Driving and operating167
Alerting the driver
The vehicle ahead control indicator A illuminates green in the instrument
cluster when the system has detected
a vehicle in the driving path.
The control indicator A changes to
yellow when the distance to a
preceding moving vehicle gets too
small or when approaching another
vehicle too rapidly.
Caution
The colour lighting of this control
indicator does not correspond to
local traffic laws on following
distance. The driver bears full
responsibility for maintaining safe
following distance according to
applicable traffic rules, weather
and road conditions etc. at all
times.
When the time to a potential collision
with a vehicle in front gets too small
and a collision is imminent, the
collision alert symbol pops-up in the
Driver Information Centre and the
driver gets notified by a flashing red
LED stripe which is projected on the
windscreen in the driver's field of
view.
Simultaneously a warning chime sounds. Depress the brake pedal and
steer the vehicle, if it is required by the
situation.
Deactivation The system can be deactivated.
Press V repeatedly until Forward
Collision Alert Off appears in the
Driver Information Centre.
If the forward collision alert was
deactivated, alert sensitivity is set to
"medium" when ignition is switched
on next time.
The settings "near", "medium" or "far" will be stored when the ignition is
switched off.

The lane keep assist is activated by
pressing a. The illuminated LED in
the button indicates that the system is switched on.
When the control indicator a in the
instrument cluster illuminates green,
the system is ready to assist.
The system is operable at vehicle
speeds between 37 mph and
112 mph and if lane markings are
available.
The system gently turns the steering
wheel and the control indicator a
changes to yellow, if the vehicle
approaches a detected lane marking
without using the turn signal in that
direction.
The system alerts by flashing a
together with three chimes, from the
respective direction, if the lane is
departed significantly.
The system can not operate when no
lane marking is detected.
If the system only detects lane
markings on one side of the road, it
will only assist for this side.
Lane keep assist detects hands-off
driving. In this case a message in the
Driver Information Centre pops up
and a chime sounds as long as lane
keep assist detects hands-off driving.Deactivation
The system is deactivated by
pressing a, the LED in the button
extinguishes.

● Windscreen not clean or affected
by foreign items, e.g. stickers
● Close vehicles ahead
● Banked roads
● Winding or hilly roads
● Road edges
● Roads with poor lane markings
● Sudden lighting changes
● Adverse environmental conditions like heavy rain or
snow
● Vehicle modifications, e.g. tyres.
