Driver Alert Control
The Driver Alert Control (DAC) function is designed to help alert the driver to erraticbehavior, e.g. if the driver is distracted orshowing signs of fatigue.
The objective of DAC is to detect slowly dete- riorating driving behavior and is primarilyintended to be used on major roads. The func-tion is not intended for use in city traffic. DAC is activated when the vehicle's speed exceeds 65 km/h (40 mph) and remainsactive as long as speeds are above 60 km/h(37 mph).
DAC detects the vehicle's position in the traffic lane.
A camera monitors the traffic lane's marker lines and compares the direction of the roadwith the driver's movements of the steeringwheel.
The vehicle is moving erratically in the lane.
If driving behavior becomes considerably erratic, thedriver will be alerted by thissymbol in the instrumentpanel, an audible signal and the message
Time for a
break.
If the vehicle is equipped with Sensus Navigation * and the Rest Stop Guidancefunction is activated, suggestions will also be provided for suitable places to take a break. The warning will be repeated after a short time if driving behavior does not improve.
WARNING
Driver Alert Control must not be used to extend a period of driving. The drivershould plan in breaks at regular intervalsand make sure they are well rested.
WARNING
An alarm from Driver Alert Control should be taken very seriously since a sleepy driveris often not aware of their own condition. If the alarm sounds or you feel fatigued:
Stop the vehicle safely as soon as pos- sible and rest.
Studies have shown that it is just as dan- gerous to drive while tired as it is to driveunder the influence of alcohol or otherstimulants.

Driver Alert Control limitations
Driver Alert Control (DAC) functionality may be reduced in certain situations.
In certain situations, the system may provide a warning even if it has not detected a change indriving behavior, e.g.: in strong crosswinds
on grooved road surfaces.
WARNING
In certain cases, driving behavior might not be affected despite the driver's fatigue – when using the Pilot Assist
* function –
resulting in the driver not getting a warning from DAC. It is therefore very important to always stop and take a break at the slightest signof fatigue, regardless of whether the func-tion has issued a warning or not.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain generallimitations.

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.

Park Assist *
The Park Assist function can help the driver when maneuvering in tight spaces by indicat-ing distances to obstacles using audible sig-nals and graphics in the center display.
Display view showing obstacle zones and sensor sectors.
The center display shows an overview of the vehicle in relation to objects that have beendetected. The marked sector indicates where the obsta- cle is located. The closer the vehicle symbol isto a marked sector forward/rearward, thecloser the detected obstacle is to your vehicle. The side sectors change color as the distance between the vehicle and an object decreases. The audible signals will also speed up the closer the obstacle is to the vehicle. The vol- ume of the audio system will be automaticallylowered. Audible signals for obstacles in front and to the sides of the vehicle are active when thevehicle is moving but will cease after the vehi-cle has been stationary for approx. 2 seconds.Audible signals for obstacles behind the vehi-cle will remain active even when the vehicle isstationary. If a detected obstacle is within approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from the front or rear of the vehicle, thetone will become constant and the active sen-sor's field closest to the vehicle symbol will befilled in. At distances within approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) from an obstacle to the sides of the vehicle, anrapid pulsing signal will be given and theactive sector fields will change color fromORANGE to RED. The volume of the Park Assist audible signals can be adjusted while the signal is being givenusing the
