Detection range
With the Intersection Warning function,
the following may not be detected or may
be detected only with a delay in the detec-
tion range of the sensors, e.g.:
– Crossing vehicles when they are hidden,
e.g. by buildings.
– Vehicles with an unusual side view.
– Vehicles in highly dynamic driving sit-
uations.
Evasion Assistant
Principle
The Evasion Assistant can help the driver
perform evasive maneuvers in certain situa-
tions, e.g., when obstacles or pedestrians
appear suddenly. This system intervenes ac-
tively to assist the driver if it is possible to
make an evasive maneuver to the side.
If the system detects sufficient free space
alongside the vehicle, it helps the driver
perform an evasive maneuver safely.
This system warns the driver of a possible
risk of collision by displaying various warn-
ing lights on the Interaction Unit.
The sensors monitor and detect the clear-
ance in front of the vehicle. Depending on
the vehicle equipment, the areas next to the
vehicle are also monitored.
