camera (/ page 218). It ser vesto protect you
against unintentionally leaving your lane. You will be
warned byvibration pulses in the steering
wheel and guided bya course-co rrecting brake
application back into your lane.
Ac tive Lane Keeping Assist is available in the
speed range between 60 km/h and 200 km/h.
Ac tive Lane Keeping Assist can neither reduce the
ri sk of an accident if youfa ilto adapt your driving
style nor override the la wsof ph ysics. It cannot
ta ke into account road, weather or tra1c condi-

Yo u are responsible for maintaining a safe dis-
ta nce totheve hicle in front, forve hicle speed, for
braking in good time and for st aying in lane.
The status of Active Lane Keeping Assist is dis-
pla yed in the on-board computer:

active and operating.
R Ã (gre y): Active Lane Keeping Assist is
active but not operating.
R ·: Active Lane Keeping Assist is deactiva-
