236 Driving and parking
If autonomous braking or situation-dependent
braking assistance has occurred, display
appears in the Instrument Display and then auto-
matically goes out after a short time.
& WARNING Risk of an accident caused by
limited detection performance of Active
Brake Assist
Active Brake Assist cannot always clearly iden-
tify objects and complex traffic situations.
In such cases, Active Brake Assist might:
Give a warning or brake without reason
R
Not give a warning or not brake
R
Active Brake Assist is only an aid. The driver is
responsible for maintaining a sufficiently safe
distance to the vehicle in front, vehicle speed
and for braking in good time.
Always pay careful attention to the traffic
#
situation; do not rely on Active Brake
Assist alone.
Be prepared to brake or swerve if neces-
#
sary.
If Active Brake Assist is deactivated or the func-
1 tions are restricted, e.g. due to activation of
another driving system, the ê display message
appears in the driver's display.
If the system is unavailable due to dirty or dam-
aged sensors or due to a fault, or if the functions
are restricted, the Ó warning lamp appears in
the driver's display.
Also observe the system limits of Active Brake
Assist.
The individual subfunctions are available in vari-
ous speed ranges:
The distance warning function can issue a warn-
ing in the following situations:
From approximately 30 km/h, if over several
R
seconds the distance maintained to the vehi-
cle travelling in front is insufficient for the
driven speed, the L distance warning lamp
lights up in the instrument cluster.
From approximately 7 km/h, if your vehicle is
R
critically close to a vehicle, cyclist or pedes-
trian, you will hear an intermittent warning
tone and the L distance warning lamp
lights up in the instrument cluster.
Brake immediately or take evasive action, provi-
ded it is safe to do so and the traffic situation
allows this.
Distance warning function (vehicles without Driv-
ing Assistance Package)
The distance warning function can aid you in the
following situations with an intermittent warning
tone and a warning lamp:
at speeds up to approximately 250 km/h
R
when approaching vehicles ahead
at speeds up to approximately 80 km/h when
R
approaching stationary vehicles, pedestrians
walking in the direction of travel and cyclists
ahead
at speeds up to approximately 60 km/h when
R
approaching crossing pedestrians
