Active Steering Assist
▌Function of Active Steering Assist
Active Steering Assist is only available up to a
speed of 160 km/h. The system helps you to stay
in the centre of the lane by means of moderate
steering interventions. Depending on the speed
driven, Active Steering Assist uses the vehicles
ahead and lane markings as a reference.
%
Depending on the country, in the lower speed
range Active Steering Assist can use the sur-
Route-based
rounding traffic as a reference. Active Steer-
ing Assist can also assist when driving outside
the centre of the lane, forexample, to form an
emergency corridor.
If the detection of lane markings and vehicles
ahead is impaired, Active Steering Assist switches
to passive mode. The system provides no support
in this case.
