Driving
may be that the system does not intervene
at all. In these situations, special attention
is required from the driver and, where ap-
propriate, the temporary deactivation of
the lane assist warning system:
–
In very sporty driving situations.
–
In adverse weather conditions and
roads in poor condition.
–
When passing through areas undergo-
ing works.
–
Before gradient changes of grade and
river beds.
●
Always observe the vehicle surroundings
carefully and drive proactively.
●
When the area of vision of the camera
becomes dirty, covered or is damaged, the
Lane Assist system function can be affec-
ted.

Driving with the Lane Assist System
Fig. 166
On the instrument panel display: indica-
tions of the Lane Assist System.

venes assisting on the represented side.
Lane line detected. The system does not
intervene.
Switching the lane assist system on or off
In some countries, the Lane Assist System is
always activated when the ignition is switch-

2
ed on. The connection status is shown in the
Driver assistance menu of the Infotainment
system or the driver assistance systems
menu after pressing the corresponding but-
ton. The Lane Assist system can be activated
and deactivated in these menus.
The Lane Assist system is ready to actively in-
tervene as of approximately 60 km/h (35
mph) and if it has detected the lane limits
(system status: active). The control lamp
emits a green light. When the system inter-
venes by rectifying the direction, the control
lamp
emits a yellow light.
If the control lamp of the instrument panel
display is off, it means that the Lane Assist
system is connected but not ready to inter-
vene or it is disconnected.
When you activate a turn signal, the system
temporarily goes into a passive state in order
to allow manual lane change.
An energetic rotation or rectification of the
steering wheel by the driver causes the sys-
tem to temporarily switch to a passive state.
Driver intervention prompt
If the steering is not corrected manually, the
system prompts the driver through an indi-
cation on the instrument panel display and
acoustic warnings.
If no reaction is obtained from the driver, the
system switches to a passive state.
