Steering assistance with brake intervention
Intervention with steering assistance and braking
Brake intervention helps in situations where
steering assistance alone is not sufficient. The
brake force is adapted automatically depend-
ing on the situation at the time of road run-off.
The function is active within the speed range
65-140 km/h (40-87 mph) on roads with
clearly visible lane markings/lines.
A camera scans the edges of the road and the
painted side markings. If the car is about to
leave the side of the road, the car is steered
back onto the road and if the steering inter-
vention is not enough to avoid run-off, the
brakes are also activated.
However, the function does not intervene with
either steering assistance or brake interven-
tion if the direction indicators are used. And if
the function detects that the driver is actively
364
driving the car, activation of the function will
be delayed.

Steering assistance upon risk of
head-on collision
Steering assistance has a number of subfunc-
tions. Steering assistance upon risk of head-
on collision can help a distracted driver who
does not notice that the car is heading into
the opposite lane.
The function can assist by guiding the car back to its
own lane.
