actively take action either by manual
braking or by steering. For vehicles
equipped with camera and radar, active
emergency braking also detects cyclists.
Before the active emergency braking
applies, the driver is warned by the
Automatic Braking System.
Active emergency braking can
be deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation. If deactivated,
illuminates in the instrument panel
display. When ignition is switched on
next time, system is activated by default.
The feature uses various inputs (e.g.
camera sensor, radar sensor) to calculate
the probability of a frontal collision.
Functionality
Depending on the vehicle configuration
and the detected objects, there are
several operational speed ranges.
On vehicles equipped only with front
camera, the active emergency braking
operates from 5 km/h to 80 km/h when
vehicles, cyclists or pedestrians have
been detected.
On vehicles equipped with radar sensor
and front camera, the active emergency
braking operates from 5 km/h to
140 km/h when vehicles, cyclists or
pedestrians have been detected.
Active emergency braking only works
when the seat belts of the front seats
and depending on version of the rear
seats are fastened.
The system includes:
brake preparation system
emergency automatic braking
smart brake assist
front pedestrian protection
Brake preparation system
When approaching a vehicle ahead or
a pedestrian so quickly that a collision
is likely, the brake preparation system
slightly pressurises the brakes. This
reduces the response time, when braking
is requested.
Emergency automatic braking
After activation of brake preparation
system and just before the imminent
collision, this function automatically
applies braking to reduce the impact
speed of the collision or prohibit a crash.
If active emergency braking is applied,
flashes in the instrument panel
display.
Emergency automatic braking is
designed to react on vehicles or
pedestrians ahead. If the vehicle is
equipped with camera and radar, it also
reacts on cyclists ahead.
Below a speed of 50 km/h, emergency
automatic braking may slow down the
vehicle to a complete stop. If the speed
exceeds 50 km/h, emergency automatic
braking reduces the speed. For versions
with camera and radar, the speed
reduction may be extended to 50 km/h
if both sensors are able to detect the
hazard. However, the driver must apply
the brake to come to a complete stop.
Electric Drive Unit: If the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, automatic
braking is maintained for a certain
time. Keep the brake pedal depressed
to prevent the vehicle from starting off
again.
Manual transmission: If the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, the engine
may stall.
Cruise control and adaptive cruise
control will be deactivated when an
emergency automatic braking occurs.

Smart brake assist
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently
to avoid a collision, this system will
supplement the braking. This assistance
will only be provided if the driver presses
the brake pedal
Smart brake assist will automatically
disengage when the brake pedal is
released.
System limitations
In some cases, the active emergency
braking system may provide an
automatic braking in situations that
seem to be unnecessary, for instance
in parking garages, due to various
types of objects, i.e., traffic signs or
vehicles in another lane. Firmly apply
the accelerator pedal to override the
automatic braking if the situation and
the surroundings permit.
In the following cases, active emergency
braking performance might be limited:
driving on winding or hilly roads
