The detection capacity of the
system and the automatic brak-
ing capacity are limited.
Two-wheeled vehicles for
instance might not be detected.

The system does not decelerate
in the following situations:



For pedestrians or similarly
slow-moving road users.



For red traffic lights.



For cross traffic.



For oncoming traffic.

If a vehicle driving ahead of you
suddenly swerves into your

lane, the system may not be
able to automatically restore the
selected distance. It may not be
possible to restore the selected
distance in certain situations,
including if you are driving sig-
nificantly faster than vehicles
driving ahead of you, for
instance when rapidly approach-
ing a truck. When a vehicle driv-
ing ahead of you is reliably
detected, the system requests
that the driver intervene by brak-
ing and carrying out evasive
maneuvers, if needed.

When the desired speed is too
high for a curve, the speed is
reduced slightly. Because
curves may not be anticipated in
advance, drive into a curve at an
appropriate speed.
The system has a limited detec-
tion range. Situations can arise
in tight curves where a vehicle
driving ahead will not be
detected or will be detected very
late.

3-1. CONTROLS

When you approach a curve the
system may briefly report vehi-
cles in the next lane due to the
bend of the curve. If the system
decelerates you may compen-
sate it by briefly accelerating.
After releasing the accelerator
pedal the system is reactivated
and controls speed inde-
pendently.

In some situations, the vehicle
cannot drive off automatically;
for example:



On steep uphill grades.



From bumps in the road.

In these cases, step on the
accelerator pedal.

The following restrictions can
occur under unfavorable
weather or light conditions:



Poorer vehicle recognition.



Short-term interruptions for
vehicles that are already rec-
ognized.

Drive attentively, and react to
the current traffic situation. If
necessary, intervene actively,
for instance by braking, steering
or evading.

The desired speed is also main-
tained downhill. The speed may
not be maintained on uphill
grades if the engine power is
insufficient.

When the systems in the vehicle
e.g., Speed Limit Info, detect a
change of the speed limit along
the route, this new speed value
ca be applied for the following
systems:



Manual Speed Limiter.



Cruise Control.



Dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range.

The speed value is suggested
as the new desired speed to be
applied. To apply the speed
value, the corresponding system
must be activated.

WARNING

The system cannot serve as a

substitute for the driver’s personal

judgment in assessing the traffic

situation. Based on the limits of

the system, it cannot inde-

pendently react to all traffic situa-

tions. There is a risk of accident.

Adjust driving style to traffic condi-

tions. Watch the surrounding traf-

fic situation closely, be ready to

take over steering and braking at

any time, and actively intervene

where appropriate.

WARNING

The desired speed can be incor-

rectly adjusted or called up by

mistake. There is a risk of an acci-

dent. Adjust the desired speed to

Parking Sensor is a support
when parking. Objects that you
are approaching slowly in front
of or behind the vehicle are indi-
cated by signal tones and a dis-
play on the Control Display.
Depending on the equipment
version: Obstacles at the side of
the vehicle that are detected by
the side ultrasonic sensors may
also be reported by the side pro-
tection, refer to page 225, func-
tion.

The ultrasound sensors for dis-
tance measurements are
located in the bumpers and pos-
sibly on the sides of the vehicle.
The range, depending on the
obstacle and environmental
conditions, is approx. 6 ft/2 m.
An acoustic warning sounds in
case of an impending collision at
a distance to the object of
approx. 27 in/70 cm.
For objects behind the vehicle,
the acoustic warning is already
issued at a distance to the
object of approx. 5 ft/1.50 m.

General information

An intermittent tone indicates
when the vehicle is approaching
an object. For instance, if an

object is detected to the left rear
of the vehicle, a signal tone
sounds from the left rear
speaker.
The shorter the distance to the
object, the shorter the intervals.
If the distance to a detected
object is less than approx. 8
in/20 cm, a continuous tone is
sounded.
If there are objects in front of
and behind the vehicle at the
same time, with a distance
smaller than approx. 8 in/20 cm,
an alternating constant tone will
sound.
Automatic transmission: the
intermittent tone and constant
tone are switched off if the
selector lever position P is
engaged.
The intermittent tone is switched
off after a short time when the
vehicle is stationary.
If an object approaches when
the vehicle is stationary, the
acoustic signal is reactivated.

are detected.
Pathway lines are faded in for
better estimation of the required

The emergency braking function
of Parking Sensor initiates an
emergency braking in case of
acute risk of collision.

Due to system limits, a collision
cannot be prevented under all
circumstances.
The function is available from
walking speed while backing up
or rolling backward.
A press of the accelerator pedal
interrupts the braking interven-
tion.
After emergency braking to a
stop, further creeping toward an
obstacle is possible. To creep
toward the obstacle, lightly
press the accelerator pedal and
release it again.
If the accelerator pedal is heav-

The system does not detect
whether an obstacle moves later

The detection of objects with
ultrasonic measurements can
run into physical limits, e.g., in
the following situations:



With obstacles and persons at
the edge of the lane.



Low objects already dis-
played, for instance curbs,
can move into the blind area
of the sensors before or after
a continuous tone sounds.

Reaching the system limits can
cause false warnings.
To prevent false alarms, switch

necessarily available in your
vehicle, e.g., due to the selected
options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When
using these functions and sys-
tems, the applicable laws and
regulations must be observed.

The chassis components are
optimized for the vehicle and its
scope of application and thereby
ensure the best possible Driving
Dynamics.

: if equipped

The Adaptive variable suspen-
sion is an intelligent, controllable
sport chassis/suspension.
The suspension reduces body
movements with a sporty driving
style or on an uneven road.

The intelligent control of the
chassis increases the driving
dynamics and driving comfort
depending on the road condition
and driving style.

The system offers different
shock absorber settings rang-
ing from comfortable travel to
sporty driving.
The shock absorbers are
adjusted depending on the
selected driving mode as well as
the road condition and driving
style.
