ECO Assist is only an aid. The driver isresponsi‐bleforkeeping a safe distance fromthevehiclein front,forvehicle speed andfor braking ingood time. The driver must bereadytobrake atall times irrespective of whetherthe systemintervenes.
The system may be impaired or may not functioninthefollowing situations:
RIfthere is poor visibility, e.g. duetoinsuffi‐cient illumination oftheroad, highlyvariableshade conditions,rain, snow,fog or heavyspray.
RIfthere isglare, e.g. from oncoming traffic,direct sunlight orreflections.
