System limits
Safety information
Warning
Due to its limits, the system may not react, or
it may react too late or in a manner that is not
consistent with normal use. There may be a
risk of accidents or risk of damage to prop-
erty. Actively intervene as warranted. Refer
to the information in this Owner’s Manual re-
garding the scope of the system’s operation
and limitations.
Detection capability
The detection capability of the collision warn-
ing systems is limited.
The system only takes into account objects
that are located in the detection range of the
installed sensors and are detected by the sys-
tem.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the area
is monitored by cameras or radar sensors.
Thus, a system response might not come or
might come late.
System limits of the sensors
The Intelligent Safety systems may be re-
stricted by the system limits of the sensors.
Additional information:
Sensors of the vehicle, refer to page 34.
Forward Collision Mitigation
with brake intervention
Principle
Forward Collision Mitigation with brake inter-
vention can help to prevent accidents within a
certain speed range. To do so, the area around
the vehicle is monitored by various sensors.
If an accident cannot be avoided, the system
can help reduce the severity of the accident.
The system can issue a warning of a possible
risk of collision and activate the brakes inde-
pendently, if needed. You can cancel automatic
brake intervention manually, e.g., by actively
moving the steering wheel.
Depending on vehicle equipment, the Forward
Collision Mitigation system includes the follow-
ing functions:
▷
The Rear-end collision warning function,
refer to page 170.
▷ The oncoming traffic warning function, refer
to page 171.
▷ The oncoming traffic warning function
when turning, refer to page 172.
▷ The pedestrian warning function, refer to
page 173.
▷ The intersection warning function, refer to
page 174.
▷ The Evasion Assistant, refer to page 175.
Forward Collision Mitigation can be activated
or deactivated on the control display. You can
also configure the warning time. Depending on
the detected risk of collision, various indicator
and warning lights are displayed on the instru-
ment cluster.
