Warning function
The Forward Collision Mitigation warns on
different warning levels, depending on the
respective hazardous situation.
In the event of a prewarning, a warning
light illuminates red. In the event of an
acute warning, a warning light flashes red
and a warning tone sounds.
In the event of a system warning, the driver
must intervene immediately and in accord-
ance with the situation.
– Red warning light illuminates:
A hazardous situation has been de-
tected. Increased awareness is required.
– Red warning light flashes:
There is a risk of collision. Intervene
immediately.
– A warning signal sounds:
There is a risk of collision. Intervene
immediately.
– Automatic brake intervention:
Depending on the equipment and situa-
tion in case of risk of imminent colli-
sion, the system can also intervene with
an automatic brake intervention and
automatically decelerate the vehicle, if
necessary, to a complete stop.
When the brake pedal is depressed quickly
and hard, the maximum brake power of the
vehicle is used.
Automatic brake intervention
If there is a risk of collision, the Forward
Collision Mitigation system can assist with
an automatic brake intervention, if neces-
sary.
When the vehicle is traveling at a low
speed, the vehicle may come to a complete
stop.
A brake intervention can be canceled by
depressing the accelerator pedal with suffi-
cient force, releasing the brake pedal, or by
actively steering.
Depending on the equipment and situation,
the brake intervention can occur up to ap-
prox. 155 mph/250 km/h.
At speeds above approx.
130 mph/210 km/h, only a brief brake in-
tervention will occur.
System limits
Safety information
Warning
Because of system limitations, this system
may either not respond, or respond too
late, incorrectly, or without cause. There
is a risk of accident, injury, or property
damage. Actively intervene as warranted.
Refer to the information in this Owner’s
Manual regarding the scope of the sys-
tem’s operation and limitations.
Detection capability
The detection capability of the Forward Col-
lision Mitigation is restricted.
The system only takes into account objects
that are located in the detection range of
the installed sensors and are detected by
the system.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the
area is monitored by cameras or radar sen-
sors. Thus, a system response might not
come or might come late.
System limits of the sensors
Forward Collision Mitigation may be re-
stricted by the system limits of the sensors.
Additional information:
Sensors of the vehicle, refer to page 34.
