CONTROLS
Side collision mitigation
Principle
The side-collision warning helps to avoid an
impending side collision.
General information
Radar sensors monitor the space next to the
vehicle when traveling faster than a minimum
speed and up to approx. 130 mph/210 km/h.
The minimum speed is country-specific and
displayed on the control display.
If, for example, another vehicle is detected next
to your vehicle and there is a risk of collision
with this vehicle, the system helps avoid a col-
lision. For this purpose, the system issues a
warning with a flashing LED in the exterior mir-
ror, a Check Control message and a vibrating
steering wheel. If necessary, an active steering
intervention is performed by the system.
Safety information
Follow the safety information in the "Forward
Collision Mitigation" chapter.
Functional requirement
The camera behind the windshield determines
the lane boundary positions.
The camera must detect the lane markings for
the side collision mitigation with steering inter-
vention to be active.
