Lane Keeping Aid - operation

Lane Keeping Aid is complemented in the
combined instrument panel with intuitive
graphics in different situations. Here are some
examples:
NOTE
LKA is temporarily deactivated for as long
as the direction indicator is switched on.
LKA "sees" the following side lines.
If Lane Keeping Aid is active and
detects/"sees" the side lines, the LKA symbol
07
indicates this with WHITE lines.
•
GREY side line - Lane Keeping Aid does
not see a line on that side of the car.
*

Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.

Lane Keeping Aid - limitations

Lane Keeping Aid's camera sensor has limita-
tions in a similar way to the human eye.
For more information, see Collision warning
system* - camera sensor limitations (p. 230)
and (p. 229).
NOTE
In certain demanding situations Lane
assistance may have difficulty assisting the
driver in the right way - in which case it is
recommended to deactivate the function.
Examples of such situations may be:
•
roadworks
•
winter road conditions
•
poor road surface
•
very sporty driving style
•
poor weather with reduced visibility.
Hands on the steering wheel
In order for Lane Keeping Aid to operate, the
driver must have his/her hands on the steer-
ing wheel. LKA continually monitors this. If
hands are not detected on the steering wheel
then a text message is shown, prompting the
driver to actively steer the car.
If the driver does not follow the request to
begin steering then Lane Keeping Aid goes
into standby mode and will remain in this
