System limits

Personal responsibility
The system cannot serve as a substitute

for the driver's personal judgment of the course
of the road and the traffic situation.
In the event of a warning, do not jerk the steering
wheel, as you may lose control of the vehicle.◀

The system may not be fully functional in the
following situations:

In heavy fog, rain or snowfall.

In the event of worn, poorly visible, merging,
diverging, or multiple lane markings such as
in construction areas.

When lane markings are covered in snow,
ice, dirt or water.

In tight curves or on narrow lanes.

When the lane markings are covered by ob‐
jects.

When driving very close to the vehicle in
front of you.

When driving toward bright lights.

When the windshield in front of the interior
rearview mirror is fogged over, dirty or cov‐
ered with stickers, etc.

Malfunctions

Steering wheel vibration

Frequent activation of the steering wheel vibra‐
tion causes the system to overheat.
This causes the lane departure warning to be‐
come deactivated.
Let the system cool and reactivate it by pressing
the button.

Camera

The camera is located on the front of the interior
rearview mirror.
Keep the area in front of the interior rearview
mirror clear.

Active Blind Spot Detection*

The concept

Two radar sensors below the rear bumper mon‐
itor the area behind and next to the vehicle at
speeds above approx. 30 mph/50 km/h.
The system indicates whether there are vehicles
in the blind spot, arrow 1, or approaching from
behind on the adjacent lane, arrow 2.
The lamp in the exterior mirror housing lights up
dimly.

Before you change lanes after setting the turn
signal, the system issues a warning in the situa‐
tions described above.
The lamp in the housing of the exterior mirror
flashes and the steering wheel vibrates.
