218Driving and operatingSystem limitations
Traffic sign assistant may not operate properly when:
● Vehicle speed is faster than 200 km/h.
● Driving on winding or hilly roads. ● During nighttime driving.
● The area of the windscreen, where the front camera is
located, is not clean or affected
by foreign items, e.g. stickers.
● Weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow.

The system is intended to help thedriver within a defined speed
range to discern certain traffic
signs. Do not ignore traffic signs
which are not displayed by the
system.
The system does not discern any other than the conventional traffic
signs that might give or end a
speed limit.
Do not let this special feature
tempt you into taking risks when
driving.
Always adapt speed to the road
conditions.
The driver assistance systems do not relieve the driver from full
responsibility for vehicle
operation.
Lane keep assist
Lane keep assist helps to avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. The front camera
observes the lane markings between
which the vehicle is driving. If the
vehicle approaches a lane marking, the steering wheel is gently turned to
position the vehicle back into the lane. Turn steering wheel in same
direction, if system steering is not
sufficient. Turn steering wheel gently
into opposite direction, if lane change is intended.
When crossing a lane marking
significantly, lane keep assist starts a
visual and acoustic warning.
Additionally, the status of the lane
keep assist is indicated on the Driver
Assistance page in the Driver
Information Center 3 111.
Unintended lane departure is
assumed
● without using turn lights● using the turn lights in the opposite direction of the lane
departure
● without braking
● without acceleration
● without active steering.
220Driving and operatingIf the system detects a lane, it
appears as a green dashed line, as
shown on the right side of the vehicle in the graphic above. This dashed line
becomes amber if the vehicle
approaches a detected lane marking
without the turn lights in that direction
has been used.
If the system intervenes by steering, a short amber line appears, as shown on the left side of the vehicle in the
graphic above.
Deactivation The system is deactivated by
pressing a; the LED in the button
extinguishes.
The system is deactivated
automatically when a trailer is
detected.
System limitations The system performance may not
operate properly when:
● vehicle speed is out of range from
60 to 180 km/h
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● during nighttime driving● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● the sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt, windscreen damage or
affected by foreign items, e.g.
stickers
● the sun is shining directly into the
camera lens
● close vehicles ahead
● banked roads
● road edges
● roads with poor lane markings
● sudden lighting changes
● vehicle modifications, e.g. tyres
Switch off the system if the system is
disturbed by tar marks, shadows,
road cracks, temporary or
construction lane markings, or other
road imperfections.9 Warning
Always keep your attention on the
road and maintain proper vehicle
position within the lane, otherwise
vehicle damage, injury or death
could occur.
Lane keep assist does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
The system may not keep the
vehicle in the lane or give an alert,
even if a lane marking is detected.
The steering of the lane keep
assist may not be sufficient to
avoid a lane departure.
The system may not detect hands-
off driving due to external
influences (road condition and
surface, weather etc). The driver
has full responsibility to control the vehicle and is always required tokeep the hands on the steeringwheel while driving.
Using the system while towing a
trailer or on slippery roads could
cause loss of control of the vehicle
and a crash. Switch the system off.
