Operating limits
The system may issue an alert when the

driver thinks they are holding the steering
wheel correctly.
The system may not operate or may produce
unsuitable corrections to the steering in the
following situations:
– Poor visibility (insufficient road lighting,
snowfall, rain, fog).
– Dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low
sun, reflections on a wet road surface, leaving a
tunnel, alternating light and shade).
– Windscreen area in front of the camera dirty,
misted up, frost-covered, snow-covered, damaged
or covered by a sticker.
– Lane markings eroded, partially hidden (snow,
mud) or multiple (roadworks, surface joints).
– Travelling in a tight bend.
– Winding roads.
– Presence of a tarmac joint on the road.
Risk of undesirable operation
The system should be deactivated in the
following situations:
– Driving with a "space-saver" type spare
wheel.
– When towing or with a bicycle carrier
attached to a towing device, particularly when
a trailer is not connected or the trailer is not an
approved type.
– Adverse weather conditions.
– Driving on slippery road surfaces (risk of
aquaplaning, snow, ice).
– In roadworks or toll booth areas.
– Driving on racing circuits.
