& WARNING Risk of accident despite Blind
Spot Assist
Blind Spot Assist does not react to vehicles
approaching and overtaking you at a greatly
different speed.
Blind Spot Assist cannot warn drivers in this
situation.
Always pay careful attention to the traffic
#
situation and maintain a safe distance at
the side of the vehicle.
Exit warning
The exit warning is an additional function of Blind
Spot Assist and Active Blind Spot Assist and can
warn vehicle occupants attempting to leave a sta-
tionary vehicle about approaching vehicles.
& WARNING Risk of accident despite exit
warning
The exit warning neither reacts to stationary
objects nor to persons or road users
approaching you at a greatly differing speed.
The exit warning cannot warn drivers in these
situations.
Always pay particular attention to the
#
traffic situation when opening the doors
and make sure there is sufficient clear-
ance.
If a vehicle is detected in the monitoring range,
the red warning lamp lights up in the correspond-
ing outside mirror.
If a vehicle occupant pulls the door handle on the
side of the warning, a warning tone sounds twice
and the ambient lighting in the respective door
and the warning lamps in the corresponding out-
side mirror flash red.

The warning assistance can differ depending
on the equipment and may vary according to
the setting.
This exit warning is only available when Blind Spot
Assist is active.
After the vehicle is switched off, the exit warning
continues to function for a few minutes. When the
outside mirror warning lamp flashes three times,
the exit warning is no longer available.
The exit warning is only an aid and not a substi-
tute for the attention of vehicle occupants. The
responsibility for opening and closing the doors
and for leaving the vehicle remains with the vehi-
cle occupants.
