If the turn signal is switched on before a lane
change, a warning is not issued.
Steering intervention
If in the speed range up to 130 mph/210 km/h a
lane marking is crossed, the system intervenes
with a brief active steering intervention in addi‐
tion to vibrating. The steering intervention helps
keep the vehicle in the lane. The steering inter‐
vention can be noticed on the steering wheel
and can be manually overridden at any time. Dur‐
ing an active steering intervention, the display in
the instrument cluster will blink.

Warning signal

In the event of multiple active steering interven‐
tions by the system within 3 minutes without the
driver's intervention at the steering wheel, an
acoustic warning will sound. A short warning sig‐
nal will sound at the second steering interven‐
tion. Beginning with the third steering interven‐
tion, an continuous warning will sound.
In addition, a Check Control message is dis‐
played.
The warning signal and Check-Control message
are an encouragement to pay closer attention to
the lane.
With trailer towing
If the trailer power socket is in use or trailer tow‐
ing is activated, for instance during operation
with trailer or bicycle rack, no steering interven‐
tion takes place.

End of warning

The warning is canceled in the following situa‐
tions:
▷ Automatically after approx. 3 seconds.
▷ When returning to your own lane.
▷ When braking hard.
▷ When using the turn signal.
