When ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated, the
é symbol appears in the multifunction
display in the assistance graphic display.
When ATTENTION ASSIST has been deactiva-
ted, it is automatically reactivated after the
engine has been stopped. The sensitivity
selected corresponds to the last selection
activated (standard/sensitive).
Warning in the multifunction display
If fatigue or increasing lapses in concentra-
tion are detected, a warning appears in the
multifunction display:
Take a Break!
In addition to the message shown in the mul-
tifunction display, you will then hear a warn-
ing tone.
If necessary, take a break.
X
Confirm the message by pressing the a
X
button on the steering wheel.
On long journeys, take regular breaks in good
time to allow yourself to rest properly. If you
do not take a break and ATTENTION ASSIST
continues to detect increasing lapses in con-
centration, you will be warned again after
15 minutes at the earliest. This will only hap-
pen if ATTENTION ASSIST still detects typical
indicators of fatigue or increasing lapses in
concentration.
If a warning is output in the multifunction dis-
play, COMAND performs a service station
search. You can select a service station and
navigation to this service station will then
begin. This function can be activated and
deactivated in COMAND.
Traffic Sign Assist
General notes
Traffic Sign Assist displays the maximum
speed permitted to the driver in the instru-
ment cluster. The data and general traffic reg-
ulations stored in the navigation system are
used to determine the current speed limit.
Attention Assist:
Driving systems
As Traffic Sign Assist is a map-based system,
traffic signs put up temporarily (e.g. near
roadworks) are not detected.
If a traffic sign that is relevant to your vehicle
is passed, the display of the speed limits is
updated.
Traffic signs with a restriction indicated by an
additional sign (e.g. in wet conditions) are
also shown.
The traffic signs are only displayed with the
restrictions if:
the regulation must be observed with the
R
restriction, or
Traffic Sign Assist is unable to determine
R
whether the restriction applies
If Traffic Sign Assist is unable to determine a
maximum permitted speed from any of the
available sources, no speed limit is displayed
in the instrument cluster either.
Traffic Sign Assist is not available in all coun-
tries. In this case, symbol : is shown in the
assistance graphic display (
Important safety notes
Traffic Sign Assist is only an aid and is not
always able to correctly display speed limits.
Traffic signs always have priority over the
Traffic Sign Assist display.
The system may be either functionally
impaired or temporarily unavailable if the
information in the digital street map of the
navigation system is incorrect or out of date.
