Steep roads and/or heavy load
Bear in mind that Pilot Assist is primarily
intended for use when driving on level road surfa-
ces. The function may have difficulty in keeping
the correct distance from the vehicle ahead when
driving on steep downhill slopes - in which case,
be extra attentive and ready to brake.
Do not use Pilot Assist if the car has a heavy
•
load or a trailer is connected to the car.
NOTE
Pilot Assist cannot be activated if a trailer,
bicycle rack or similar is connected to the
car's electrical system.
Miscellaneous
Off Road
drive mode cannot be selected
•
when Pilot Assist is activated.
NOTE
The function uses the car's combined Camera
and Radar unit, which has certain general lim-
itations – see the sections "Limitations for
Camera Unit" and "Limitations for Radar Unit"
respectively.
