Camera-based driver support systems (KAFAS)
Depending on the options fitted, various camera-based systems are available. Technical implementation is realized with a camera in the mirror base and a control unit, the KAFAS control unit.
The display functions of the camera-based driver support systems are:
- Lane departure warning
- High-Beam Assistant (not permitted in Japan)
- Speed limit (Speed Limit Info)
- Collision warning
- Overtaking ban
- New: Urban traffic accident prevention
- New: Preventive pedestrian protection
- New: Traffic jam assistant, see dedicated FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
NOTE:
If the customer orders exclusively the high-beam assistant (5AC), the system is implemented with a camera and its own control unit in the inside mirror.
The speed limit and overtake warning functions are only available with the Professional navigation system.
