Limits of side protection
The system only displays sta-
tionary obstacles that were pre-
viously detected by sensors
while passing them.
The system does not detect
whether an obstacle moves later
on. If the vehicle is stationary,
the markings are shown in black
after a certain time. The area
next to the vehicle must be
newly captured.
