Emergency Assist
How it works
Emergency Assist can detect whether the driver
is inactive and can automatically keep the car
in its lane and stop it altogether if necessary.
This way the system can actively help avoid an
accident or reduce its consequences.
Emergency Assist uses the same sensors as
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane As-
sist Therefore, carefully read the information
about the ACC ›››page200 and Lane Assist
›››page210 and take into account the limita-
tions of the systems and the indications given in
the information.
Emergency assist always available after the ig-
nition has been switched on and is activated if
the following conditions are met:
●
Travel Assist or Lane Assist) is switched on.
●
The system has detected at least one lane
boundary to the left or right of the vehicle.
Driver intervention prompt
If the emergency assist detects that the driver is
not actively doing anything, he or she is promp-
ted to take control of the vehicle by audio
warnings and a brief application of the brake. In
addition, a warning is shown on the instrument
cluster display and the volume of the infotain-
ment system is lowered.
Depending on the equipment, the driver’s seat
belt is tightened at the same time.
System intervention
If the driver does not react, the system can
brake the vehicle and keep it in its lane. The fol-
lowing control lamp lights up on the instrument
cluster display:
The system is regulating, lane guidance
is activated.
The system is regulating, passive lane
guidance.
You can cancel the adjustment at any time by
moving the steering wheel, over-accelerating
or braking.
While the emergency assistant is in operation,
other road users are warned as follows:
●
The hazard warning lights are switched on
soon after.
●
The horn sounds (depending on the speed).
