Blind Spot Assist

General notes
Blind Spot Assist uses a radar sensor system

to monitor the areas on both sides of your

vehicle. It supports you from a speed of

approximately 20 mph (30 km/h). A warning

display in the exterior mirrors draws your

attention to vehicles detected in the moni-

tored area. If you then switch on the corre-

sponding turn signal to change lanes, you will

also receive an optical and audible collision

warning. Blind Spot Assist uses sensors in the

rear bumper for monitoring purposes.

Important safety notes

G

WARNING

Blind Spot Assist does not react to:

R

vehicles overtaken too closely on the side,

placing them in the blind spot area

R

vehicles which approach with a large speed

differential and overtake your vehicle

As a result, Blind Spot Assist may not give

warnings in such situations. There is a risk of

an accident.
Always observe the traffic conditions care-

fully, and maintain a safe lateral distance.

Blind Spot Assist is only an aid. It may fail to

detect some vehicles and is no substitute for

attentive driving.

USA only:

This device has been approved by the FCC
