Short-range sensors on left and right
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The short-range sensors are radar sensors (Short Range Radar).
Two identical short-range sensors are installed in vehicles with ACC and the Stop & Go function. Each of the short-range sensors is mounted on the front bumper bracket with a plastic bracket.

The sensor CAN (S-CAN) links the short-range sensors to the ICM Integrated Chassis Management control unit.
The short-range sensors discharge the following functions:
- Calculating position and movement data
- Short-range detection of objects up to a range of 30 meters from the front of the vehicle
The object data from the short-range sensors are used exclusively to support the ACC Stop & Go function (not for the adaptive Dynamic Brake Control).
