Activating ATTENTION ASSIST X

board computer (Y page 236).
The system determines the attention level
of the driver depending on the setting
selected:
Standard selected: the sensitivity with
which the system determines the attention
level is set to normal.
Sensitive selected: the sensitivity is set
higher. The attention level detected by Atten- tion Assist is adapted accordingly and the
driver is warned earlier.
When ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated, the À symbol and OFF appear in the multi-
function display in the assistance display
when the engine is running.
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

typical indicators of fatigue or increasing lap-
ses in concentration.

issued in the multifunction display, a service
station search is performed in COMAND. You
can select a service station and navigation to this service station will then begin. This func- tion can be activated and deactivated in
