Crash-responsive EASY-EXIT feature

Mercedes-Benz S-Class / Mercedes-Benz S-Class Owners Manual / Seats, steering wheel and mirrors / Steering wheel / EASY-ENTRY/EXIT system / Crash-responsive EASY-EXIT feature

If the crash-responsive EASY-EXIT feature is triggered in an accident, the steering column will move upwards when the driver's door is opened. This occurs irrespective of the position of the SmartKey in the ignition lock.

This makes it easier to exit the vehicle and rescue the occupants.

The crash-responsive EASY-EXIT feature is only operational if the EASY-EXIT/ENTRY feature is activated in the on-board computer.
