Limitations of steering assistanceduring collision risks from behind
The function may have limited functionality incertain situations and not intervene, e.g.:
for smaller vehicles such as motorcycles
if more than half of your vehicle has movedinto the adjacent lane
on roads/lanes with indistinct or no side lanemarkings
outside the speed range 60-140 km/h(37-87 mph)
when the power steering works at reducedpower - e.g. during cooling due to overheat-ing (see section "Speed-dependent steeringforce").
Functionality may also be reduced in other situa-tions, such as:
road work
winter driving conditions
narrow roads
poor road surfaces

bad weather with reduced visibility.
In these demanding driving conditions, the func-tion may not be able to properly assist the driver.In these situations, it is recommended that it isturned off.
