166WARNING■ Lane Assist only operates as a support- it does absolve the driver of the re-
sponsibility to maintain full control over the vehicle's steering.■
Lane Assist only makes the driver away that the vehicle is approaching the
line between two lanes by means of a steering intervention. The driver retains
responsibility at all times for keeping the vehicle within the lane.
■
Lane Assist can help you keep the vehicle within the lane. However, it does
not steer the vehicle for you. The driver retains full responsibility for steering at all times.
■
The camera need not be able to detect all lane lines. A steering intervention
can only be made when the vehicle approaches a detected line between lanes.
■
Some objects on the road may be incorrectly detected as lines. As a result,
an incorrect steering intervention may take place.
■
The function of adaptive lane guidance Assist system may be restricted
when driving e.g. over rutted roads, on a slope, or if there are lateral winds.
■
Do not use the assist system in poor weather, e.g. black ice, fog, heavy rain –
risk of accident!
WARNINGThe detection capability of the camera may be limited by various external in-
fluences. In such cases, the assistant may not detect the line between two
lanes at all or not properly. The detection capability of the camera may be re- stricted in the following situations, for example.■
When visibility conditions are poor, e.g. fog, heavy rain, thick snowfall.
■
When driving around “sharp” bends.
WARNING (Continued)■ The camera is blinded by the sun.■The camera is blinded by the oncoming traffic.■
The viewing range of the camera is impeded by a vehicle traveling ahead.
■
The camera viewing range is obstructed by an obstacle.
CAUTION
Do not attach any stickers or similar objects to the windscreen to avoid impairing
the functions of the Assist system.
Note
■ The system is designed for driving on motorways and roads with adequate lon-
gitudinal markings.■
The system can detect both continuous and broken lines.

window for Lane Assist
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 164.
Lane Assist (From here on referred to only as the system), helps to keep the vehi-
cle within the lane.
The system detects the boundary lines of a lane using the camera » Fig. 147.
When the vehicle approaches a detected line between lanes, the system makes a
light movement of the steering wheel in the opposite direction to the boundary
line. This corrective steering intervention can be overridden at any time. 

If the turn signal is switched on prior to driving over the boundary line (e.g. whenmaking a turn), no steering intervention takes place when the vehicle approaches
the boundary line. The system regards the situation as an intended lane change.
The system can intervene when the following basic conditions are present. The system is activated.
The vehicle is travelling at more than 65 km/h.
The boundary lines are clearly visible (appropriate longitudinal markings).
The boundary line of at least one side of the lane is detected. The driver's hands are on the steering wheel.The lane is more than 2.5 m in width.
Adaptive lane assist
Adaptive lane assist helps to keep the vehicle in the position between the boun- dary lines selected by the driver, by means of steering intervention.
If the system detects only one boundary line, it will help to maintain the selectedproximity from said boundary line.
If the proximity to the detected boundary line is changed, the system quickly
adapts and maintains the newly-selected position.
Adaptive lane assist can be activated/deactivated in the Infotainment » operating
instructions for Infotainment , chapter Vehicle settings (CAR button) .
Activating/deactivating
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 164.
The system can be activated or deactivated in the Infotainment » Infotainment
manual , chapter Vehicle settings (CAR button) or in the MAXI DOTdis-
play » page 32 , Menu item wizard .

Traffic sign recognition does not warn about exceeding the maximum per-
mitted speed nor does it adjust the driving speed to the maximum speed!
