Driving
●
If the vehicle beha
ves differently than ex-
pected, interrupt the intervention of the
Emergency Assist by over-accelerating,
braking or moving the steering wheel.
●
Do not use Travel Assist or Lane Assist.
Have the system checked by a specialised
workshop.
Note
●
Automatic interventions by the Emergen-
cy Assist on the brakes may be interrupted
by pressing the accelerator or brake or by
moving the wheel.
●
Hazard warning lights that come on auto-
matically can be switched off by pressing
the accelerator or the break, moving the
steering wheel or pressing the hazard
warning light switch.
●
If this occurs, the Emergency Assist may
decelerate the vehicle until it comes to a
complete stop.
●
When the Emergency Assist is activated,
it is only available again after the ignition
has been switched off and back on again.
Lane departure warning (Side
Assist) with rear cross traffic
alert (RCTA) and door opening
warning (Exit Assist)*
Introduction
The lane departure warning (LCA) helps
detect tr
affic that is at the rear of the vehi-
cle.
The rear cross traffic alert (RCTA) helps
the driver when backing out of a parallel
parking spot and when manoeuvring.
Exit assist alerts the occupant of a possible
danger approaching from behind when
opening or when any of the vehicle’s doors
are open.
WARNING
The smart technology incorporated into
the lane departure warning (LCA) with rear
cross traffic alert (RCTA) and the door
opening warning included cannot over-
come the limits imposed by the laws of
physics; it only works within the limits of the
system. Accidents and severe injury may
occur if the lane departure warning or the
rear cross traffic alert are used negligently
or involuntarily. The system is not a re-
placement for driver awareness.
●
Adapt your speed and saf
e distance to
the vehicle in front of you at all times to suit
visibility, weather, road and traffic condi-
tions.
●
Keep your hands on the wheel at all times
to be ready to intervene in the steering at
any time.
●
Pay attention to the indicator lamps that
may come on in the external rear view mir-
rors and on the instrument cluster, and fol-
low any instructions they may give.
●
The lane departure warning could react
to any special constructions that might be
present to the sides of the vehicle, e.g. high
or irregular dividers. This may cause erro-
neous warnings.
●
Never use the lane departure warning on
unpaved roads. The lane departure warning
has been designed for use on paved roads.
●
Always pay attention to the vehicle's sur-
roundings.
●
The control lamps of the lane departure
warning may have limited functionality due
to solar radiation.
Note
If the lane departure warning with rear
cross traffic alert does not work as descri-
bed in this chapter, stop using it and con-
tact a specialised workshop.
