Lane Keeping Assist
Function of Lane Keeping Assist
Lane Keeping Assist monitors the area in front of
your vehicle with multifunction camera :. It
should protect you from leaving your lane unin-
tentionally. You will also be warned by a vibra-
tion of the steering wheel.
You will be warned by a pulsating vibration in the
steering wheel, if the following conditions are
met:
if Lane Keeping Assist detects lane markings.
R
if a front wheel drives over a lane marking.
R
If you fail to adapt your driving style, Lane Keep-
ing Assist can neither reduce the risk of accident
nor override the laws of physics. It cannot take
into account road, weather or traffic conditions.
Lane Keeping Assist is only an aid. You are
responsible for the safe distance to the vehicle
in front, for vehicle speed, braking in good time
and for staying in your lane.
System limitations
The system may be impaired or may inoperative
in the following situations:
if there is poor visibility, e.g. due to insuffi-
R
cient illumination of the road, if there are
highly variable shade conditions or in rain,
snow, fog or spray
if there is glare, e.g. from oncoming traffic,
R
direct sunlight or reflections
if the windscreen in the area of the multifunc-
R
tion camera is dirty, or if the camera is misted
up, damaged or covered
there are no lane markings, or several unclear
R
lane markings for one lane are present, e.g.
around construction sites
if the lane markings are worn away, dark or
R
covered up
