Lane Assist with lane centring guide
The Lane Centring Guide function is inten-
ded to keep the vehicle in the centre of the
lane.
If the driver has a tendency to veer slightly off
centre in the lane, the system adapts to driver
preferences.
The Lane Centring Guide function is acti-
vated/deactivated in the Easy Connect sys-
tem using the button > SETTINGS function

Automatic deactivation: the Lane Assist sys-
tem can be automatically deactivated if
there is a system malfunction. The control
lamp disappears.
Hands-Off Function
In the absence of steering wheel activity the
system alerts the driver with acoustic signals
and a text message on the dash panel asking
to actively take over the steering.
If the driver does not react to this, the system
also alerts the driver with a little shaking mo-
tion through the brakes and, if the vehicle has
it, activates the Emergency Assist function

page 297.
In vehicles without Emergency Assist, the
adaptive lane guidance function will be disa-
bled after the corresponding warnings to the
driver.
