Steering assistance at risk of
collision
The Collision avoidance function can help
the driver reduce the risk of the vehicle leav-

with another vehicle or obstacle by actively
steering the vehicle back into its lane and/or
swerving.
The function consists of these subfunctions:
Run-Off Mitigation with steering assis-
•
tance

•
from oncoming traffic
Steering assistance during collision risks
•
from behind*
After the system has automatically intervened,

ment panel:

WARNING
The function is supplementary driver
•
support intended to facilitate driving
and help make it safer – it cannot han-
dle all situations in all traffic, weather
and road conditions.
The driver is advised to read all sec-
•
tions in the Owner's Manual about this
function to learn of its limitations,
which the driver must be aware of
before using the function.
Driver support functions are not a sub-
•
stitute for the driver's attention and
judgment. The driver is always respon-
sible for ensuring the vehicle is driven
in a safe manner, at the appropriate
speed, with an appropriate distance to
other vehicles, and in accordance with
current traffic rules and regulations.
NOTE
It is always the driver who must decide
how much the vehicle should be in control
– the vehicle can never take command.
