cation.
G WARNING
Active Lane Keeping Assist does not detect
traffic conditions or road users. In very rare
cases, the system may make an inappropriate
brake application, e.g. after intentionally driv-
ing over a solid lane marking. There is a risk of
an accident.
An inappropriate brake application may be
interrupted at any time if you steer slightly in
the opposite direction. Always make sure that
there is sufficient distance on the side for
other traffic or obstacles.
In rare cases, Active Lane Keeping Assist can
recognize unclear markings or particular
structures on the roadway as solid lane mark-
ings. An inappropriate brake application may
be interrupted at any time if you steer slightly
in the opposite direction.
If a lane-correcting brake application occurs,
display : appears in the multifunction dis-
play.
If you leave your lane, under certain circum-
stances the vehicle will brake briefly on one
side. This is meant to assist you in bringing
the vehicle back to the original lane.
This function is available in the range between
40 mph and 120 mph (60 km/h and
200 km/h).
A lane-correcting brake application can only
be made after driving over a solid, recogniz-
able lane marking. Before this, a warning
Driving systems
must be given by means of intermittent vibra-
tion in the steering wheel. In addition, a lane
with lane markings on both sides must be
recognized. The brake application also
slightly reduces vehicle speed.
i
A further lane-correcting brake applica-
tion can only occur after your vehicle has
returned to the original lane.
