ATTENTION ASSIST

Important safety notes

ATTENTION ASSIST is only an aid to the

driver. It might not always recognize fatigue

or increasing inattentiveness in time or fail to

recognize them at all. The system is not a

substitute for a well-rested and attentive

driver.

General notes

ATTENTION ASSIST helps you during long,

monotonous journeys, such as on highways.

It is active in the range between 50 mph

(80 km/h) and 112 mph (180 km/h).
If ATTENTION ASSIST detects typical

indicators of fatigue or increasing lapses in

concentration on the part of the driver, it

suggests you take a break.
ATTENTION ASSIST assesses your level of

fatigue or lapses in concentration by taking

the following criteria into account:

R

your personal driving style, e.g. steering

characteristics

R

journey details, e.g. time of day and length

of journey

The functionality of ATTENTION ASSIST is

restricted and warnings may be delayed or

not occur at all:

R

if the road condition is poor, e.g. if the

surface is uneven or if there are potholes

R

if there is a strong side wind

R

if you have adopted a sporty driving style

with high cornering speeds or high rates of

acceleration

R

if you are predominantly driving slower

than 50 mph (80 km/h) or faster than

112 mph (180 km/h)

R

if you are currently using COMAND or

making a telephone call with it

R

if the time has been set incorrectly

R

in active driving situations, such as when

you change lanes or change your speed
