The corresponding indicator lights and warn-
ing lights may display differently if the system
detects multiple objects.
Warning function
The Forward Collision Mitigation warns on dif-
ferent warning levels, depending on the re-
spective hazardous situation.
In the event of a prewarning, a warning light
illuminates red. In the event of an acute warn-
ing, a warning light flashes red and a warning
tone sounds.
In the event of a system warning, the driver
must intervene immediately and in accordance
with the situation.
▷

diately.
▷
A warning signal sounds:

Automatic brake intervention:
Depending on the equipment and situation
in case of risk of imminent collision, the
system can also intervene with an auto-
matic brake intervention and automatically
decelerate the vehicle, if necessary, to a
complete stop.
When the brake pedal is depressed quickly and
hard, the maximum brake power 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.
When the vehicle is traveling at a low speed,
the vehicle may come to a complete stop.

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.
