General information
PRE-SAFE
®
Brake can help you to minimize the
risk of a collision with a vehicle ahead or a
pedestrian, and reduce the effects of such a
collision. If PRE-SAFE
®

of collision, you will be warned visually and
acoustically as well as by automatic braking.
i
Pay attention to the important safety notes
in the "Driving safety systems" section
(
Y page 68).
PRE‑SAFE
®
Brake is only available in vehicles
with the Driving Assistance Plus package.
For PRE-SAFE
®
Brake to assist you when driving,
the radar sensor system and the camera system
must be switched on and be operational.
With the help of the radar sensor system and the
camera system, PRE-SAFE
®
Brake can detect
obstacles that are in front of your vehicle for an
extended period of time.
In addition, pedestrians in the path of your vehi-
cle can be detected.
PRE-SAFE
®
Brake detects pedestrians using
typical characteristics such as the body con-
tours and posture of a person standing upright.
i

(
Y page 77).
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
PRE-SAFE
®
Brake will initially brake your vehi-
cle by a partial application of the brakes if a
danger of collision is detected. There may be
a collision unless you brake yourself. Even
after subsequent full application of the brakes
a collision cannot always be avoided, partic-
ularly when approaching at too high a speed.
There is a risk of an accident.
Always apply the brakes yourself and try to
take evasive action, provided it is safe to do
so.
In the event of a partial application of the brakes,
the vehicle is braked with up to 50% of the full
braking pressure.
G
WARNING
PRE-SAFE
®
Brake cannot always clearly iden-
tify objects and complex traffic conditions.
In these cases, PRE-SAFE
®
Brake may:
R
give an unnecessary warning and then
brake the vehicle
R
not give a warning or intervene
There is a risk of an accident.
Always pay particular attention to the traffic
situation and be ready to brake, especially if
PRE-SAFE
®
Brake warns you. Terminate the
intervention in a non-critical driving situation.
G
WARNING
PRE-SAFE
®
Brake cannot always clearly iden-
tify people, especially if they are moving. In
these cases, PRE-SAFE
®
Brake cannot inter-
vene. There is a risk of an accident.
Always pay particular attention to the traffic
situation and be ready to brake, especially if
PRE-SAFE
®
Brake warns you.
