Active Blind Spot Detection
with active return
Principle
The Lane Change Warning system with ac-
tive return detects vehicles in your blind
spot or vehicles approaching from behind in
the adjacent lane.
An automatic steering intervention helps to
keep the vehicle in its lane.
A possible risk of collision is indicated by
various warnings, e.g., signaled by warning
light on the exterior mirror.
The sensors monitor the area behind and
next to the vehicle.
The system indicates whether there are ve-
hicles in your blind spot, arrow 1, or ap-
proaching from behind in an adjacent lane,
arrow 2. The warning light in the exterior
mirror illuminates dimly.
The system will warn in the previously
named situations prior to a lane change. The
warning light on the exterior mirror flashes
and the steering wheel vibrates at the set
intensity.
Active Blind Spot Detection can be acti-
vated, deactivated, and configured on the
Interaction Unit.
Safety information
Follow the safety information in the "For-
ward Collision Mitigation" chapter.
Speed range
Active Blind Spot Detection is activated
when your vehicle exceeds a given mini-
mum speed. The minimum speed is country-
specific and displayed in the Active Blind
Spot Detection menu.
When turning at a speed of up to approx.
12 mph/20 km/h, the steering wheel will
not vibrate.
This system is temporarily deacti-
vated at speeds greater than approx.
155 mph/250 km/h.
If the vehicle speed falls below approx.
155 mph/250 km/h, the system is reacti-
vated.
