Lane departure warning (Side Assist)
Lane assist Plus.
The Lane Assist Plus function can be used by
activating the Lane Assist ›››page174 and
Side Assist functions. In this case its functions
are expanded as described below.
If the driver initiates a lane change manoeuvre
in a potential critical situation:
●
The lamp flashes in the corresponding rear-
view mirror even though the turn signal has not
been activated.
●
The steering wheel vibrates to warn the driver
of the risk of collision.
●
torque is applied to correct the steering and
return the vehicle to its lane.
Driving situations
Fig.129 Overtaking with trac behind the
vehicle.
Fig.130 Overtaking in the central lane and then
joining the right lane.
In the following situations, an indication will be
displayed by the control lamp ›››Fig.127 ,
›››Fig.128 (arrow):
●
When being overtaken by another vehicle
›››Fig.129.
●
When overtaking another vehicle ›››Fig.130
with a speed dierence of approx. 10 km/h (6
mph). If the vehicle is passing at a considerably
higher speed, no indication will be displayed.
The faster the vehicle approaches, the sooner
an indication will be displayed in the control
lamp, because the lane departure warning
takes into account the speed dierential with
other vehicles. Thus even though the distance
from the other vehicle is identical, the indication
will appear sooner in some cases and later in
others.
