What does it mean when the Mercedes Preventive Safety System function is limited?

When the Mercedes Preventive Safety System function is limited, it means that during normal driving, if the steering wheel is turned rapidly multiple times in a short period, a warning about the limited function of the Preventive Safety System will appear. This is one of the safety alerts from the vehicle's computer system, which compares the driver's actual operation with the 'rules' stored in the computer and then makes a judgment. It serves as a reminder for the driver to pay attention to vehicle operation and is not a safety issue. The warning can be dismissed by pressing the OK button. The Mercedes PRE-SAFE is a predictive safety system, also known as the pre-safe protection system. Principle of the Preventive Safety System: The PRE-SAFE predictive safety system anticipates hazards through ESP and BAS sensors and triggers preventive measures to protect the driver and passengers. During driving, if there is a risk of skidding due to oversteering or understeering, the PRE-SAFE predictive safety system will activate, for example, by tightening the driver and front passenger seat belts with electric retractable tensioners.
