vicinity, provides assistance when the vehicle is
changing lanes.

ing on the vehicle's equipment, when driving
forwards on multi-lane motorways included in
the Infotainment system's navigation data, and
when travelling faster than 90 km/h.
Travel Assist must also be activated.

You can activate and deactivate lane change
assist in the Infotainment system.

Activating lane change assist while driving
1. Press the
button.
The instrument cluster display shows the
arrows in your own lane.
Changing lanes
If the system detects no objects in the detec-
tion field of the sensor system and an assisted
lane change to an adjacent lane is possible, the
corresponding lane is shown in the instrument
cluster display next to the driver's own lane.
1. When the convenience turn signal is ac-
tivated on the desired side, the vehicle
changes lane. A message is also displayed.
When changing lanes, the vehicle automati-
cally activates the turn signal on the corre-
sponding side. Once the lane change is com-
plete, the turn signal automatically switches
off.
WARNING
The sensor system cannot reliably detect all
objects in the surroundings and operates ex-
clusively within the limits of the system. If you
use the lane change assist irresponsibly, ac-
cidents and serious injuries can occur. The
system is not a replacement for driver aware-
ness.
●
Before changing lanes, make sure it is safe
to do so. In particular, rapidly approaching
objects may not be detected in time.
●
Keep your hands on the steering wheel at
all times and be prepared to control your own
speed and direction of travel.
Turning off the lane change assist
