Active Lane Keeping Assist monitors the area in
front of your vehicle by means of a multifunction
camera ( page 155). It serves to protect you
/
against unintentionally leaving your lane. You will
be warned by vibration pulses in the steering
wheel and guided back into your lane by a course-
correcting brake application.
Active Lane Keeping Assist is available in the
®
speed range between 37 mph (60 km/h) and
124 mph (200 km/h).
Active Lane Keeping Assist can neither reduce the
risk of an accident if you fail to adapt your driving
style nor override the laws of physics. It cannot
take into account road, weather or tra c condi-
t Assist or t or
tions. Active Lane Keeping Assist is only an aid.
You are responsible for maintaining a safe dis-
tance, for vehicle speed, for braking in good time
and for staying in lane.
If a lane-correcting brake application occurs, dis-
play 1 will appear on the instrument display.
The system does not apply the brake on the corre-
sponding side if you activate the turn signal indi-
cator.
