•
The driver support system only issues a
warning for vehicles detected by its radar
unit – thus, a warning may come after a
delay or not at all. Never wait for a warning.
Apply the brakes when necessary.
At certain speeds, vehicles with automatic
transmissions and the driver support func-
tions Adaptive Cruise Control* and Pilot
Assist* can switch target vehicles.

Switching target vehicles
If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may
be stationary traffic ahead.
When driver support is actively following
another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h
(20 mph) and switches targets from a moving
vehicle to a stationary vehicle, driver support
will brake for the stationary vehicle.
Collision warning symbol on the windshield.
In vehicles equipped with a head-up display*,
a flashing warning symbol will be displayed on
the windshield.
NOTE
Visual warnings on the windshield may be
difficult to notice in cases of strong sun-
light, reflections, extreme light contrasts,
or if the driver is wearing sunglasses or is
not looking straight ahead.
