Driver alert system (break recom-
mendation)
Fig.23 On the screen of the instrument
panel: fatigue detection.
The driver alert system informs the driver when
it deduces tiredness due to his/her behaviour
at the wheel.
Function and operation
Fatigue detection determines the driving be-
haviour of the driver when starting a journey,
making a calculation of tiredness. This is con-
stantly compared with the current driving be-
haviour. If the system detects that the driver is
tired, an audible warning is given with a sound
and an optical warning is shown with a sym-
bol and supplementary message on the instru-
ment cluster screen ›››Fig.23. The message
on the instrument panel display is shown for
approximately 5 seconds, and depending on
the case, is repeated. The system stores the
last message displayed.
The warning on the instrument cluster display
can be hidden as follows:
●
Press the button on the multifunction
steering wheel.
Conditions of operation
Driving behaviour is only calculated at speeds
above about 60km/h (40mph).
Activating and deactivating
Fatigue detection can be activated or deac-
tivated in the infotainment system using the
function button > Assistants > Driver
alerts.
The driver alert system is always switched
on when the drive system is connected
›››page35.
System limitations
The Fatigue detection has certain limitations
inherent to the system. The following condi-
tions can limit the Fatigue detection or prevent
it from functioning.
●
At speeds below 60km/h (40mph).
●
When cornering
●
In sections with roadworks.
●
On roads in poor condition
●
In unfavourable weather conditions
●
When a sporty driving style is employed
●
In the event of a serious distraction to the
driver
Fatigue detection will be restored when the
vehicle is stopped for more than 15 minutes,
when the ignition is switched o or when
the driver has unbuckled their seat belt and
opened the door.
In the event of slow driving during a long pe-
riod of time (below 60km/h, 40mph) the sys-
tem automatically re-establishes the tiredness
calculation. When driving at a faster speed the
driving behaviour will be recalculated.
