tiredness.
Fig. 18 On the instrument cluster display: Driver Alert System.
Function and operation
The Driver Alert System determines the driving behaviour at the beginning of a journey and uses it
to evaluate the tiredness of the driver. This is compared to the behaviour of the driver while actually
driving. If the system detects that the driver may be tired, an acoustic warning signal will sound and
a message will appear in the instrument cluster display ⇒ Fig. 18. The message in the instrument
cluster display is displayed for about five seconds and may be repeated once. The last displayed
message is saved by the system.
The message on the instrument cluster display can be switched off by pressing the
button on the wiper lever or the button on the multifunction steering
wheel ⇒ Instrument cluster operation. The message can be displayed again on the instrument
cluster display using the multifunction display ⇒ Warning and information messages.
Functional limitations
The driving behaviour can be evaluated only when the speed is above 60 km/h (37 mphyf X S W R
