Assistant systems
WARNING
The smart technology tted into the Emer-
gency Assist cannot overcome the limits im-
posed by the laws of physics; it only works
within the limits of the system. The driver is
responsible for driving the vehicle.
●
Adapt your speed and safety distance to
the vehicle in front of you at all times to suit
the visibility, weather, road and traic condi-
tions.
●
The Emergency Assist cannot always avoid
accidents or serious injuries by itself.
●
If the radar sensor or the camera are cov-
ered or have been altered or damaged, the
system may intervene on the brakes or on the
direction in an inappropriate manner.
●
The Emergency Assist does not react to
people or animal or vehicles crossing your
path or which approach you head-on in the
same lane.
WARNING
If the Emergency Assist Intervenes inoppor-
tunely, serious accidents and injuries may
occur.
●
If the vehicle behaves dierently than ex-
pected, interrupt the intervention of the
Emergency Assist by over-accelerating, brak-
ing or moving the steering wheel.
●
Do not use Travel Assist or Lane Assist.
Have the system checked by a specialised
workshop.
Troubleshooting
Emergency Assist not available
The control lamp lights up in yellow. A relevant
warning is also displayed on the instrument
cluster display.
●
There is a fault or a defect. Turn the drive
system o and on again.
●
If the problem persists, switch o the Emer-
gency Assist and go to a specialised workshop.
Lane departure warning
(Side Assist)
Introduction
The lane departure warning uses radar sen-
sors to monitor the areas behind the vehicle
›››page6. The system does this by measuring
the vehicle's distance from other vehicles and
its speed dierential. The lane departure warn-
ing will not work at speeds of less than approx.
15km/h (9mph).
Lane width is not detected individually, but is
rather pre-congured in the system. Thus if
you are driving in wide lanes or in between
two lanes, the indications may be incorrect.
Furthermore, the system can detect vehicles
driving in the lane next to you (if there are any),
and can also detect stationary objects such as
dividers, and thus give an incorrect indication.
Physical limitations inherent to the system
In some situations the lane departure warning
may not interpret the traic situation correctly.
I.e. in the following situations:
●
on tight bends;
●
in the case of lanes with dierent widths;
●
in areas with signicant gradient changes;
●
in adverse weather conditions;
●
in the case of special constructions to the
side of the vehicle, e.g., high or irregular divid-
ers.
WARNING
The smart technology incorporated into Side
Assist cannot overcome the limits imposed
by the laws of physics; it only works within the
limits of the system. Accidents and severe
injury may occur if Side Assist is used negli-
gently or involuntarily. The system is not a
replacement for driver awareness.
●
Adapt your speed and safe distance to the
vehicle in front of you at all times to suit visi-
bility, weather, road and traic conditions.
●
Keep your hands on the wheel at all times
to be ready to intervene in the steering at any
time.
●
Pay attention to the control lamps that may
come on in the external interior mirrors and
on the instrument cluster, and follow any in-
structions they may give.
