Safety
WARNING
Incorrect use of the steering wheel adjust-
ment function and an incorr ect adjustment
of the st
eering wheel can result in severe or
fatal injury.
Operation
eliminate the cause. If necessary, seek pro-
f essional assist
ance.
Priority 2 warning (yellow)
The symbol lights up or flashes (in part ac-
companied by audible warnings). Operating
faults or the lack of operating fluids can
cause damage to the vehicle or a fault.
Check the faulty function as soon as possible.
If necessary, seek professional assistance.
Information message
It provides information about processes in the
vehicle.
Driver alert system (break recom-
mendation)* Fig. 56
On the instrument panel display: driver
al ert syst
em symbol. The Fatigue detection informs the driver when
their driving behaviour sho
ws signs of f
atigue.
Function and operation
Fatigue detection determines the driving be-
haviour of the driver when starting a journey,
making a calculation of tiredness. This is con-
stantly compared with the current driving be-
haviour. If the system detects that the driver is
tired, an audible warning is given with a
sound and an optic warning is shown with a
symbol and complementary message on the
instrument panel display ››› Fig. 56
. The mes-
sage on the instrument panel display is
shown for approximately 5 seconds, and de-
pending on the case, is repeated. The system
stores the last message displayed.
The message on the instrument panel display
can be switched off by pressing the button
on the multi-function steering wheel
››› page 82.
The message can be recalled to the instru-
ment panel display using the multifunction
display ››› page 72
.
Conditions of operation
Driving behaviour is only calculated on
speeds above about 65 km/h (40 mph) up to
around 200 km/h (125 mph). Switching on and off
Fatigue det
ection can be activated or deacti-
vated in the infotainment system using the
function button > Driver assistance >
Driver Alert System ››› page 90
. A mark in-
dicates that the adjustment has been activa-
ted.
System limitations
The Fatigue detection has certain limitations
inherent to the system. The following condi-
tions can limit the Fatigue detection or pre-
vent it from functioning.
Driver assistance systems
distance from the vehicle in front that is
pr esel
ected by the driver and remain in
the preferred position within the lane.
Travel Assist uses the same sensors as Adap-
tive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane Assist.
Therefore, carefully read the information
about the ACC ››› page 254
and the Lane
Assist ››› page 262
and take into account the
limitations of the systems and the indications
given in the information.
Speed range
Travel Assist adjusts at speeds between ap-
prox. 30 km/h (approx. 20 mph) and approx.
210 km/h (approx. 130 mph); in the case of
the adaptive lane guidance function, be-
tween 0 km/h (0 mph) and approx. 250 km/h
(approx. 155 mph). This range may vary de-
pending on the market.
Driving with Travel Assist
Travel Assist automatically controls the ac-
celerator pedal, the brakes and the steering.
In addition, Travel Assist may, within its limita-
tions, decelerate the vehicle until it stops be-
hind another that stops and automatically
starts again.
You can override assisted adjustment at all
times. How to know if the vehicle is fitted with
Tr
avel Assist
The vehicle is fitted with Travel Assist if the
multifunction steering wheel has the button
