Function of pedestrian and animal detection of Night View Assist
Night View Assist can detect pedestrians using typical characteristics, e.g. the body contours and posture of a person standing upright.
Large animals, e.g. deer, cows or horses, can also be detected. Smaller animals, e.g. dogs or cats, are not detected.
Pedestrian and animal detection is automatically switched on when the following requirements are fulfilled:
Night View Assist is activated.
The driving speed is at least 10 km/h.
It is dark.
If pedestrian detection is active, standby symbol appears. There is no separate symbol for animals. Detected pedestrians or animals are highlighted by a coloured frame.
