventions can
•
be triggered late or not at all if the traf-
fic situation or external influences pre-
vent the camera and radar unit from
properly detecting pedestrians,
cyclists, large animals or vehicles
ahead of the vehicle.
To be able to detect vehicles at night,
•
its front and rear lights must work and
illuminate clearly.
The camera and radar unit have a lim-
•
ited range for pedestrians and cyclists
– the system can provide effective
warnings and brake interventions if the
relative speed is lower than 50 km/h
(30 mph). For stationary or slow-mov-
ing vehicles, warnings and brake inter-
ventions are effective at vehicle speeds
of up to 70 km/h (43 mph). Speed
reduction for large animals is less than
15 km/h (9 mph) and can be achieved
at vehicle speeds over 70 km/h
(43 mph). At lower speeds, the warn-
ing and brake intervention for large ani-
mals is less effective.
Warnings for stationary or slow-mov-
•
ing vehicles and large animals can be
disengaged due to darkness or poor
visibility.
Warnings and brake interventions for
•
pedestrians and cyclists are disen-
gaged at vehicle speeds over 80 km/h
(50 mph).
Do not place, affix or mount anything
•
on the inside or outside of the wind-
shield, or in front of or around the cam-
era and radar unit – this could disrupt
camera-based functions.
Objects, snow, ice or dirt in the area of
•
the camera sensor can reduce the
function, disengage it completely or
give an improper function response.
