Emergency Assist
How it works
Emergency Assist can detect whether there is
inactivity by the driver and can automatically
keep the car in its lane and stop it altogether
if necessary. This way the system can actively
help avoid an accident or reduce its conse-
quences.
Emergency Assist uses the same sensors as
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane As-
sist. Therefore, carefully read the information
about the ACC ›››page151 and Lane Assist
›››
page162 and take into account the limita-
tions of the systems and the indications given
in the information.
Driver intervention prompt
If the emergency assist detects that the driver
is not actively doing anything, he or she is
prompted to take control of the vehicle by
audio warnings and a brief application of the
brake. In addition, a warning is shown on the
instrument cluster display and the volume of
the infotainment system is lowered.
Depending on the equipment, the driver’s seat
belt is tightened at the same time.
System intervention
If the driver does not react, the system can
brake the vehicle and keep it in its lane. The
following control lamp lights up on the instru-
ment cluster display:
The system is regulating.
You can cancel the adjustment at any time by
moving the steering wheel, over-accelerating
or braking.
While the emergency assistant is in operation,
other road users are warned as follows:
●
The hazard warning lights are switched on
soon after.
●
The horn sounds (depending on the speed).
The following happens as soon as the vehicle
stops:
●
The electronic parking brake is activated.
●
All doors are unlocked.
●
The interior lighting comes on.
●
Depending on the features, an emergency
call (eCall) is made.
Connecting and disconnecting
Emergency Assist can be switched on and o
in the assistants menu of the infotainment sys-
tem.
When connected, the Emergency Assist is only
activated if the following requirements are met:
●
The Travel Assist or the Lane Assist are
switched on.
●
The system has detected a road lane marking
on both sides of the vehicle.
Note
If the emergency assist is faulty, it may switch
o automatically.
