If the centrifugal force is too high in a

bend, the system slows down the

vehicle slightly. This braking level is

not designed to avoid spinning-off the

bend. The driver is responsible for

reducing the selected speed before

entering a bend and in general to

adapt the speed to the road type and

to existing speed limits.

While entering or exiting a motorway,

adaptive cruise control may lose the

vehicle ahead and accelerate up to

the set speed. For this reason,

decrease the set speed before the

exit or before the entry.

9 Warning

Do not use the adaptive cruise

control on steep hill roads.

System performance on hills depends

on vehicle speed, vehicle load, traffic

conditions and the road incline. It may

not detect a vehicle in your path while

driving on hills. On steep hills, you

may have to use the accelerator

Front-rear parking assist

The front-rear parking assist

measures the distance between the

vehicle and obstacles in front and

behind the vehicle. It informs and

warns the driver by giving audible

signals and display indication.

The system operates with ultrasonic

parking sensors in the rear and front

bumper.

Activation

Depending on version the system is

ready to operate when the LED in the

parking assist button e is not

illuminated. The state of the system is

memorised when the ignition is

switched off.

When a forward gear has been

engaged, the front parking assist is

triggered, as soon as an obstacle is

detected in the front and the speed of

the vehicle is below 10 km/h.

It uses two different audible signals

for the front and rear monitoring

areas, each with a different tone

frequency.

When the reverse gear has been

engaged, the front parking assist is

triggered additionally to the rear

parking assist.

After engaging the reverse gear, an

Centre. A message is displayed in the

Driver Information Centre and a

warning chime sounds.

Indication

As soon as an obstacle gets closer to

the vehicle, an audible signal is given

and the symbol 1 may flash. The

interval between the sounds

becomes shorter as the vehicle gets

closer to that obstacle. When the

distance is less than approx. 30 cm,

the sound is continuous.

In the case of a permanent fault, seek

the assistance of a workshop.

9 Warning

Audible signals are given via front or

rear loudspeakers depending on

which detected obstacle is nearest to

the vehicle.

If the vehicle stops for more than

three seconds, if the automatic

transmission is in P position, or if no

further obstacles are detected, no

audible signals are given.

Additionally, the distance to rear and

front obstacles is displayed by

changing distance lines in the Info

Display 3 87.

Under certain circumstances,

various reflective surfaces on

objects or clothing as well as

external noise sources may cause

the system to fail to detect

obstacles.

Lane keep assist

In the event of a fault, C appears in

the Driver Information Centre,

accompanied by a display message

and a warning chime. Seek the

assistance of a workshop.

Lane keep assist supports the driver

to avoid unintended leaving of the

lane. The front camera observes road

edges, as well as the lane markings

between which the vehicle is driving.

If the vehicle approaches a road edge

or a lane marking, the steering wheel

is gently turned so that the vehicle

turns back into the lane. The driver

will notice a turning movement of the

steering wheel. Turn steering wheel

in same direction, if the system does

not steer sufficiently. Turn steering

wheel gently into opposite direction, if

lane change is intended.

Note

Lane departure warning 3 238.

The system may be switched off if it

detects lanes which are too narrow,

too wide or too curved.

Activation

Unintended lane departure is not

assumed by the system when the turn

lights are operated and during few

seconds after turn lights have been

switched off.

If the system detects that the steering

wheel is not held permanently, it

interrupts the correction after a few

seconds.

When hands-off driving is detected

during a correction a warning

message appears in the Driver

Information Centre, accompanied by

a warning chime. Every further

hands-off detection prolongs the

warning chime duration.

A lane departure warning in the Driver

Information Centre alerts when the

system cannot hold the vehicle within

the lane and immediate driver´s

action is required.

Following preconditions have to be

fulfilled that the system corrects:

●

vehicle speed must be between

65 km/h and 180 km/h

●

the turn lights are not activated

the electronic stability control is

activated and not in operation

●

no plug is connected to the power

outlet of the trailer hitch

no dynamic driving, i.e. pressure

A warning message may appear

when the vehicle is travelling in a long

straight lane on a smooth road

surface even if the driver is holding

the steering wheel properly.

Deactivate the system if the system is

disturbed by tar marks, shadows,

road cracks, temporary or

construction lane markings, or other

road imperfections.

Fault

has full responsibility to control the

vehicle and is always required to

keep the hands on the steering

wheel while driving.

Using the system while towing a

trailer or on slippery roads could

cause loss of control of the vehicle

and a crash. Switch the system off.

In the event of a fault, a and C

appear in the Driver Information

Centre, accompanied by a display

message and a warning chime. Seek

the assistance of a workshop.

9 Warning

Always keep your attention on the

road and maintain proper vehicle

position within the lane, otherwise

vehicle damage, injury or death

could occur.

The system may not keep the

vehicle in the lane or give an alert,

The system assists the driver in

managing the steering,

acceleration and braking within

the limits of the laws of physics

Driving and operating

Advanced lane keep assist is an

enhancement of the lane keep assist

system.

Thus, the current position of the

vehicle within the lane is kept.

When the vehicle is steered by the

system, O illuminates green in the

Driver Information Centre.

However, the control of the vehicle

can be taken over at any time by the

driver. Therefore, the driver needs to

apply some additional force when

turning the steering wheel.

If the system detects that the driver is

not holding the steering wheel firmly

enough, it triggers a series of gradual

alerts. If the interruption takes too

long, the system will be deactivated.
