limitations of the systems and the indications
contained therein.
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 horn sounds (depending on the speed).
●
As soon as the vehicle stops, the following oc-
curs:
All doors are unlocked.
●
The interior lighting comes on.
●
Depending on the equipment, an emergen-
●
cy call (eCall) is made.
The electronic parking brake is activated.

●
due to weather factors, e.g. snow, or deter-
gent residue or some coating. Clean the
windscreen.
The visibility of the camera is diminished
●
due to accessories or adhesives. Leave the
area around the camera's field of vision free.

WARNING
The smart technology fitted into the Emer-
gency Assist cannot overcome the limits
imposed by the laws of physics; it only
works within the limits of the system. The
driver is responsible for driving the vehicle.
Adapt your speed and safety distance to
●
the vehicle in front of you at all times to suit
the visibility, weather, road and traffic con-
ditions.
The Emergency Assist cannot always
●
avoid accidents or serious injuries by itself.
If possible, do not wear gloves while driv-
●
ing. The system could interpret that there is
no driving activity.
If the radar sensor or the camera are cov-
●
ered or have been altered or damaged, the
system may intervene on the brakes or on
the direction in an inappropriate manner.
The Emergency Assist does not react to
●
people or animal or vehicles crossing your
path or which approach you head-on in the
same lane.
