▷ Two-wheeled vehicles ahead.

settings.

▷ Cameras, see page 47.
▷ Radar sensors, see page 48.
Functional limitations
The system may have limited functionality in the
following situations, for example:
▷ On sharp bends.
▷ When Driving Stability Control Systems are
limited or deactivated, for example DSC OFF.
▷ Up to 10 seconds after starting the engine
using the Start/Stop button.
Sensitivity of the warnings
The higher the sensitivity of the warning settings,
for example warning time, the more warnings are
displayed. As a result, there may also be an in‐
creased number of premature or unjustified
warnings and responses.
Avoidance assistant
Principle
The system supports the driver in certain situa‐
tions when there is a need to avoid something,
for example people or obstacles that appear sud‐
denly.
General
The system issues warnings and intervenes to
provide support if there is a possibility to perform
an evasive manoeuvre to the side. Sensors mon‐
itor and detect the space around the vehicle. The
system then utilises the detected free space to
perform the evasive manoeuvre by steering the
vehicle safely and precisely in the direction
specified by the driver.
Safety notes
WARNING
The system does not relieve you of your per‐
sonal responsibility to assess the visibility con‐
ditions and traffic situation correctly. There is a
risk of accident. Adapt your driving style to the
traffic conditions. Observe the traffic situation
and intervene actively if the situation warrants it.
WARNING
Displays and warnings do not relieve you of
your personal responsibility. System limitations
can mean that warnings or system responses
are not issued or are issued too late, incorrectly
or without justification. There is a risk of acci‐
dent. Adapt your driving style to the traffic con‐
ditions. Observe the traffic situation and inter‐
vene actively if the situation warrants it.
