Active Steering Assist
Function of Active Steering Assist
Active Steering Assist is country-dependent and
only available for vehicles with the Driving Assis‐
tance Package.
Active Steering Assist is operational at speeds
up to 210 km/h and helps you to stay in the
centre of the lane by means of moderate steer‐
ing interventions. It uses the vehicle in front and
the lane markings as a reference depending on
the driven speed.
When the system is actively steering, the è
symbol is shown in green in the multifunction
display.
Steering and touch detection
The driver is required to keep their hands on the
steering wheel at all times and to be able to
intervene at any time. The driver must expect a
change from active to passive mode or vice
versa at any time.
