Driving and operating
185
driver is based on the trajectory
variations of the vehicle compared to
the lane markings.
The system cannot replace the need
for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Taking a break is recommended as
soon as feeling tired or at least every
two hours. Do not drive when feeling
tired.
The system is automatically activated
when ignition is switched on.
If the trajectory of the vehicle
suggests a certain level of
drowsiness or inattention by the
Driving time alert
driver, the system triggers the first
level of alert. The driver is notified by
a message and an audible signal is
given.
After three first level alerts, the
system triggers a new alert with a
message, accompanied by a more
pronounced audible signal.
In certain driving conditions such as
poor road surface or strong winds
etc., the system may give alerts
independent of the driver's level of
vigilance.
The driver gets notified by a pop-up
reminder symbol € in the Driver
Information Centre simultaneously
with an acoustic alert if the driver has
not taken a break after two hours of
driving at a speed above 43 mph. The
alert is repeated hourly until the
vehicle is stopped, no matter how
vehicle speed evolves.
