Safety note
WARNING
The system does not relieve you of your per‐
sonal responsibility to assess the traffic situa‐
tion correctly. Due to system limitations, it can‐
not respond independently and appropriately in
all traffic conditions. There is a risk of accident.
Adapt your driving style to the traffic conditions.
Observe the traffic conditions, be ready to take
over steering and braking at any time, and ac‐
tively intervene if the situation warrants it.
Additionally, the Assisted Driving notices apply.
