22.1.9.�Limits�of�the�system
When�driving�in�narrow�lanes,�e.g.�when�driving�through�roadworks�or�when�emergency�lanes�are
formed,�the�system�cannot�be�activated�or�used�meaningfully.
Due�to�the�limited�detection�capacity�of�the�KAFAS�stereo�camera,�the�driver�must�remain�alert�and
observant�in�order�to�be�able�to�actively�intervene�at�any�time�so�as�to�avoid�the�risk�of�an�accident.�The
system�does�not�relieve�the�driver�of�personal�responsibility�for�correctly�judging�the�traffic�situation.
