On the windscreen: field of vision of
the L ane Assist syst em camer
a. Using the camera located in the windscreen,
the L
ane Assist syst
em detects the possibl
e
lines dividing the l
anes. When the vehicle in-
voluntarily approaches a dividing line it has
detected, the system notifies the driver with a
corrective steering movement. The purpose is
not only to warn the driver, but also to keep
the vehicle inside the lane. This movement
can be over-regulated at any time.
No warning is produced with the turn signals
activated, given that the Lane Assist system
understands that a lane change is required. Control lamp "

WARNING
The smart technology incorporated into
the blind spot detector (BSD) with parking
assistance (RC T
A) 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 blind spot detection system or
the rear cross traffic alert are used negli-
gently or involuntarily. The system is not a
replacement for driver awareness.
