Mercedes-Benz E-Cab 2013 Owners Manual - Manual (Page 71)

Always pay particular attention to the traffic
situation and be ready to brake, especially if
PRE-SAFE
® Brake warns you. Terminate the
intervention in a non-critical driving situation.
In particular, the detection of obstacles can
be impaired if there is:
R
dirt on the sensors or anything else
covering the sensors
R
snow or heavy rain
R interference by other radar sources
R the possibility of strong radar reflections,
for example in parking garages
R
a narrow vehicle traveling in front, e.g. a
motorbike
R a vehicle traveling in front on a different line
relative to the center of your vehicle
G WARNING
PRE-SAFE ® Brake does not react:
R to people or animals
R to oncoming vehicles
R to crossing traffic
R
when cornering
As a result, PRE-SAFE ® Brake may neither
give warnings nor intervene in all critical
situations. There is a risk of an accident.
Always pay careful attention to the traffic
situation and be ready to brake.
In order to maintain the appropriate distance
to the vehicle in front and thus prevent a
collision, you must apply the brakes yourself.
X To activate/deactivate: activate or
deactivate PRE-SAFE
® Brake in the on-
board computer ( Y page 222).
When PRE-SAFE ® Brake is activated, the
Ä symbol appears in the multifunction
display, as long as the HOLD function is
deactivated (
Y page 189). On vehicles with
the Active Parking Assist driving system,
the Ä symbol is displayed when position
P is engaged or you are driving faster than
22 mph (35 km/h).
For PRE-SAFE ® Brake to assist you when
driving, the radar sensor system must be
switched on (
Y page 226) and be
operational.
Following damage to the front end of the
vehicle, have the configuration and operation
of the radar sensors checked at a qualified
specialist workshop. This also applies to
collisions at low speeds where there is no
visible damage to the front of the vehicle.
