68 Night vision assistant/head-up display
The human eye is one of the most sensitive
sensory organs. But even it can sometimes miss
something. For example, when it is dark or you
have been dazzled. We are doing our best to help
you in these situations. The optional night vision
assistant with highlighting of detected pedestrians
records the area in front of the vehicle using a
thermal imaging camera and highlights any
identified pedestrians located between approx.
15 and 90 metres away with yellow highlighting in
the image. Should the system detect an imminent
collision between the vehicle and an identified
pedestrian, then the colour of the highlighting will
change to red and a warning
tone will sound.
In addition, the person is illuminated with 3
successive brief flashes of the right headlight
(marking light). The night vision assistant can be
turned on or off via a button on the rotary light
switch. Pedestrian highlighting, warning signals
and image contrast are configured in the CAR
menu. The optional head-up display forms a
useful complement to the night vision assistant.
At any time of day it projects a clear, easy-to-
read, full-colour virtual image beyond the
windscreen. The image content is portrayed
directly within the driver’s field of vision to
minimise any driver distraction. The head-up
display therefore contributes to greater traffic
safety. You can configure image content via the
CAR menu. As well as displaying current driving
speed and navigation data, information from the
driver assistance systems and speed limit display
can also be shown. When the night vision
assistant with highlighting of detected
pedestrians is activated and a potential danger is
detected, a warning symbol appears in the head-
up display. You can easily configure the head-up
display to your individual seat position.
