Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Operator's Manual page 193

If the system detects that the driver has not
steered the vehicle for a considerable period of
time or has removed their hands from the steering
wheel, a visual warning is given first. Display
appears on the driver's display. If the driver still
does not steer the vehicle, or gives no confirma-
tion to the system, a warning tone sounds in addi-
tion to the visual warning message.
If the driver does not react to this warning for a
considerable period, an emergency stop is initi-
ated ( page 192).
/
The warning is not issued or is stopped as soon as
the system detects that the driver is touching the
steering wheel.
Touch detection may be limited or may not func-
tion if there is no direct contact between hand
and steering wheel, e.g. if you are wearing gloves
or if there is a steering wheel cover on the steer-
ing wheel.
If Active Steering Assist detects that a system
limit has been reached, a visual warning is issued
and a warning tone sounds.
Observe the notes on driving systems and your
responsibility; you may otherwise fail to recognize
dangers ( page 171).

System limits
Active Steering Assist has a limited steering tor-
1
que for lateral guidance. In some cases, the steer-
ing intervention is not sufficient to keep the vehi-
cle in the lane.
The system may be impaired or may not function
in the following instances:
Visibility is poor, e.g. due to snow, rain, fog,
R
heavy spray, greatly varying ambient light or
strong shadows on the road.
There is glare, e.g. from oncoming traffic,
R
direct sunlight or reflections.
Driving and parking 191
Insufficient road illumination.
R
The windshield is dirty, fogged up, damaged or
R
covered in the vicinity of the camera, e.g. by a
sticker.
No, or several, unclear lane markings are pres-
R
ent for one lane, or the markings change
quickly, for example, in construction areas or
at intersections.
The lane markings are worn away, dark or cov-
R
ered up, e.g. by dirt or snow.
If the distance to the vehicle in front is too
R
short and thus the lane markings are not
detected.
The road is narrow and winding.
R
There are obstacles in the lane or projecting
R
out into the lane, such as object markers.
The system does not provide assistance in the fol-
lowing situations:
On very tight bends and when turning.
R
When crossing intersections.
R
At traffic circles or toll stations.
