WARNING
Do not let the comfort afforded by the Fatigue
detection system tempt you into taking any
risks when driving. Take regular breaks, suffi-
cient in length when making long journeys.
The driver always assumes the responsibil-
●
ity of driving to their full capacity.
● Never drive if you are tired.
The system does not detect the tiredness of
●
the driver in all circumstances. Consult the in-
formation in the section
limitations.
● In some situations, the system may incor-
rectly interpret an intended driving manoeu-
vre as driver tiredness.
● No warning is given in the event of the ef-
fect called microsleep!
Please observe the indications on the in-
●
strument panel and act as is necessary.
Note
Fatigue detection has been developed for
●
driving on motorways and well paved roads
only.
If there is a fault in the system, have it
●
checked by a specialised workshop.
