Location 

On model 166.0 and 292 vehicles, the COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST controller unit is located in the direction of travel at right behind the front bumper.

On model 166.8 vehicles, the COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST controller unit is located in the direction of travel at right behind the radiator grille.

Tasks 

The COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST controller unit detects obstacles and vehicles ahead and warns the driver about a possible collision.

The COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST controller unit transmits object data for collision avoiding interventions by the brake system to the radar sensors control unit (with code 23P (Driving Assistance Package)).

IMPORTANT If the COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST controller unit detects a risk of collision, it initiates autonomous brake application.

This results in the following tasks for the COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST controller unit:

Reading in input factors 

The COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST controller unit receives the following input factors, among other things, via chassis CAN 1 (CAN E1):

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 assembly parts are actuated.

Transmission of initial parameters 

The COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST controller unit also transmits the following initial parameters via chassis CAN 1:

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

Structure 

The COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST controller unit includes the following assembly parts:

Properties of the radar sensor:

IMPORTANT The COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST controller unit must be newly adjusted after replacement (e. g. after an accident repair) using the integrated "Service Adjustment Mode".
