Location 

The radar sensor for the collision warning system is located at the front right rear bumper.

Task 

The collision warning system radar sensor detects obstacles as well as the vehicles immediately ahead and warns the driver about any possible collision.

The collision warning system radar sensor transmits object data for collision avoiding intervention by the brake system to the Electronic Stability Program (ESP) control unit (N30/4).

IMPORTANT The collision warning system radar sensor recognizes a collision risk and initiates an autonomous brake application.

This results in the following tasks for the collision warning system radar sensor:

Reading in input factors 

The collision warning system radar sensor receives, amongst other things, the following input factors via the chassis CAN (CAN E):

The resulting functions are described in the respective function descriptions (see also block diagram or function schematic).

Evaluation of input factors 

The input factors are evaluated by the microprocessor and the corresponding components are actuated.

Transmission of initial parameters 

The collision warning system radar sensor transmits the following initial parameters via the chassis CAN:

The functions that use these signals are described in the individual function descriptions (see block diagram or function schematic).

Body 

The collision warning system radar sensor contains the following components:

Properties of the radar sensor:

IMPORTANT The collision warning system radar sensor must be readjusted using the integrated "Service Adjustment Mode" after replacement (e.g. after an accident repair).
