DRIVER SUPPORT
Your vehicle is equipped with a number of functions to help you
drive safely. These functions can be activated in the center dis-
play's Function view. Keep in mind that these driver support func-
tions are only aids. The driver always has full responsibility for oper-
ating the vehicle in a safe manner.
City Safety™
12
City Safety
can help assist the driver in order to help prevent or
mitigate a collision with other vehicles, large animals, pedestrians
or cyclists. Visual, acoustic and haptic signals are given to alert the
driver of a collision and assist you to act in time to avoid it. If you do
not react in time and a collision is almost unavoidable, the vehicle
can be braked automatically. City Safety steering assistance can
also strengthen your grip on the steering wheel if you have begun
an evasive maneuver. City Safety is activated when the engine is
switched on and cannot be switched off.
Blind Spot Information (BLIS)*
BLIS can notify the driver of vehicles in your blind spot and
of rapidly approaching vehicles in adjacent lanes.
Cross Traffic Alert (CTA)*
Cross Traffic Alert with auto-brake is a supplementary
driver support system for BLIS that can alert the driver of
crossing traffic behind the vehicle. If the driver does not
react to the Cross Traffic Alert warning and a collision is
imminent, the function can help bring the vehicle to a stop.
The function is activated if reverse gear is engaged or if the
vehicle is rolling backwards.
Lane Keeping Aid
Lane Keeping Aid can help the driver reduce the risk of the
vehicle unintentionally veering out of the lane. To select the
type of assistance that should be provided, select
in the center display's top view.
Steering assistance during collision risks
The
Collision avoidance
reduce the risk of the vehicle unintentionally veering out of
the lane and/or colliding with another vehicle/obstacle by
actively steering the vehicle back into the lane and/or
swerving out of the way. The function consists of the sub-
functions Run-Off Mitigation with steering assistance,
Steering assistance during collision risks from oncoming
traffic and Steering assistance during collision risks from
behind*.
Pilot Assist
13
Pilot Assist
is a convenience function that can assist the driver in
keeping the vehicle in its own lane and at a set distance to the vehi-
cle ahead. For steering assistance to be possible, certain conditions
must be met, e.g. both of the driver's hands must be on the steer-
ing wheel and the lane markings must be visible. When steering
assistance is active, a GREEN steering wheel symbol will be dis-
played in the instrument panel.
