NOTE

Cruise Control cannot be enabled at speeds below 30 km/h.

• Hold down the button and release it at

the required speed.

A temporary increase in speed with the accel- erator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not affect the cruise control setting - the car returns to the set speed when the accelerator pedal is released.

NOTE

If any of the Cruise Control buttons are held depressed for several minutes then it is blocked and deactivated. To be able to reactivate Cruise Control, the car must be stopped and the engine restarted.

07 Driver support

Adaptive cruise control - ACC* The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain an even speed and a safe distance from the vehi- cle ahead.

The adaptive cruise control provides a more relaxing driving experience on long journeys on motorways and long straight main roads in smooth traffic flows. The driver sets the desired speed (p. 191) and time interval (p. 192) to the car in front. When the radar detector detects a slower vehicle in front of the car, the speed is auto- matically adapted to that. When the road is clear again the car returns to the selected speed. If the adaptive cruise control is switched off or set to standby mode (p. 193) and the car comes too close to a vehicle in front, then the driver is warned instead by the Distance Warning (p. 202) function about the short distance.

07

WARNING

The driver must always be observant with regard to the traffic conditions and inter- vene when the adaptive cruise control is not maintaining a suitable speed or suita- ble distance. The adaptive cruise control cannot handle all traffic, weather and road conditions. Read all the sections about the adaptive cruise control in the owner's manual in order to learn about its limitations, of which the driver should be aware before it is used. The driver always bears responsibility for maintaining the correct distance and speed, even when the adaptive cruise con- trol is being used.

IMPORTANT

Maintenance of adaptive cruise control components must only be performed at a workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.

Automatic gearbox Cars with automatic gearbox have enhanced functionality with the adaptive cruise control's Queue Assist (p. 195).

Adaptive cruise control* - function The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain an even speed and a safe distance from the vehi- cle ahead. It consists of a cruise control sys- tem and a coordinated spacing system.

Function overview

Radar sensor (p. 197)

WARNING

Adaptive cruise control is not a collision avoidance system. The driver must inter- vene if the system does not detect a vehi- cle in front. The adaptive cruise control does not brake for humans or animals, and not for small vehicles such as bicycles and motorcy- cles. Nor for oncoming, slow or stationary vehicles and objects. Do not use the adaptive cruise control, for example, in city traffic, in dense traffic, at junctions, on slippery surfaces, with a lot of water or slush on the road, in heavy rain/snow, in poor visibility, on winding roads or on slip roads.

Distance to the vehicle ahead (p. 192) is measured primarily by a radar sensor (p. 197). Cruise control regulates the speed with acceleration and braking. It is normal for the brakes to emit a low sound when they are being used by the adaptive cruise control.

WARNING

The brake pedal moves when Cruise Con- trol brakes. Do not rest your foot beneath the brake pedal as it may become trapped.

07 Driver support

The adaptive cruise control aims to follow the vehicle ahead in the same lane at a time inter- val set by the driver. If the radar sensor can- not see any vehicle in front then the car will instead maintain the cruise control's set speed. This also happens if the speed of the vehicle in front exceeds the cruise control's set speed. The adaptive cruise control aims to control the speed in a smooth way. In situations that demand sudden braking the driver must brake himself/herself. This applies with large differences in speed, or if the vehicle in front brakes heavily. Due to limitations in the radar sensor (p. 197) braking may come unexpect- edly or not at all. The adaptive cruise control can be activated to follow another vehicle at speeds from 30 km/h7 up to 200 km/h. If the speed falls below 30 km/h or if the engine speed becomes too low, the cruise control is set in standby mode (p. 193) at which automatic braking ceases - the driver must then take over himself/herself to maintain a safe dis- tance to the vehicle ahead.

Warning lamp - braking by driver required Adaptive cruise control has a braking capacity that is equivalent to more than 40% of the car's braking capacity.

6 NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may differ depending on car model. 7 Queue Assistant (p. 195) (in cars with automatic gearbox) can operate in the range of 0-200 km/h.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.

07

}} 189

07 Driver support || If the car needs to be braked more heavily than cruise control capacity and the driver does not brake, then cruise control uses the warning lamp and warning sound from the Collision warning system (p. 212) in order to alert the driver that immediate intervention is required.

NOTE

The warning lamp may be difficult to see in strong sunlight or when wearing sun- glasses.

WARNING

Cruise Control warns only of vehicles which the radar sensor has detected. Hence the warning may not be given, or it may be given with a certain delay. Do not wait for a warning without braking when so required.

07

Steep roads and/or heavy load Bear in mind that the adaptive cruise control is primarily intended for use when driving on level road surfaces. It may have difficulty in keeping the correct distance from the vehicle ahead when driving on steep downhill slopes, with a heavy load or with a trailer - in which case, be extra attentive and ready to slow down.

At the same time a speed range is marked:

• the higher speed with the GREEN mark-

ing (6) is the pre-programmed speed

• the lower speed is the speed of the car in

front.

Changing the speed To change the stored speed: • Adjust with short presses on

or

every press gives +/- 5 km/h. The last presses made are stored in the memory. If speed is increased using the accelera- tor pedal prior to pressing the but- ton, then it is the car's current speed when the button is pressed that is stored in the cruise control.

NOTE

If any of the Cruise Control buttons are held depressed for several minutes then it is blocked and deactivated. To be able to reactivate Cruise Control, the car must be stopped and the engine restarted. In certain situations, cruise control cannot be activated. In this case, the combined instrument panel (p. 200) shows Cruise control Unavailable.

Adaptive cruise control* - set time interval The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain an even speed and a safe distance from the vehi- cle ahead.

Different time intervals to the vehicle in front can be selected and shown in the combined instrument panel as 1-5 horizontal lines - the more lines the longer the time interval. One line corre-

sponds to approximately 1 second to the vehicle in front, 5 lines approximately 3 seconds. To set/change the time distance: • Turn the thumbwheel on the steering

wheel keypad (p. 190) (or use the buttons for cars without Speed limiter). At low speed, when the distances are short, the adaptive cruise control increases the time interval slightly. The adaptive cruise control allows the time interval to vary noticeably in certain situations in order to allow the car to follow the vehicle in front smoothly and comfortably. Note that a short time interval only allows the driver a short time to react and take action if any unforeseen traffic problem should arise.

The same symbol is also shown when Dis- tance Warning (p. 202) function is activated.

NOTE

Only use the time intervals permitted by local traffic regulations. If Cruise Control does not appear to react when activated, this may be because the time distance to the car in front is prevent- ing an increase in speed. The higher the speed the longer the calcu- lated distance in metres for a given time interval.

Adaptive cruise control* - temporary deactivation, and standby mode The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain an even speed and a safe distance from the vehi- cle ahead. The cruise control can be tempo- rarily deactivated and set in standby mode.

Temporary deactivation - standby mode with Speed limiter To temporarily disengage the adaptive cruise control and set it in standby mode: • Press the steering wheel button

This symbol and the stored speed's marking then change colour from GREEN to WHITE.

Temporary deactivation - standby mode without Speed limiter To temporarily disengage the adaptive cruise control and set it in standby mode: • Press the steering wheel button Standby mode due to driver intervention Cruise control is temporarily disengaged and set in standby mode if: • the foot brake is used • the clutch pedal is depressed for longer

than 1 minute9

07 Driver support

• the gear selector is moved to N position

(automatic gearbox)

• the driver maintains a speed higher than the set speed for longer than 1 minute.

The driver must then regulate the speed. A temporary increase in speed with the accel- erator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not affect the cruise control setting - the car returns to the last stored speed when the accelerator pedal is released.

Automatic standby mode The adaptive cruise control is dependent on other systems, e.g. DSTC (Stability and trac- tion control system) (p. 175). If any of these systems stop working then cruise control is automatically deactivated. In the event of automatic deactivation a signal will sound and the message Cruise control Cancelled is shown in the combined instru- ment panel. The driver must then intervene and adapt the speed and distance to the vehicle ahead. An automatic deactivation can be due to: • the driver opens the door • the driver takes off his seatbelt • engine speed is too low/high • speed has fallen below 30 km/h10

Adaptive cruise control* - overtaking another vehicle The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain an even speed and a safe distance from the vehi- cle ahead.

When the car is following another vehicle and the driver indicates an impending overtaking manoeuvre with the direction indicator11, the adaptive cruise control helps to briefly accel- erate the car towards the vehicle in front. This function is active at speeds above 70 km/h.

WARNING

Be aware that this function can be acti- vated in more situations other than during overtaking, e.g. when a direction indicator is used to indicate a change of lane or exit to another road - the car will then acceler- ate briefly.

Adaptive Cruise Control* - Queue Assist The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain an even speed and a safe distance from the vehi- cle ahead. Queue Assist also provides the Adaptive Cruise Control with enhanced func- tionality at speeds below 30 km/h..

In cars with automatic gearbox the adaptive cruise control is supplemented with the Queue Assist function (also referred to as "Queue Assist"). Queue Assistant has the following functions: • Extended speed range - also below

30 km/h and when stationary

• Change of target • Automatic braking ceases when station-

ary

• Automatic activation parking brake. Note that the lowest programmable speed for the adaptive cruise control is 30 km/h - even though it is capable of following another vehi- cle down to a standstill, a lower speed can- not be selected.

07 Driver support

Extended speed range

NOTE

NOTE

In order to activate the cruise control the driver's door must be closed and the driver must be wearing the seatbelt.

With an automatic gearbox, the adaptive cruise control can follow another vehicle within the range 0-200 km/h.

NOTE

Activation of the cruise control below 30 km/h requires a vehicle in front within a reasonable distance.

Queue Assist can hold the car stationary for a maximum of 4 minutes - then the parking brake is applied and Cruise Con- trol is disengaged. • The driver has to release the parking brake before the cruise control can be reactivated.

Change of target

For shorter stops in connection with inching in slow traffic or at traffic lights driving is automatically resumed if the stops do not exceed about 3 seconds - if it takes longer before the car in front starts moving again then the Adaptive cruise control is set in standby mode with automatic braking. The driver must then reactivate it in one of the fol- lowing ways: • Press the steering wheel button or • Depress the accelerator pedal. > The cruise control will then resume fol-

lowing the vehicle in front.

If the target vehicle in front suddenly turns then there may be stationary traffic in front. When the adaptive cruise control is following another vehicle at speeds below 30 km/h and changes target from a moving to a stationary vehicle, the cruise control will slow down for the stationary vehicle.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.

07 Driver support ||

WARNING

When the cruise control is following another vehicle at speeds in excess of 30 km/h and the target is changed from a moving vehicle to a stationary vehicle, the cruise control will ignore the stationary vehicle and instead select the stored speed. • The driver must intervene him/herself

and brake.

Automatic standby mode with change of target The adaptive cruise control is disengaged and set in standby mode: • when the speed is below 5 km/h and

cruise control is not sure whether the tar- get object is a stationary vehicle or some other object, e.g. a speed bump.

• when the speed is below 5 km/h and the

vehicle in front turns off so the cruise control no longer has a vehicle to follow.

Termination of automatic braking at a standstill In certain situations, Queue Assist stops automatic braking at a standstill. This means that the brakes are released and the car may start to roll - the driver must therefore inter- vene and brake the car himself/herself in order to maintain its position.

07

Queue Assist releases the foot brake and sets the adaptive cruise control in standby mode in the following situations: • the driver puts his/her foot on the brake

pedal

• the parking brake is applied • the gear selector is moved to P, N or R

position

• the driver sets the cruise control in

standby mode.

Automatic activation parking brake In certain situations Queue Assist applies the parking brake in order to keep the car remain- ing stationary. This takes place if: • the driver opens the door or takes off

his/her seatbelt

• DSTC is changed from Normal to Sport

mode

• Queue Assist has held the car stationary

for more than 4 minutes • the engine is switched off • the brakes have overheated. Related information • Adaptive cruise control - ACC* (p. 188) • Adaptive cruise control* - overview (p.

07 Driver support

Radar sensor - limitations A radar sensor (p. 197) has certain limitations, due to its limited field of vision for example.

The capacity of the radar sensor to detect vehicles in front is reduced significantly: • if the radar sensor becomes blocked and cannot detect other vehicles e.g. in heavy rain or slush, or if other objects have col- lected in front of the radar sensor.

NOTE

Keep the area in front of the radar sensor clean - see subheading "Maintenance" (p. 217).

• if the speed of vehicles in front is signifi-

cantly different from your own speed.

Field of vision The radar sensor has a limited field of vision. In some situations another vehicle is not detected, or the detection is made later than expected.

WARNING

WARNING

The driver must always be observant with regard to the traffic conditions and inter- vene when the adaptive cruise control is not maintaining a suitable speed or suita- ble distance. The adaptive cruise control cannot handle all traffic, weather and road conditions. Read all the sections about the adaptive cruise control in the owner's manual in order to learn about its limitations, of which the driver should be aware before it is used. The driver always bears responsibility for maintaining the correct distance and speed, even when the adaptive cruise con- trol is being used.

WARNING

Accessories or other objects such as auxil- iary lamps must not be fitted in front of the grille.

Adaptive cruise control is not a collision avoidance system. The driver must inter- vene if the system does not detect a vehi- cle in front. The adaptive cruise control does not brake for humans or animals, and not for small vehicles such as bicycles and motorcy- cles. Nor for oncoming, slow or stationary vehicles and objects. Do not use the adaptive cruise control, for example, in city traffic, in dense traffic, at junctions, on slippery surfaces, with a lot of water or slush on the road, in heavy rain/snow, in poor visibility, on winding roads or on slip roads.

IMPORTANT

In the event of visible damage to the car's grille, or if you suspect that the radar sen- sor may be damaged: • Contact a workshop - an authorised

Volvo workshop is recommended.

The function may completely or partially disappear - or malfunction - if the grille, the radar sensor or its bracket is damaged or has loosened.

Sometimes the radar sensor is late at detecting vehicles at close distances, e.g. a vehicle that drives in between the car and vehicles in front. Small vehicles, such as motorcycles, or vehicles not driving in the centre of the lane can remain undetected. In bends the radar sensor may detect the wrong vehicle or lose a detected vehicle from view.

Adaptive cruise control* - fault tracing and action The adaptive cruise control (p. 188) (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain an even speed and a safe distance from the vehicle ahead.

If the combined instrument panel shows the message Radar blocked See manual this

means that the radar signals from the radar sensor (p. 197) are blocked and that vehicles in front of the car cannot be detected. In turn this means that - apart from Adaptive Cruise Control - Distance Warning (p. 202) and Collision Warning (p. 212) with Auto Brake are not operating either.

Distance Warning* - limitations Distance Warning (Distance Alert) is a function that informs the driver about the distance to vehicles in front. The function uses the same radar sensor as the Adaptive cruise control (p. 188) and Collision warning with auto brake (p. 212), has some limitations.

NOTE

Strong sunlight, reflections or strong varia- tions in light intensity, as well as wearing sunglasses, could mean that the warning light in the windscreen cannot be seen. Poor weather or winding roads could affect the radar sensor's capacity to detect vehicles in front. The size of other vehicles could also affect detection capacity, e.g. motorcycles. This could mean that the warning lamp illumi- nates at a shorter distance than the setting or that the warning is temporarily absent. Extremely high speeds can also cause the lamp to illuminate at a shorter distance than that set due to limitations in sensor range.

City Safety™ City Safety™ is a function for helping the driver to avoid a collision when driving in queues, amongst other things, when changes in the traffic ahead, combined with a lapse in attention, could lead to an incident.

The City Safety™ function is active at speeds under 50 km/h and it helps the driver by auto- matically braking the car in the event of immi- nent risk of collision with vehicles in front, should the driver not react in time by braking and/or steering away. City Safety™ is activated in situations where the driver should have started braking earlier, which is why it cannot help the driver in every situation. City Safety™ is designed to be activated as late as possible in order to avoid unnecessary intervention. City Safety™ must not be used as an excuse for the driver to change his/her driving style. If the driver solely relies on City Safety™ to do the braking, there will be a collision sooner or later. The driver or passengers normally only notice City Safety™ if a situation arises where the car is extremely close to being in a collision. If the car is also equipped with Collision Warning with Auto Brake (p. 212)* these two systems complement each other.

IMPORTANT

Maintenance and replacement of City Safety™ components must only be per- formed by a workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.

WARNING

City Safety™ does not engage in all driv- ing situations or traffic, weather or road conditions. City Safety™ does not react to vehicles driving in a different direction from the car, to small vehicles and motorcycles or to humans and animals. City Safety™ can prevent collision at a speed difference of less than 15 km/h - at a higher speed difference, it is only possi- ble to reduce collision speed. In order to obtain full brake function, the driver must depress the brake pedal. Never wait for City Safety™ to engage. The driver always bears responsibility for maintaining the proper distance and speed.

07 Driver support ||

Laser sensor transmitter and receiver window13. If the speed difference is 4-15 km/h in relation to the vehicle in front then City Safety™ can completely prevent a collision. City Safety™ activates a short, sharp braking and stops the car in normal circumstances, just behind the vehicle in front. For most dri- vers this is well outside normal driving style and may be experienced as being uncomfort- able. If the difference in speed between the vehi- cles is greater than 15 km/h then City Safety™ may not prevent the collision on its own. To obtain full brake force, the driver must depress the brake pedal. This could then make it possible to prevent a collision, even at speed differences above 15 km/h.

When the function is activated and brakes, the combined instrument panel shows a text message to the effect that the function is/has been active.

NOTE

When City Safety™ brakes, the brake lights come on.

City Safety™ - operation City Safety™ is a function for helping the driver to avoid a collision when driving in queues, amongst other things, when changes in the traffic ahead, combined with a lapse in attention, could lead to an incident.

On and Off

NOTE

The City Safety™ function is always switched on after the engine has been started via key position I and II (p. 70).

In certain situations, it may advisable to disa- ble City Safety™, e.g. where leafy branches could sweep over the bonnet and/or wind- screen. After starting the engine City Safety™ can be deactivated as follows: The function can be activated/deactivated in the menu system MY CAR. For a description of the menu system, see MY CAR (p. 103). However, the function will be enabled the next time the engine is started, regardless of whether the system was enabled or disabled when the engine was switched off.

City Safety™ - limitations The sensor in City Safety™ is designed to detect cars and other large vehicles in front of the car irrespective of whether it is day or night. However, the function has a number of limitations.

However, the sensor has limitations and has poorer functionality - or none at all - in e.g. heavy snowfall or rain, dense fog, dust storms or white-out situations. Mist, dirt, ice or snow on the windscreen may disrupt the function. Low-hanging objects, e.g. a flag/pennant for projecting load, or accessories such as auxili- ary lamps and bull bars that are higher than the bonnet limit the function. The laser beam from the sensor in City Safety™ measures how the light is reflected. The sensor cannot detect objects with low reflection capacity. The rear sections of the vehicle generally reflect the light sufficiently thanks to the number plate and rear light reflectors. On slippery road surfaces the braking dis- tance is extended, which may reduce the capacity of City Safety™ to avoid a collision. In such situations the ABS and DSTC sys- tems will provide best possible braking force with maintained stability. When your own car is reversing, City Safety™ is temporarily deactivated.

07 Driver support

City Safety™ is not activated at low speeds - under 4 km/h, which is why the system does not intervene in situations where a vehicle in front is being approached very slowly, e.g. when parking. Driver commands are always prioritised, which is why City Safety™ does not intervene in situations where the driver is steering or accelerating in a clear manner, even if a colli- sion is unavoidable. When City Safety™ has prevented a collision with a stationary object the car remains sta- tionary for a maximum of 1.5 seconds. If the car is braked for a vehicle in front that is mov- ing, then speed is reduced to the same speed as that maintained by the vehicle in front. On a car with manual gearbox the engine stops when City Safety™ has stopped the car, unless the driver manages to depress the clutch pedal beforehand.

NOTE

• Keep the windscreen surface in front of the laser sensor free from ice, snow and dirt (see the illustration for sensor location (p. 205)).

• Do not affix or mount anything on the windscreen in front of the laser sensor • Remove ice and snow from the bonnet

- snow and ice must not exceed a height of 5 cm.

This means in turn that City Safety™ is not operational. The Windscreen Sensors blocked message is not shown for all situations in which the laser sensor is blocked. The driver must therefore be diligent about keeping the wind- screen and area in front of the laser sensor clean. The following table presents possible causes for the message being shown, along with suggestions for appropriate action.

IMPORTANT

If there are cracks, scratches or stone chips in the windscreen in front of either of the laser sensor's "windows" and they cover a surface of approx. 0.5 x 3.0 mm (or larger), then a workshop must be con- tacted for replacement of the windscreen (see the illustration for sensor location (p. 205)) - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended. Failure to take action may result in reduced performance for City Safety™. To avoid the risk of failed, deficient or reduced operation for City Safety™, the following also applies: • Volvo recommends that you do not

repair cracks, scratches or stone chips in the area in front of the laser sensor - instead, the whole windscreen should be replaced.

• Before replacing a windscreen, con- tact an authorised Volvo workshop to verify that the correct windscreen is ordered and fitted.

• The same type or Volvo-approved

windscreen wipers must be fitted dur- ing replacement.

City Safety™ - laser sensor The City Safety™ function includes a sensor which transmits laser light (see illustration (p. 205) for sensor location). Contact a qualified workshop in the event of a fault or if the laser sensor needs servicing - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended. It is absolutely essential to follow the prescribed instructions when handling the laser sensor.

The following two labels relate to the laser sensor:

If any of these instructions are not followed then there is a risk of eye injury! • Never look into the laser sensor (which

emits spreading invisible laser radia- tion) at a distance of 100 mm or closer with magnifying optics such as a mag- nifying glass, microscope, lens or simi- lar optical instruments.

• Testing, repair, removal, adjustment and/or replacement of the laser sen- sor's spare parts must only be carried out by a qualified workshop - we rec- ommend an authorised Volvo work- shop.

• To avoid exposure to harmful radia- tion, do not carry out any readjust- ments or maintenance other than those specified here.

• The repairer must follow specially

drawn up workshop information for the laser sensor.

• Do not remove the laser sensor (this

includes removing the lenses). A removed laser sensor does not fulfil laser class 3B as per standard IEC 60825-1. Laser class 3B is not eye- safe and therefore entails a risk of injury.

• The laser sensor's connector must be

Collision warning system* "Collision Warning with Auto Brake and Cyclist and Pedestrian Detection" is an aid to assist the driver when there is a risk of collid- ing with a pedestrian, bicycle or vehicle in front that are stationary or moving in the same direction.

Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedes- trian Detection is activated in situations where the driver should have started braking earlier, which is why it cannot help the driver in every situation. Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedes- trian Detection is designed to be activated as late as possible in order to avoid unnecessary intervention. Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedes- trian Detection may prevent a collision or reduce the collision speed. Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedes- trian Detection must not be used as an excuse for the driver to change his/her driving style. If the driver solely relies on Collision Warning with Auto Brake to do the braking, there might be a risk of a collision sooner or later.

Two system levels The Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedestrian Detection function is available in

two variants, depending on how the car is equipped: Level 1
The driver is merely warned14 of occurring obstacles by means of visual and acoustic signals - no automatic braking intervenes, the driver must himself brake. Level 2
The driver is warned of occurring obstacles by means of visual and acoustic signals - the car is braked automatically if the driver him- self does not act within a reasonable time.

IMPORTANT

Maintenance of components included in Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedestrian Detection must only be carried out in a workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.

3 - Auto Brake16
The automatic brake function is activated last. If in this situation the driver has not yet started to take evasive action and the risk of collision is imminent then the automatic brak- ing function is deployed - this takes place irrespective of whether or not the driver brakes. Braking then takes place with full brake force in order to reduce collision speed, or with limited brake force if it is sufficient to avoid a collision. For cyclists, the warning and full brake intervention may come very late or simultaneously.

Audio-visual warning signal in the event of a collision risk. Radar sensor16

Camera sensor

Collision Warning with Auto Brake executes three steps in the following order: 1. Collision warning 2. Brake support16

3. Auto Brake16
The collision warning system and City Safety™ (p. 205) complement each other.

1 - Collision warning The driver is first warned of a potentially imminent collision. The collision warning system detects pedes- trians, stationary vehicles as well as vehicles driving in the same direction in front of the car. If there is a risk of collision with a pedestrian or a vehicle then the driver's attention is attracted with a flashing red warning signal (1) and an acoustic signal.

2 - Brake support16
If the risk of collision has increased further after the collision warning then the brake sup- port is activated. This means that the brake system is prepared for rapid braking by applying the brakes lightly, which may feel like a slight jolt. If the brake pedal is depressed sufficiently quickly then full brake function is imple- mented. Brake support also reinforces the driver's braking if the system considers that the brak- ing is not sufficient to avoid a collision.

WARNING

The collision warning system does not engage in all driving situations or traffic, weather or road conditions. The collision warning system does not react to vehicles or cyclists driving in another direction to the car or to animals. Warning only activated in the event of a high risk for collision. This section "Func- tion" and the section "Limitations" inform about limitations that the driver must be aware of before using the Collision Warn- ing system with Auto Brake. Warnings and brake interventions for pedestrians and cyclists are deactivated at a vehicle speed exceeding 80 km/h. Warnings and brake interventions for pedestrians and cyclists do not work in darkness and tunnels - not even when streetlights are lit. The auto-brake function can prevent a col- lision or reduce collision speed. To ensure full brake performance, the driver should always depress the brake pedal - even when the car auto-brakes. Never wait for a collision warning. The driver is always responsible that the cor- rect distance and speed are maintained - even when the collision warning system with auto-brake is used.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.

If large parts of the cyclist's body or bicycle are not visible to the function's camera then the system cannot detect a cyclist.

The function can only "see" cyclists from behind, who are travelling in the same direction. • For the function to be able to detect a

cyclist, he/she must be an adult and rid- ing a "senior bicycle".

• The bicycle must be equipped with a

highly visible and approved17 rearward- facing red reflector, fitted at least 70 cm above the roadway.

• The function can only detect cyclists

directly from behind and who are travel- ling in the same direction - not at an angle from behind, not from the side.

• Cyclists travelling on the left or right-hand edge of the car's imagined/extended side lines may be detected late or not at all.

• The function's capacity to detect cyclists at dusk and dawn is limited - just like the human eye.

• The function's capacity to detect cyclists is deactivated when driving in darkness and tunnels - even when streetlights are lit.

• For optimum bicycle detection, the City Safety™ function must be activated, City Safety™ (p. 205).

WARNING

Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Cyclist Detection is a means of assistance. The function cannot detect: • all cyclists in all situations and does

not see partially obscured cyclists, for example.

• cyclists in clothing that obscures the

contours of the body or who are approaching from the side.

• bicycles that have no rearward-facing

red reflector.

• bicycles loaded with large objects. The driver is always responsible that the vehicle is driven properly and with a safety distance adapted to the speed.
