crashes with vehicles, pedestrians and

cyclists directly ahead, when the driver

does not actively take action either by

manual braking or by steering.

Before the active emergency braking

applies, the driver may be warned by the

forward collision warning.

The feature uses various inputs (e.g.

camera sensor, brake pressure, vehicle

speed) to calculate the probability of a

frontal collision.

Driver assistance systems are

developed to support the driver and not

to replace the driver's attention.

The driver accepts full responsibility

when driving the vehicle.

When using driver assistance systems,

always take care regarding the current

traffic situation.

Warning

This system is not intended to replace

the driver's responsibility for driving the

vehicle and looking ahead. It warns

the driver if the vehicle is at risk of

a collision with the preceding vehicle,

a pedestrian or a cyclist. Just before

the imminent collision, it reduces the

vehicle's speed to avoid a collision or

to limit its severity.

The system may also react on animals.

However, animals smaller than 0.5 m

or objects on the road may not be

detected.

Note

To comply with the European

general safety regulations, some driver

assistance systems can only be

deactivated on the Info Display until

the next time the ignition is reactivated.

The system is automatically activated by

default every time the engine is started.

After a sudden lane change, the system

needs a certain time to detect the next

preceding vehicle.

The driver must always be ready to

take action and apply the brakes and

steer to avoid collisions.

surroundings permit.

Activation/Deactivation

Depending on version, the system is

automatically active by default every time

the engine is started, even if it was

deactivated during the last ignition cycle.

Automatic braking

Just before the imminent collision, this

function automatically applies limited

braking to reduce the impact speed of the

collision or prohibit a crash.

Warning

Do not rely on the system to brake the

vehicle. Active emergency braking will

not brake automatically outside of its

operating speed range.

If active emergency braking is applied,

flashes on the cluster.

If active emergency braking is finished,

flashes for a few seconds. During this

time, active emergency braking cannot

be applied if there is a risk of a further

collision.

Below a speed of 30 mph, automatic

braking may slow down the vehicle to

a complete stop. If the speed exceeds

this limit, automatic braking may reduce

the speed by a maximum of 30 mph.

However, the driver must apply the brake

to come to a complete stop.

Automatic transmission: If the vehicle

comes to a complete stop, autmatic

braking is maintained for a certain time.

Keep the brake pedal depressed to

prevent the vehicle from starting off

again.

Cruise control will be deactivated when

an automatic braking occurs. In some

cases, the driver may wish to override

the automatic braking provided by the

illuminates if deactivated, and a

message is shown on the cluster.

Functionality

Depending on the vehicle configuration

and the detected objects, there are

several operational speed ranges.

Active emergency braking operates from

5 mph to 50 mph when a pedestrian or a

cyclist has been detected.

Emergency brake assist will

automatically disengage when the brake

pedal is released.

Operation conditions

Active emergency braking only works

when:

Active emergency braking operates from

5 mph to 85 mph, when a moving or

stationary vehicle has been detected.

The system includes:

● the brake system is operational

● Electronic Stability Control and Anti-

● forward collision warning

● emergency brake assist

● automatic braking

Slip Regulator (ASR) are activated

● the seat belt of the driver seat and

depending on version of the front

passenger seat is fastened

The driver must not overload neither the

load compartment nor the roof of the

vehicle.

If a sensor is covered, a message

is displayed indicating that the camera

sensors have to be cleaned.

If the system is temporarily affected and

no driver action is required, no message

is displayed.

Complete attention is always required

while driving, and be ready to take action

to avoid crashes.

We recommend to deactivate the system

in the vehicle personalization in the

following cases:

● constant speed on unwinding roads

Active emergency braking is

automatically deactivated in the following

cases:

● winding or hilly roads

● system initialization process after

battery disconnection

● dazzling light, e.g. caused by the

sun or artificial illumination is shining

directly into the camera lens

● a spare wheel with smaller diameter is

detected

● adverse environmental conditions, e.g.

rain, fog, or snow

● a fault with the brake pedal switch

or with the left or right brake light is

detected

● vehicle ahead creating road spray

● a fault in the active emergency braking

system, in the electronic or in the brake

system is detected

After an impact or when damages are

visible have the vehicle checked by a

workshop.

The system performance may be

affected by:

● a severe crash, e.g., with airbag

deployment was detected

● when towing a trailer or caravan

● Electronic Stability Control and Anti-

Slip Regulator (ASR) in progress

● when carrying long objects on roof bars

System limitations

or a roof rack

The system performance may be

degraded or not available in the following

cases:

● vehicle battery voltage out of range

● wet road reflecting lights

● close vehicles ahead

● when the vehicle is being towed

● when performing any maintenance with

● front camera covered with snow, ice,

slush, mud or dirt

ignition on

● when the vehicle is fitted with snow

chains

● tractors, muddy vehicles or vehicles

● windscreen damaged or smeared, with

blurred view or covered with foreign

items, e.g. stickers

with a trailer

● when a spare wheel is fitted that is

smaller than the other wheels

● banked roads

● front camera out of its regular position

● poor lighting conditions

● sudden lighting changes

● vehicle modifications, e.g. tires

● vehicle overloaded

● before using an automatic car wash

● automatic braking not available, e.g.

● before placing the vehicle on a rolling
