Controls
Thus a warning might not be issued or be is‐
sued late.
The function is subdivided into the following
systems:
E. g. the following situations may not be de‐
tected:
▷
During daytime: Pedestrian warning with
city braking function, refer to page 123
▷
Slow moving vehicles when you approach
them at high speed.
▷
At night: Night vision, refer to page 125
▷
Vehicles that suddenly swerve in front of
you, or sharply decelerating vehicles.

▷
▷
Vehicles with an unusual rear appearance.
Two-wheeled vehicles ahead of you.
The concept
The ystem can help prevent accidents with pe‐
destrians.
Functional limitations
The system may not be fully functional in the
following situations:
The system issues a warning in the city driving
speed area if there is imminent danger of a col‐
lision with pedestrians and includes a braking
function.
▷
In heavy fog, rain, sprayed water or snow‐
fall.
▷
▷
In tight curves.
The camera in the area of the rearview mirror
controls the system.
If the driving stability control systems are
limited or deactivated, e.g., DSC OFF.
▷
If, depending on the vehicle equipment
version, the field of view of the camera in
the mirror or the radar sensor is dirty or ob‐
scured.
General information
In daylight the system warns of possible colli‐
sions with pedestrians at speeds from about
6 mph/10 km/h to about 35 mph/60 km/h
shortly before a collision the system supports
you with a braking intervention.
▷
▷
▷
Up to 10 seconds after the start of the en‐
gine, via the Start/Stop knob.
During calibration of the camera immedi‐
ately after vehicle shipment.
Under those circumstances it reacts to people
who are within the detection range of the sys‐
tem.
If there is constant blinding effects be‐
cause of oncoming light, e. g., from the sun
low in the sky.
Detection range
Warning sensitivity
The more sensitive the warning settings are,
e.g. the warning time, the more warnings are
displayed. However, there may also be an ex‐
cess of false warnings.
Pedestrian warning
Depending on how the vehicle is equipped, the
function warns of an imminent collision with
pedestrians during daytime or nighttime.
The detection area in front of the vehicle is div‐
ided into two areas.
