CONTROLS
Intersection warning with
City light braking function
Principle
The Intersection Collision Warning can help
prevent accidents with cross traffic at intersec-
tions and junctions. In the event of an accident,
the system helps by reducing impact speed.
At speeds that are common in towns and cit-
ies, the system warns the driver of a possible
risk of collision and brakes automatically if nec-
essary.
General information
Sensors detect the traffic situation in their de-
tection range.
Vehicles that cross your driving direction can
be detected by the system as soon as these
vehicles enter into the detection range of the
system.
At intersections and junctions, a warning is is-
sued when a risk of collision with crossing traf-
fic is detected.
The system issues a two-phase warning of
a possible risk of collision with vehicles at
speeds above approx. 6 mph/10 km/h. The
timing of warnings may vary with the current
driving situation.
The Driver Attention Camera in the instrument
cluster captures the driver's field of vision. Ad-
ditionally, the system checks for visual impair-
ments. Field of vision and visibility also affect
the timing of the warnings.
Safety information

the driver's personal judgment in assessing

tions. Watch surrounding traffic closely and
actively intervene where appropriate.
