Lane Departure Warning
Principle
The Lane Departure Warning issues a warning if
the vehicle leaves the road or its lane.
General
This camera-based system warns once a mini‐
mum speed has been reached.
The minimum speed is country-specific and is
displayed in the menu for the Intelligent Safety
Systems.
Warnings are issued in the form of steering
wheel vibrations. The strength of the steering
wheel vibration can be adjusted.
The system does not issue a warning if the driver
indicates in the corresponding direction before
leaving the driving lane.
Depending on the equipment, if a lane marking is
crossed in the speed range up to 210 km/h, ap‐
prox. 130 mph, the system may intervene not
only by vibrating but also with a brief active steer‐
ing intervention. The system thereby helps to
keep the vehicle in lane.
Safety notes
WARNING
The system does not relieve you of your per‐
sonal responsibility to assess the layout of the
road and the traffic situation. There is a risk of
accident. Adapt your driving style to the traffic
conditions. Observe the traffic situation and in‐
tervene actively if the situation warrants it. In
the event of a warning, do not move the steer‐
ing wheel unnecessarily abruptly.
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.
Operating requirements
The lane marking must be detected by the cam‐
era in order for the Lane Departure Warning to
be active.
