era :which is attached behind the top of the

before you leave your lane unintentionally. This function is available in the range between
40 mph and 120 mph (60 km/h and 200 km/h).

over alane marking. It will warn you by means of
intermittent vibration in the steering wheel for
up to 1.5 seconds.
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Lane Keeping Assist may not always clearly

In this case, Lane Keeping Assist may:
Rgive an unnecessary warning
Rnot give awarning
There is arisk of an accident.
Always pay particular attention to the traffic
situation and stay in lane, in particular if

return the vehicle to the original lane. There is
ar isk of an accident.
You should always steer, brake or accelerate
yourself, in particular if warned by Lane Keep-
ing Assist.
If you fail to adapt your driving style, Lane Keep-
ing Assist can neither reduce the risk of an acci-
dent nor override the laws of physics. Lane
Keeping Assist cannot take into account the
road, traffic and weather conditions. Lane Keep- ing Assist is merely an aid. You are responsible
for the distance to the vehicle in front,f or vehi-
cle speed, for braking in good time and for stay-
ing in your lane.
The Lane Keeping Assist does not keep the vehi-
cle in the lane.
The system may be impaired or may not function
if:
Rthere is poor visibility, e.g. due to insufficient
illumination of the road, or due to snow, rain,
fog or spray
Rthere is glare, e.g. from oncomingt raffic, the
sun or reflection s(e.g. when the road surface
is wet)
Rthe windshield is dirty, fogged up, damaged or
covered, for instancebyas ticker, in the vicin-
ity of the camera
