Function
Read and observe
on page 239 first.
In critical driving situations (e.g. during emergency braking or a sudden change
in direction), the following steps can be taken separately or combined in order
to reduce the risk of serious injury.
▶
The front passenger's and driver's seatbelts, if worn, are automatically ten-
sioned closely over the body.
Opened electrically powered door windows are closed automatically up to a
▶
gap of about 5 cm from the edge.
▶
The sliding/tilting roof is closed.
Once the critical driving situation has passed, the tension on the seatbelts will
be released again.
The system operates at two levels of protection.
The first level of protection
The system already intervenes in situations that may occur during dynamic
driving. As a result, this primarily helps to keep the driver and the passenger in
the correct seated position.
The first protection level can be deactivated in one of the following ways.
▶
In the infotainment system, in menu
er assistance.
▶
Deactivating the
TCS» page
211.
▶
By selecting the driving mode Sport
Provided that the driving mode Sport is not selected, the system is activated
over the two levels of protection after switching the ignition off and on again.
The second level of protection
The system intervenes only if the situation is evaluated as critical, such as
when panic braking at high speeds.
This level of protection cannot be deactivated.
Vehicles with the Front Assist system
Using this information, a system intervention may also occur when there is the
danger of a collision with an obstacle detected in front of the vehicle.
