Operation
Information messages
WARNING
For the driving ability is always the driver's responsibility. Never drive if you
■
feel tired.
The system may not detect all cases where a break is needed.
■
Therefore, take regular, sufficient breaks during long trips.
■
There will be no system warning during the so-called micro-sleep.
■
Note
In some situations, the system may evaluate the driving incorrectly and thus
■
mistakenly recommend a break (e.g. sporty driving, adverse weather conditions or
poor road conditions).

The fatigue detection system is designed primarily for motorway driving.
