First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
The Driver Alert System informs the driver if their driving shows signs of tiredness.

Fig. 13 On the instrument cluster display: Driver Alert System symbol.
Function and operation
The Driver Alert System determines the driving behaviour of the driver at the start of a journey and
uses this to calculate a fatigue assessment. This is continuously compared with the current
behaviour of the driver while driving. If the system detects that the driver may be tired, an acoustic
warning signal will sound and a symbol Fig. 13will be displayed on the instrument cluster display
as a visual indication in combination with a supplementary text message. The message in the
instrument cluster display is displayed for about five seconds and may be repeated once. The last
displayed message is saved by the system.
The message on the instrument cluster display can be switched off by pressing the
button on the wiper lever or the button on the multifunction steering wheel Operating the
instrument clustere can be displayed again on the instrument cluster display using the
multifunction display W
Function conditions
The driving behaviour can be evaluated only when the speed is above 60 km/h (37 mph) up to
approximately 200 km/h (125 mph).
Switching on and off
The Driver Alert System can be activated and deactivated in the vehicle settings in the Infotainment
system Vehicle settings menu
Function limitations
The Driver Alert System has system-related limitations. The following conditions can limit the
function of the Driver Alert System, or prevent it from working altogether:
Speeds below 60 km/h (37 mph).
Speeds above 200 km/h (125 mph).
Twisting roads.
Poor roads.
Adverse weather conditions.

Towing a heavy/long trailer.
The driver is distracted.
The Driver Alert System is reset in the following situations:
The ignition is switched off.
The driver seat belt is unfastened and the driver door is opened.
The vehicle has been stationary for longer than 15 minutes.
The Driver Alert System is automatically reset in the event of an extended period of driving at slow
speeds (speed less than 60 km/h (37 mph)). When the speed is increased again, the system
evaluates the driving behaviour once more.

WARNING
The intelligent technology used in the Driver Alert System cannot overcome the laws of physics, and
functions only within the limits of the system. Do not let the extra convenience afforded by the
Driver Alert System tempt you into taking any risks when driving. During a long trip, plan regular and
sufficient breaks.
The driver is responsible at all times for their fitness to drive.
Never drive a vehicle when you are tired.
The system cannot always detect the driver's level of alertness. Observe the information in the
Function limitations section.
In certain situations, the system may wrongly interpret intentional driving manoeuvres as a lack of
alertness from the driver.
No urgent warning will be given in the event of the phenomenon known as microsleep.
Observe the information in the instrument cluster display and act according to the commands.

The Driver Alert System has been developed for use only while driving on motorways and good
roads.

If there is a system fault, go to a qualified workshop and have the system checked.

Dynamic Road Sign Display (Sign Assist)

Fig. 14 On the instrument cluster display: examples of recognised speed limits and overtaking
restrictions with accompanying additional signs.
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
Dynamic Road Sign Display uses a camera in the base of the interior mirror to monitor standard road
signs and informs the driver of any detected speed limits or overtaking restrictions. Within the limits
of the system, the system also displays additional signs, e.g. temporary restrictions, signs related to
towing a trailer Trailer towingor restrictions in wet weather conditions. In some cases, the
system can also display the current speed limits on non-signposted routes.
Displays
In addition to speed limits and overtaking restrictions, Dynamic Road Sign Display also detects the
sign which indicates that all restrictions have been lifted on motorways and main roads in Germany.
In all other countries, the currently valid speed limit is displayed instead.
The road signs detected by Dynamic Road Sign Display are displayed on the instrument cluster
Fig. 14and in some cases also on the Infotainment system, depending on which version is
installed in the vehicle. In some equipment levels, a display is also shown on the Head-up Display
