ection will be restored when the
vehicle is stopped for more than 15 minutes,
when the ignition is switched off or when the
driver has unbuckled their seat belt and
opened the door.
In the event of slow driving during a long peri-
od of time (below 65 km/h, 40 mph) the sys-
tem automatically re-establishes the tired-
ness calculation. When driving at a faster
speed the driving behaviour will be recalcula-
ted.
WARNING
Do not let the comfort afforded by the Fati-
gue detection system t
empt you into taking
any risks when driving. Take regular breaks,
sufficient in length when making long jour-
neys.
●
The driver always assumes the responsi-
bility of driving to their full capacity.
●
Never drive if you are tired.
●
The system does not detect the tir
edness
of the driver in all circumstances. Consult
the information in the section

page 70,
System limitations.
●
In some situations, the system may incor-
rectly interpret an intended driving ma-
noeuvre as driver tiredness.
●
No warning is given in the event of the ef-
fect called microsleep!
●
Please observe the indications on the in-
strument panel and act as is necessary.
Note
●
Fatigue detection has been de
veloped
for driving on motorways and well paved
roads only.

If there is a fault in the system, have it
checked by a specialised workshop.

er the vehicle ignition is switched
on.
The system records the standard traffic signs
in front of the vehicle with a camera located
on the base of the interior mirror and provides
information about speed limits, hazard warn-
ings and overtaking prohibitions. Within its
limitations, the system also displays addition-
al signals, such as time-specific prohibitions,
signs for vehicles towing trailers

or limitations that only apply in the event of
rain. Even on journeys without signs, the sys-
tem may display any applicable speed limits.
The traffic sign detection system does not
work in all countries. Keep this in mind when
travelling abroad.
