Arrive safely – with the support of innovative assistance systems to improve driving safety which actively relieve the strain on the driver and treat the vehicle and the load with sufficient care, thereby contributing to higher efficiency. On every journey. Mercedes-Benz employs many safety and assistance systems to reduce risks and ease the burden on the driver. Systems such as the bi-xenon headlamps, the rain and light sensor, the co-driver's mirror with manoeuvring function, Lane Keeping Assist149, Roll Control Assist and tyre pressure monitoring provide the driver with additional support.

Attention Assist.
The system can recognise increasing tiredness and recommend the driver takes a break.
Proximity Control Assist1, 98.
This assistance system with stop-and-go function is on hand to help the driver to maintain speeds and distances to vehicles ahead and can reduce the risk of rear-end collisions.
Sensor-controlled fifth-wheel coupling.
The sensor-controlled fifth-wheel coupling1 notifies the driver via a display in the instrument cluster whether the fifth-wheel coupling is open or closed. This increases safety and saves on repair costs.
Secondary water retarder.
The secondary water retarder1, 99 is wear- and maintenance-free and offers increased brake power, higher average speeds on downhill stretches and less weight than conventional oil retarders.
Bi-xenon headlamps1, 91.
Both the dipped and the main beam headlamps benefit from the high light output of the bi-xenon lamps, which also use less energy than the standard headlights.
Active Brake Assist 4200, 208.
The fourth generation of the system assists the driver201, 211 by carrying out full brake application in response to stationary and moving objects and partial braking in response to pedestrians in motion; in this way, it can reduce the severity of accidents or even prevent them completely.
