Safety information
Warning
The system cannot serve as a substitute for
the driver's personal judgment. Due to the
system limits, critical situations might not be
detected reliably or in time. There is a risk
of accident. Adjust driving style to traffic con-
ditions. Watch surrounding traffic closely and
actively intervene where appropriate.
Function
Depending on the equipment and require-
ments, the following individual functions are
active in accident-critical driving situations:
▷ Automatic closing of the windows.
The windows remain open with a small
gap.
▷ Automatic closing of glass sunroof.
▷ Automatic positioning of the backrest for
the front passenger seat.
▷ Rear comfort seats: automatic positioning
of the rear seat backrests.
Systems can be returned to the desired set-
tings following a critical driving situation with-
out accident.

Principle
In certain accident situations, the PostCrash –
iBrake can automatically bring the vehicle to a

At standstill
After coming to a halt, the brake is released
automatically.
Harder vehicle deceleration
In certain situations, it may be necessary to
bring the vehicle to a halt more quickly than
automatic braking with PostCrash iBrake al-
lows.
To do this, quickly apply extra force to the
brake. For a brief period, the brake pressure
will be higher than the brake pressure that is
achieved by the automatic brake function. Au-
tomatic braking is interrupted.
Abort automatic braking
It may be necessary to interrupt automatic
braking in certain situations, for instance when
making an evasive maneuver.
Abort automatic braking:
▷ By depressing the brake pedal.
▷ By pressing the accelerator pedal.
Fatigue alert
Principle
The Fatigue Alert break recommendation fea-
ture can detect when the driver is fatigued or
less alert during long, monotonous trips, for in-
stance on highways. The system recommends
a break.
Safety information
Warning
The system cannot serve as a substitute for
the driver's personal judgment in assessing
one's physical state. An increasing lack of
alertness or fatigue may not be detected or
not be detected in time. There is a risk of
accident. Make sure that the driver is rested
