This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Driving with the lane change system
⇒ Rear Traffic Alert
⇒ Troubleshooting
The lane change system with Rear
Traffic Alert provides assistance for the
driver when checking for traffic behind
the vehicle.
Radar sensors monitor the area behind the vehicle ⇒ Vehicle overviews. The system measures the
distance and speed difference in relation to other vehicles and informs the driver by means of visual
signals in the exterior mirrors.
The intelligent technology used in Emergency Assist cannot overcome the laws of
physics, and functions only within the limits of the system. The driver is always
responsible for controlling the vehicle.
•Adapt your speed and distance from the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road
and traffic conditions.
•Your hands should always be on the steering wheel so that you can steer at any time.
•Emergency Assist cannot prevent accidents and serious injuries on its own.
•If the camera's field of view is dirty, covered or damaged, the function of the lane
keeping system may be impaired.
•Emergency Assist does not react to persons, animals or vehicles crossing or
approaching in the same lane.
