Emergency Assist
How it works
Emergency Assist can detect whether
there is inactivity by the driver and can au-
tomatically keep the car within the lane
and stop it altogether if necessary. This
way the system can actively help avoid an
accident or reduce its consequences.
Emergency Assist uses the same sensors as
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane As-
sist. Therefore, carefully read the information
›››
about the ACC
page 247
and the Lane
›››
Assist
page 253
and take into account the
limitations of the systems and the indications
given in the information.
If the Emergency Assist detects that the driver
does not perform any activity, it requests that
the driver take control of the vehicle. To do
this, it emits optical and acoustic warnings
and causes braking jolts. The seat belt is
tightened (depending on the equipment). The
system slows down the vehicle and keeps it in
its lane.
You can cancel the adjustment at any time
by moving the steering wheel, over-acceler-
ating or braking.
While the emergency assistant is in operation,
other road users are warned as follows:
The hazard warning lights are switched on
●
soon after.
The following happens as soon as the vehicle
stops:
The electronic parking brake is activated.
