If the vehicle speed exceeds approx.
155 mph/250 km/h, the system is deacti-
vated temporarily.
Some functions are deactivated earlier.
The system is enabled as soon as the speed
drops below this value again.
Activating/deactivating the
Forward Collision Mitigation
Automatic activation of system
Depending on national-market version, the
Forward Collision Mitigation is automati-
cally activated whenever you start driving.
Activating the system manually
The Forward Collision Mitigation is acti-
vated by setting the warning time.
Additional information:
Set the warning time for Forward Collision
Mitigation, refer to page 168.
Deactivating the system manually
Depending on national-market version, you
must significantly reduce your vehicle's
speed or stop your vehicle in order to de-
activate the Forward Collision Mitigation
manually. Forward Collision Mitigation is
deactivated on the Interaction Unit.
It may be necessary to successively confirm
this deactivation on the Interaction Unit.
Go through the menu as follows:
Apps menu / "Vehicle" / "Driving
settings" / "Driver Assistance" / "Safety and
warnings" / "Forward Collision Mitigation" /
"Off".
Setting the warning time for
Forward Collision Mitigation
You can configure the warning time at
which Forward Collision Mitigation should
issue a warning.
1. Go through the menu as follows:
Apps menu / "Vehicle" / "Driving
settings" / "Driver Assistance" / "Safety
and warnings" / "Forward Collision
Mitigation".
2. Select the desired setting.
The more sensitive the warning time is set
to be, the more warnings will be displayed.
The system can therefore also issue more
early or unfounded warnings and reactions.

Forward Collision Mitigation is shown on
the Interaction Unit and, depending on ve-
hicle equipment, Head-up display by the fol-
lowing indicator lights and warning lights:
