The concept
The system issues a two-phase warning of a danger of collision at speeds above approx.
10 mph/15 km/h. The time of these warnings may vary depending on the current driving situation.
The collision warning is available even if cruise control has been deactivated.
It responds to stationary or moving objects that are within the detection range of the radar system.
When the vehicle is intentionally brought into contact with a vehicle, the collision warning is delayed to avoid false warnings.

Brakes require an initial break-in period of approx.
300 miles/500 km to achieve optimized

Deactivating DSC: DSC OFF
When DSC is deactivated, driving stability is reduced
during acceleration and when driving in
bends.
To increase vehicle stability, activate DSC again
as soon as possible.
