Activating ATTENTION ASSIST
XActivate ATTENTION ASSIST using the on-
board computer ( Ypage 203).
The system determines the attention level
of the driver depending on the setting
selected:
Selection
Standard: the sensitivity with
which the system determines the attention
level is set to normal.
Selection
Sensitive: the sensitivity is set
higher. The attention level detected by Atten- tion Assist is adapted accordingly and the
driver is warned earlier.
Vehicles with black and white multifunc-
tion display: when ATTENTION ASSIST is
activated, the multifunction display in the sta-
tus overview shows the Àsymbol.
Vehicles with color multifunction display: when ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated, the
multifunction display in the assistance
graphic shows the ésymbol.
When ATTENTION ASSIST has been deactiva-
ted, it is automatically reactivated after the
engine has been stopped. 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

On long journeys, take regular breaks in good
time to allow yourself to rest properly. If you
do not take a break and ATTENTION ASSIST still detects increasing lapses in concentra-
tion, you will be warned again after

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. You can select a service station
and navigation to this service station will then
begin. This function can be activated and

Blind Spot Assist
General notes
Blind Spot Assist monitors the areas on either
side of the vehicle that are not visible to the
driver with two lateral, rear-facing radar sen-
sors. A warning display in the exterior mirrors draws your attention to vehicles detected in
the monitored area. If you then switch on the corresponding turn signal to change lanes,
you will also receive a visual and audible col-
lision warning.
Blind Spot Assist supports you from a speed
of approximately 20 mph (30 km/ h).
Important safety notes
GWARNING
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.
