below 60 km/h or above 200 km/h.
Activating ATTENTION ASSIST X
Activate ATTENTION ASSIST using the on-
board computer (Y page 249).
The system determines the attention level
of the driver depending on the setting
selected:
If Standard
Standard is selected: the sensitivity with
which the system determines the attention
level is set to normal.
If Sensitive
Sensitive is selected: the sensitivity is set
higher. The attention level detected by
ATTENTION ASSIST is adapted accordingly
and the driver is warned earlier.
When ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated, the é symbol appears in the multifunction
display in the assistance graphic display.
When ATTENTION ASSIST has been deactiva- ted, it is automatically reactivated after the
engine has been switched off. The sensitivity
selected corresponds to the last selection
activated (standard/sensitive).
Warning in the multifunction display If fatigue or increasing lapses in concentra-
tion are detected, a warning appears in the
multifunction display: ATTENTION ASSIST
ATTENTION ASSIST
Take a break!
Take a break! .
In addition to the message shown in the mul-
tifunction display, you will then hear a warn-
ing tone.
X If necessary, take a break.
X Confirm the message by pressing the a
button on the steering wheel.
On long journeys, take regular breaks in good
time that allow for adequate recuperation. If
you do not take a break and ATTEN-
TION ASSIST still detects increasing lapses in
concentration, you will be warned again after
15 minute sat the earliest. This will only hap-
pen if ATTENTION ASSIST still detects typical indicators of fatigue or increasing lapses in
concentration.
If a warning is output in the multifunction dis-
play, a service station search is performed in
COMAND Online. You can select a service
station and navigation to this service station
will then begin. This function can be activated
and deactivated in COMAND Online. Traffic Sign Assist
General notes Traffic Sign Assist displays the maximum
speed permitted and overtaking restrictions
to the driver in the instrument cluster. Driving onto a section of road in the wrong direction
triggers a warning. Traffic Sign Assist detects traffic signs with multifunction camera :
attached at the top of the windscreen. The
data and general traffic regulations stored in
the navigation system are also used to deter- mine the current speed limit.
If a traffic sign that is relevant to your vehicle
is passed, the display of the speed limits and
overtaking restrictions is updated.
The display can also be updated without a
visible traffic sign if:
R the vehicle changes roads (e.g. motorway
exit or slip road)
R a village or town boundary is passed which
is stored in the digital map
R the last traffic sign detected by the camera
has not been repeated Driving systems
