should be accepted exactly, or with a tolerance
of –15 km/h, –10 mph to +15 km/h, +10 mph.
Via iDrive:
1. "My Vehicle"
2. "Vehicle settings"
3. "Speed Limit Assist"
4. "Adjust suggestion:"
5. Confirm the desired setting.
System limits
Speed Limit Assist is based on the Speed Limit
Info system, meaning that the system limits of
Speed Limit Info, see page 155, must also be
considered.
Depending on the country, displayed speed lim‐
its may not be available for acceptance, or only
available with restrictions, for example with speed
information from the navigation system.

Principle
The system helps the driver keep the vehicle in
lane. To do this, the system assists by perform‐
ing steering movements, for example when cor‐
nering.
General
The system detects the position of the lane
markings and the vehicle driving in front using
five radar sensors and a camera.
Depending on the speed, the system orientates
itself using the lane markings and vehicles driving
in front.
Sensors on the steering wheel detect whether
the steering wheel is being touched.

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 danger of acci‐
dents. Adapt your driving style to the traffic
conditions. Observe the traffic situation and in‐
tervene actively if the situation warrants it.
