Mercedes-Benz Standard and Available Safety Features

The standard and available safety and driver-assistance features on Mercedes-Benz vehicles act as an extra set of eyes that will put you and your passenger's safety first. Mercedes-Benz is known for its luxurious vehicles, but it also boasts top-notch safety features like a rearview camera and high-beam headlights, along with more advanced features such as:

• Forward Automatic Emergency Braking – Your vehicle uses sensors, radars, and cameras to monitor your surroundings, and if a potential hazard is detected in front of your vehicle, then this feature will automatically apply the emergency brakes to avoid a collision.
• Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers – Your windshield wipers can detect moisture building up on the windshield and then automatically turn on the wipers and adjust them to the correct speed to remove the moisture.
• Guard 360 – The cameras located around the vehicle will monitor and record your vehicle's surroundings when the vehicle is parked.
• PRE-SAFE – Your vehicle will automatically tighten seatbelts, adjust headrests, and close windows if a potential impact is detected. Your vehicle will also emit pink noise to help protect the inner ear during the collision.
• Blind Spot Monitoring – When you’re traveling down and initiate a lane change, your vehicle will monitor your blind spot, and if an approaching vehicle is detected, it will alert the driver of the danger.
• Traffic Sign Recognition – This feature will use cameras mounted on the vehicle to detect road signs and will display them on your dashboard so you always know the posted speed limit.
• Hands-Free Park Assist – Your vehicle will check the surroundings on a crowded street or in a parking lot for available perpendicular or parallel parking spaces. It can self-park once the space is detected, so you don’t have to stress.
• Attention Assist – This feature will monitor your driving habits, and if it notices a decrease in attentiveness, then it will alert the driver that it may be time to stop and rest.
• Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC – Your vehicle can maintain a preset distance by stopping or slowing during traffic.
