WARNING

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.

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.

pected, interrupt the intervention of the
