or if:

pedestrians move quickly, e.g. into the path

of the vehicle

the camera system no longer recognizes a

pedestrian as a person due to special cloth-

ing or other objects

a pedestrian is concealed by other objects

the typical outline of a person is not distin-

guishable from the background

Following damage to the front end of the vehicle,

have the configuration and operation of the

radar sensors checked at a qualified specialist

workshop. This also applies to collisions at slow

speeds where there is no visible damage to the

front of the vehicle.

Following damage to the windshield, have the

configuration and operation of the camera sys-

tem checked at a qualified specialist workshop.

Function

To activate or deactivate: activate or deac-

tivate Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic

function using the on-board computer

(

Y page 237).

If the Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic

function is deactivated, the æ symbol

appears in the multifunction display.

If you have activated DSR (

Y page 216), the

Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic function is

deactivated.

Starting at a speed of around 4 mph (7 km/h),

this function warns you if you rapidly approach a

vehicle in front. An intermittent warning tone

will then sound and the · distance warning

lamp will light up in the instrument cluster.

Brake immediately to defuse the situation.

Take evasive action provided it is safe to do

so.

Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic function

can also brake the vehicle automatically under

the following conditions:

the driver and front-passenger have their seat

belts fastened

and

the vehicle speed is between approximately

4 mph (7 km/h) and 124 mph (200 km/h)

Up to a speed of approximately 44 mph

(70 km/h), Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic

function may react to:

stationary objects in the path of your vehicle,

e.g. stopped or parked vehicles

pedestrians in the path of your vehicle

If there is an increased risk of a collision,

preventive passenger protection measures

(PRE-SAFE

) are triggered (Y page 55).

If the risk of collision with the vehicle in front

remains and you do not brake, take evasive

action or accelerate significantly, the vehicle

may perform automatic emergency braking, up

to the point of full brake application. Automatic

emergency braking is not performed until imme-

diately prior to an imminent accident.

If you apply the brake yourself in a critical sit-

uation or during autonomous braking, braking

assistance is provided according to the situa-

tion. If necessary, this increases

the brak

e pres-

sure up to full brake application.

To avoid a collision, Active Brake Assist with

cross-traffic function calculates the brake force

necessary if:

you approach an obstacle, and

Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic function

has detected a risk of a collision

When driving at a speed

under20 mph(30 km/h): if you depress the

brake pedal, Active Brake Assist with cross-traf-

fic function is activated. The increase in brake

pressure from Active Brake Assist with cross-

traffic function is carried out at the last possible

moment.

When driving at a speed

above20 mph(30 km/h): if you depress the

brake pedal sharply, Active Brake Assist with

cross-traffic function automatically increases

the brake pressure to a degree suited to the

traffic situation.

Active Brake Assist with cross-traffic function

provides braking assistance in hazardous situa-

tions with vehicles in front within a speed range

between 4 mph (7 km/h) and 155 mph

(250 km/h).
