Principle

in the blind spot or vehicles approaching from
behind in the adjacent lane.
The light in the exterior mirror emits warnings
at different steps.
An automatic steering intervention helps to
keep the vehicle in its lane.
General information
Radar sensors monitor the area behind and
next to the vehicle when traveling faster than a
minimum speed.

Safety
The minimum speed is country-specific and
displayed in the Active Blind Spot Detection
menu.
The system indicates whether there are vehi-
cles in your blind spot, arrow 1, or approaching

vibrate.
