Adaptive

When AdaptiveAdaptive is selected, no warning vibra-

tion occurs if:

R

you have switched on the turn signals. In

this event, the warnings are suppressed for

a certain period of time.

R

a driving safety system intervenes, e.g.

ABS, BAS or ESP

®

.

R

you accelerate hard, e.g. kickdown.

R

you brake hard.

R

you steer actively, e.g. swerve to avoid an

obstacle or change lanes quickly.

R

you cut the corner on a sharp bend.

In order that you are warned only when nec-

essary and in good time if you cross the lane

marking, the system recognizes certain con-

ditions and warns you accordingly.

The warning vibration occurs earlier if:

R

you approach the outer lane marking on a

bend.

R

the road has very wide lanes, e.g. a high-

way.

R

the system recognizes solid lane markings.

The warning vibration occurs later if:

R

the road has narrow lanes.

R

you cut the corner on a bend.

The Active Driving Assistance package con-

sists of DISTRONIC PLUS (Y page 187), Active

Blind Spot Assist (Y page 218) and Active

Lane Keeping Assist (Y page 221).

Active Blind Spot Assist

General notes

Active Blind Spot Assist uses a radar sensor

system, pointed toward the rear of the vehi-

cle, to monitor the area to the sides of the

vehicle which the driver is unable to see. A

warning display in the exterior mirrors draws

your attention to vehicles detected in the

monitored area. If you then switch on the cor-

responding turn signal to change lanes, you

will also receive a visual and audible collision

warning. If a risk of lateral collision is detec-

ted, corrective braking may help you avoid a

collision. Before a course-correcting brake

application, Active Blind Spot Assist evalu-

ates the space in the direction of travel and at

the sides of the vehicle. For this, Active Blind

Spot Assist uses radar sensors which are

pointed in the direction of travel.

Active Blind Spot Assist supports you from a

speed of approximately 20 mph (30 km/h).

Important safety notes

Active Blind Spot Assist is only an aid and is

not a substitute for attentive driving.

G

WARNING

Active Blind Spot Assist does not react to:

R

vehicles overtaken too closely on the side,

placing them in the blind spot area

R

vehicles which approach with a large speed

differential and overtake your vehicle

As a result, Active Blind Spot Assist may nei-

ther give warnings nor intervene in such sit-

uations. There is a risk of an accident.

Always observe the traffic conditions care-

fully, and maintain a safe lateral distance.
