Limitations for steering assistance
at risk of collision
In certain situations the function may have lim-
ited functionality and fail to intervene in the fol-
lowing cases, for example:
for small vehicles, such as motorcycles
•
if the majority of the car has steered into the
•
adjacent lane
on roads/in lanes with unclear or non-exis-
•
tent lane markings
outside the speed range 60-140 km/h
•
(37-87 mph)
as the steering servo for speed-dependent
•
steering wheel resistance is working at
reduced power – e.g. when cooling due to
overheating.
Other demanding situations can include:
road works
•
winter road conditions
•
narrow roads
•
poor road surface
•
a very "sporty" driving style
•
poor weather with reduced visibility.
•
In these demanding situations, the function may
have difficulty helping the driver correctly. In such
cases it is recommended to switch off this func-
tion.
NOTE
This function uses the car's camera and radar
units, which have certain general limitations.
