Driver assistance

Steering intervention request
If the lane departure warning intervenes multiple
times
when no steering activity is detected, the
steering intervention request will provide a warn-
ing using audio and visual signals. Take over the
steering and keep your hands on the steering
wheel so that you will be ready to steer at any
time. The system may no longer be ready to pro-
vide warnings after a short time, and it will only
become active again later.
If the driver does not take over steering, the lane
departure warning will no longer be ready to pro-
vide warnings. If the vehicle is equipped with
emergency assist and it is ready to function, it
will be activated > page 162.
Behavior when a turn signal is active
Applies to: Vehicles without side assist: The sys-
tem will not warn you before crossing a lane
marker line if you have activated the turn signal.
In this case, it assumes that you are changing
lanes intentionally.
Applies to: Vehicles with side assist: A noticeable
corrective steering movement will occur briefly
before the vehicle exits the lane if the turn signal
is activated, the lane departure warning is ready,
and a lane change has been classified as critical
by the system due to vehicles traveling beside
you or due to approaching vehicles. This will at-
tempt to keep your vehicle in the lane.

ZA WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 127.
— The system warns the driver that the vehicle
is leaving the lane using corrective steering.
The driver is always responsible for keeping
the vehicle within the lane.
— Corrective steering may not occur at all in
certain situations, such as during heavy
braking. Always be ready to intervene.
0} Tips
— Always keep your hands on the steering
wheel so you can be ready to steer at any
time. The driver is always responsible for

adhering to the regulations applicable in
the country where the vehicle is being oper-
ated.

steering or steering wheel vibrations if it de-
tects that you are passing another vehicle.

the maximum steering wheel angle.
Symbols
If 2/&9/< is displayed and the display area
represented by that symbol is not available, then
the camera on the that side is not available. The
power exterior mirrors may have been folded in
or a door or the luggage compartment lid may
have been opened.

detected with limitations may not be detect-
ed at all. Always monitor the traffic and the
vehicle's surroundings directly and do not
become distracted.

@) Note
— The orange orientation lines @ show the di-
rection the rear of the vehicle will be travel-
ing, based on the steering wheel angle. The
front of the vehicle swings out more than
the rear of the vehicle. Maintain plenty of
distance so that an exterior mirror or a cor-
ner of the vehicle does not collide with any
obstacles.
— Keep enough distance from the curb to
avoid damage to the rims.

on the rear of the vehicle when the luggage
compartment lid is completely closed. Make
sure any objects you may have mounted on
the luggage compartment lid do not block
the rearview camera.

accuracy of the orientation lines and blue
surfaces on the camera display decreases
when the vehicle is raised or lowered with
the air suspension.

and the sides* when trailer towing mode is
detected. The front sensors remain activat-
ed. The visual display switches to trailer
mode. There is no guarantee the functions
will be deactivated when using a retrofitted
trailer hitch.
