Passing assistance Passing assistance can assist the driver when passing other vehicles. The function can be used with Adaptive Cruise Control * or Pilot
Assist *.
How passing assistance worksWhen Adaptive Cruise Control or Pilot Assist is following another vehicle and you indicatethat you intend to pass that vehicle by using the turn signal 47
, the system will begin accel-
erating toward the vehicle ahead before your
vehicle has moved into the passing lane. The function will then delay a speed reduction to avoid early braking as your vehicleapproaches a slower-moving vehicle. The function remains active until your vehicle has passed the other vehicle.
WARNING
Please note that this function can be acti- vated in more situations than just passinganother vehicle, such as when a directionindicator is used to indicate a lane changeor before exiting to another road – the vehi-cle will then briefly accelerate.
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate drivingand help make it safer – it cannot han-dle all situations in all traffic, weatherand road conditions.
The driver is advised to read all sec-tions in the Owner's Manual about thisfunction to learn of its limitations,which the driver must be aware ofbefore using the function.
Driver support functions are not a sub-stitute for the driver's attention andjudgment. The driver is always respon-sible for ensuring the vehicle is drivenin a safe manner, at the appropriatespeed, with an appropriate distance toother vehicles, and in accordance withcurrent traffic rules and regulations.

Rear Collision Warning *59
The Rear Collision Warning 60
(RCW) function
can help the driver avoid rear-end collisions from vehicles approaching from behind.
The function can alert drivers of following vehi- cles of the risk of a collision by rapidly flashingthe turn signals. If, at a speed below 30 km/h (20 mph), the function detects that the vehicle is in dangerof being hit from behind, the seat belt tension-ers may tension the front seat belts. TheWhiplash Protection System will also be acti-vated in a collision. Immediately before a collision from behind, the function may also activate the brakes inorder to reduce the forward acceleration of thevehicle during the collision. However, thebrakes will only be applied if your vehicle isstationary. The brakes will be immediatelyreleased if the accelerator pedal is depressed. The function is automatically activated each time the engine is started.

limitations
In some situations, it may be difficult for Rear Collision Warning (RCW) to warn the driverof a collision risk.
This may be the case if: the vehicle approaching from the rear is detected at a late stage
the vehicle approaching from the rearchanges lanes at a late stage
NOTE
In certain markets RCW does
not warn
with the direction indicators due to local traffic regulations – in such cases, that partof the function is deactivated.
NOTE
The warning with direction indicators for Rear Collision Warning * is deactivated if
the collision warning distance in the City Safety function is set to the lowest level "
Late".
The seat belt tensioning and braking func- tions remain active.

The BLIS 62
function is designed to help pro-
vide assistance in heavy traffic with several lanes moving in the same direction by helpingthe driver to detect the presence of vehiclesin the "blind spot" area behind and to the sideof the vehicle.
Location of BLIS indicator light.
BLIS is a driver support system designed to alert the driver of:
vehicles in your "blind spot"
vehicles approaching rapidly in adjacentlanes.
BLIS overview
Blind spot zone
Rapidly approaching vehicle zone.
The system is designed to react to:
vehicles passing your vehicle
vehicles that are rapidly approaching your vehicle from behind.
When BLIS detects a vehicle in zone 1 or arapidly approaching vehicle in zone 2, an indi-cator light will illuminate in the relevant rear-view mirror and glow steadily. If the driverthen uses the turn signal on the side in whichthe warning has been given, the indicator lightwill become brighter and begin flashing. BLIS is active when your vehicle is traveling at a speed over 10 km/h (6 mph).

Steering assistance with braking
Intervention with steering assistance and braking.
Braking intervention assists in situations where steering assistance alone is not suffi-cient. Braking force is automatically adaptedaccording to the situation at the moment thevehicle begins to run off the road. The function is active at speeds between 65-140 km/h (40-87 mph) on roads withclearly visible traffic lane markings/lines. The system uses a camera to monitor the edges of the road and the painted side markerlines. If the vehicle is about to cross the edgeof the road, the function will attempt to steerthe vehicle back onto the road. If this is notsufficient to keep the vehicle on the road, thebrakes will also be applied. However, the function will not provide either
steering assistance or braking if the turn signal is used. The function will also not be activated if it detects that the driver is actively operatingthe vehicle.
