This intelligent safety system can automatically apply the brakes to stop the vehicle, helping prevent collisions in tight parking spaces or congested areas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Activating Close-Range Braking&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure the Close-Range Braking function is active in your EQB, follow these steps:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Access the Multimedia System:<\/strong> On your vehicle\u2019s media display, navigate to the camera and parking menu.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Enable the Function: <\/strong>Select Settings > Assistance > Parking Maneuvering Assistant to toggle the Close-Range Braking feature on or off.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Confirm Activation: <\/strong>When enabled, the system will intervene when it detects a pedestrian in the vehicle\u2019s reversing path.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"999\" height=\"615\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ULlnv0Y6_vw?si=avBm5yMUuYNLjHNv\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How the System Works&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once activated, the Close-Range Braking function utilizes the vehicle\u2019s reversing camera to monitor the surrounding area. If a pedestrian or obstacle is detected while the vehicle is reversing, the system can automatically apply the brakes until the car comes to a complete stop. This feature is handy in busy urban settings or parking lots with limited visibility.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Limitations of Close-Range Braking&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Close-Range Braking function is a valuable safety enhancement, it is essential to be aware of its limitations:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It does not function on inclines, so extra caution is required when reversing on slopes.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The system cannot intervene if towing equipment is attached to the vehicle and connected electrically.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It relies on the proper functioning of Active Parking Assist, the 360\u00b0 camera, and the reversing camera.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enhance Your Driving Confidence&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Utilizing the Close-Range Braking function in your Mercedes-Benz EQB allows you to navigate parking spaces and tight areas with greater ease and security.
