The�Daytime�Pedestrian�Protection�function�in�the�G15�is�a�component�part�of�Active Driving�Assistant
(SA 5AS)�and�is�effected�with�the�aid�of�the�KAFAS�Mid�camera.

For�the�first�time,�as�part�of�the�Daytime�Pedestrian�Protection�function,�the�driver�also�receives�a
warning�of�cyclists.�Just�as�with�the�pedestrian�warning,�only�an�acute�warning�is�issued�in�a�speed
range�of�approximately�5-65 km/h�with�the�cyclist�warning.�If�the�acute�warning�is�issued,�an�automatic
brake�intervention�through�to�maximum�deceleration�is�initiated.

When�an�acute�warning�is�issued,�the�same�symbol�is�used�for�both�the�pedestrian�warning�and�for�the
cyclist�warning�in�the�instrument�cluster�(KOMBI)�and,�if�applicable,�in�the�Head-Up�Display�(HUD).

Symbols�(HUD�&�KOMBI) Explanation
Acute�warning:

• Person�symbol�flashes�and�a�signal
sounds
• Request�for�intervention�by�braking
and,�if�necessary,�evasive�action�(if
necessary�assisted�by�the�Evasion

4.�Intersection�Collision�Warning
The�Intersection�collision�warning�is�also�used�in�the�G15.�Since�an�extremely�exact�environment
analysis�must�be�performed�in�front�of�the�vehicle�for�this�function,�the�data�from�the�KAFAS�High
camera,�the�front�radar�sensor�long�range�(FRSF)�and�the�side�radar�sensors�short�range�front
(SRSNVL�and�SRSNVR)�are�evaluated.�Thus,�the�Intersection�collision�warning�with�city�braking
function�is�only�available�with�the�optional�equipment�Active�Driving�Assistant�Professional�(SA 5AU).

In�the�previous�function�characteristics,�an�acute�warning�is�issued�and�a�preconditioning�of�the�brake
system�is�performed.�The�responsibility�for�preventing�an�imminent�collision�is�still�the�driver's�alone.

With�the�introduction�of�the�G15,�the�Intersection�collision�warning�with�city�braking�function�now
provides�assistance�in�the�speed�range�of�approximately 10-80 km/h�as�and,�when�required,�with�a
supporting�brake�intervention.�The�intensity�of�the�brake�intervention�is�controlled�depending�on�the
situation.

In�addition,�the�acute�warning�has�been�supplemented�by�an�advance�warning.�The�warning�time�of�the
Intersection�collision�warning�with�city�braking�function�can�only�be�set�as�part�of�the�Front�collision

The�Intersection�collision�warning�with�city�braking�function�does�not�relieve�the�driver�of�personal
responsibility�for�correctly�judging�the�visibility�and�traffic�situation.�The�driver's�driving�style�should�be
adapted�to�the�traffic�conditions.�The�driver�should�check�the�traffic�conditions,�and�react�accordingly�if

6.�Automatic�Lane�Change
The�G15�introduces�the�Automatic�Lane�Change�function�to�the�US�market.�Automatic�Lane�Change
supports�the�driver�when�changing�lanes,�for�example�when�passing�on�highways.�The�system�offers
the�driver�further�convenience�with�this�and�can�contribute�to�avoiding�possible�collisions�with�another
vehicle�travelling�in�the�same�direction.

If�the�driver�has�activated�the�system�and�the�destination�lane�is�free,�the�vehicle�automatically�carries
out�a�steering�wheel�movement�and�returns�to�lane�guidance�(Steering�Assistant)�after�the�lane�change
is�completed.

The�system�assists�the�driver�in�the�speed�range�from�approximately�70�km/h�to�approximately
180�km/h.

6.1.�Functional�principle
Automatic�Lane�Change�is�activated�if�the�driver�operates�the�turn�indicator�(“one-touch�signalling”
and�holds�it�for�approximately�1�second)�with�Steering�Assistant�activated.�This�signals�to�the
system�that�the�driver�would�like�to�change�to�the�adjacent�lane�with�system�support.

First�the�system�analyzes�whether�a�danger-free�lane�change�is�possible,�and�also�whether�sufficient
room�for�the�maneuver�is�available.�The�surroundings�are�monitored�by�the�side�radar�sensors�and�the
data�from�the�KAFAS�camera.�The�KAFAS�camera�is�principally�used�for�lane�detection.

The�radar�sensors�are�not�only�responsible�for�the�detection�of�an�object,�but�are�also�able�to�take�into
consideration�the�speed�of�vehicles�detected�nearby.

6.1.1.�Monitoring�ranges

The�vehicle�performs�the�lane�change�automatically�if�the�sensor�system�does�not�detect�any
vehicles�in�the�relevant�safety�zone�and�if�there�is�sufficient�room�for�maneuvering�available.�It�is�of�no
importance�whether�the�vehicle�lane�change�is�for�passing�purposes�or�whether�the�driver�is�simply
wishing�to�change�lanes.

The�direction�of�the�lane�change�is�determined�by�the�turn�indicator�which�has�been�previously�set.

G15�Automatic�Lane�Change

The�driver�merely�has�to�monitor�the�lane�change.�This�does�not,�however,�mean�that�he�is�released
from�his�duties�as�a�driver.�For�instance,�the�driver�is�also�obliged�to�check�whether�a�lane�change�is
permissible�at�all,�and�has�to�take�account�of�passing�restrictions,�solid�lines,�etc.�Automatic�Lane
Change�does�not�take�these�circumstances�into�consideration.

Once�the�change�to�the�adjacent�lane�is�complete,�the�vehicle�returns�to�lane�guidance�(Steering
Assistant).

The�lane�change�maneuver�will�be�aborted�if,�once�it�has�started,�the�turn�indicator�lever�is�released�too
soon�(less�than�approximately�1�second),�a�Blind�Spot�Collision�Warning�warning�is�issued�or�an�object
is�detected�to�the�side�of�the�vehicle.�If�the�lane�change�maneuver�is�automatically�cancelled�before�the
vehicle�has�crossed�the�lane�marker,�the�vehicle�is�guided�back�into�the�original�lane.

The�driver�has�full�responsibility�for�the�lane�change�maneuver,�including�checking�that�the�destination
lane�is�free.

The�maximum�steering�torque�has�been�set�in�such�a�way�that�it�can�always�be�overruled�by�the�driver
and�therefore�steering�past�the�maximum�steering�torque�is�possible.�This�means�that�the�driver�has

7.2.�Speed�Limiter
The�G15�introduces�the�Speed�Limiter�to�the�US�market.�This�function�has�been�available�in�European
markets�for�many�years.

With�the�Speed�Limiter,�the�maximum�speed�of�the�vehicle�can�be�limited�by�the�driver.�The�minimum
value�that�can�be�selected�is�30�km/h.

If�required,�the�driver�can�consciously�exceed�the�speed�limit�by�firmly�accelerating�(pressing�the
accelerator�pedal�down�fully).�The�limit�is�automatically�reactivated�when�the�driver�speed�drops�below
the�set�limit.

The�Speed�Limiter�does�not�initiate�any�active�brake�interventions.�This�means�that�if�the�driver
inadvertently�exceeds�the�set�speed�limit,�as�can�be�the�case�during�downhill�driving�for�example,�the
system�does�not�brake�automatically.

7.2.1.�Operation
The�Speed�Limiter�can�be�activated�and�deactivated�using�the�LIM�button�on�the�multifunction
steering�wheel�(MFL).�The�vehicle’s�current�speed�is�adopted�as�the�speed�limit.�If�the�system�is
