Lane Keeping Assist

General notes
This feature warns the driver if a lane
marking is crossed inadvertently. Lane
Keeping Assist uses a camera : which is
affixed on the windscreen behind the rear
view mirror.
A warning may be given if a front wheel
passes over a lane marking. The corre-
sponding symbol flashes for a maximum of
five seconds in the display and a warning
tone sounds.

WARNING
The Lane Keeping Assist warning does not
return the vehicle to the original lane.
There is a risk of an accident.
Always steer, apply the brakes or acceler-
ate the vehicle yourself, especially if Lane
Keeping Assist alerts you.
If you fail to adapt your driving style, Lane
Keeping Assist can neither reduce the risk
of an accident nor override the laws of
physics. Lane Keeping Assist cannot take
into account road, weather or traffic con-
ditions. Lane Keeping Assist is only an
aid. You are responsible for the distance to
the vehicle in front, for vehicle speed, for
braking in good time, and for staying in
lane.
Lane Keeping Assist does not keep your
vehicle in its lane.
