The warning stops when the other vehicle has
left the critical area or the turn signal has been
deactivated.
Vehicles with side collision
mitigation
When there is no response to the vibration of the
steering wheel at speeds of up to
130 mph/210 km/h and the lane marking is
crossed, the system intervenes with a brief active
steering intervention. The steering intervention
helps return the vehicle into the lane. The steer‐
ing intervention can be noticed on the steering
wheel and can be manually overridden at any
time.
Flashing of the light
A flashing of the light during vehicle unlocking
serves as system self-test.

System limits of the sensors
Additional information:
▷ Radar sensors, refer to page 36.
▷ On vehicles with side collision warning: cam‐

▷ When a vehicle is approaching at a speed
much faster than your own.

▷ If the bumper is dirty, iced up, or covered,
for instance by stickers.
For vehicles with side collision mitigation, the
steering intervention can be limited, for instance
in the following situation:
▷ In the event of missing, worn, poorly visible,
merging, diverging, or multiple lane markings
such as in construction areas.
▷ When lane markings are covered in snow, ice,
dirt or water.
