Drowsiness monitor
Introduction
Fig.7 On the instrument cluster display:
Drowsiness monitor symbol.
The drowsiness monitor informs the driver
whether his or her driving behaviour is indi-
cative of fatigue.
The drowsiness monitor determines the driver's
driving behaviour and uses this information to
assess driver fatigue. If the system detects that
the driver is tired, it indicates this visually on the
instrument cluster display by means of a con-
trol or warning lamp in combination with a sup-
plementary text message. It also issues an audi-
ble warning ›››page28. The text message
on the instrument cluster display is displayed
for 4 to 6 seconds.
Operating conditions
Driving behaviour is assessed only at speeds
above 65 km/h and thereafter only at speeds
above 60 km/h.
WARNING
The drowsiness monitor is no substitute for
the driver's attention and only works within
the limits of the system. Therefore, the
drowsiness monitor may not detect that the
driver is tired in all situations and may not
give a warning or may give a delayed or un-
intended warning. There is a risk of accidents
and serious or even fatal injuries.
●
Always pay proper attention and do not
rely solely on the system. The driver is re-
sponsible for his or her fitness to drive at all
times.
●
Note the limits of the system ›››page27.
●
Never drive a vehicle when you are tired.
●
During long journeys, take regular and suf-
ficient breaks.
●
Follow the information on the instrument
cluster display and respond as prompted.
