cannot take into account road, weather or traffic
conditions. Active Lane Keeping Assist is only an
aid. You are responsible for maintaining a safe

speed, for braking in good time and for staying
in lane.
Active Lane Keeping Assist can bring the vehicle
back into the lane with a lane-correcting brake
application. In the case of a broken lane marking
being detected, a brake application will only be
made if a vehicle has been detected in the adja‐
cent lane. Oncoming traffic can be detected.
Active Lane Keeping Assist is available in the
speed range between 60 km/h and 200 km/h.
