The Driver Alert System determines the driving behaviour of the driver at the start of a journey and
uses this to calculate a fatigue assessment. This is continuously compared with the current
behaviour of the driver while driving. If the system detects that the driver may be tired, an acoustic
warning signal will sound and a symbol ⇒ Fig. 13  will be displayed on the instrument cluster display
as a visual indication in combination with a supplementary text message. The message in the
