ATTENTION ASSIST

Important safety notes

G

WARNING

The ATTENTION ASSIST is only an aid to the

driver. It might not recognize fatigue or

increasing inattentiveness in time or fail to

recognize them at all. The system cannot

substitute a rested and attentive driver.
Fatigue can cause you to recognize dangers

too late, to misjudge potential dangers, or to

react slower. Therefore, make sure to be

rested before and during your trip. Take rests

early enough and regularly, especially during

long trips. Failure to do so could cause you to

recognize dangers too late which could result

in an accident and serious injury to you and/

or others.

ATTENTION ASSIST helps you during long,

monotonous journeys such as on freeways

and interstate 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

driving conditions, e.g. time, driving time

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
