Lane Keeping System (Lane Assist)
Introduction
Lane Assist helps the driver to stay in a
lane, within the system limitations. This
function is not suitable for, and not
designed for, autonomously keeping
your vehicle in a lane.
If the system detects that the vehicle is coming too close to a lane marker, Lane Assist warns the driver with corrective
steering. The driver can override the corrective steering at any time.
Speed range
Lane Assist is ready to take control (active system status) when a lane marking is detected within the system limits between
approx. 65 km/h (approx. 40 mph) and approx. 215 km/h (approx. 135 mph).
WARNING
Lane Assist is not a replacement for the driver's attention and works only within the system limitations. Lane Assist cannot
detect all driving situations and may not react, may react with a delay, or may react in a way that is not desired. If you are
careless, there is a risk of accidents, serious injuries and death.
Always stay attentive and do not rely solely on the system. The driver is always responsible for keeping the vehicle
within the lane.
Observe the system limitations ⇒ Lane Assist system limitations .
Always adapt your speed and distance to vehicles driving ahead based on the visual, weather, road, and traffic
conditions.
Always keep your hands on the steering wheel so that you are prepared to steer at any time.
Override immediately by steering if the system intervenes when it should not.
Pay attention to indicators in the instrument cluster display and respond to the prompts accordingly when the traffic
situation allows.
Lane Assist system limitations
Please read the introductory information and heed the Warnings and Notice ⇒
Introduction.
Limits of the sensor system
Lane Assist detects lane markings with the camera behind the windshield.
Observe the limits of the camera ⇒ Limits of the sensor system . Always be attentive and intervene yourself if necessary!
Lane markings not detected or not correctly recognized
Lane Assist does not correctly detect all lane markings. If lane markings are not detected or if markings are incorrectly
detected as lane markings, Lane Assist may fail to intervene when it should or may intervene when not desired. In addition to
the situations specified in the camera limitations, this may also occur in the following situations, among others:
If lane markings are not present.
When the driving style is very dynamic.
When not on highways or well-developed roads.
On poor road surfaces, road structures or objects.
