Lane change assist system Side AssistUsage
The system uses optical signals in the exterior mirror
to alert the driver to vehicles that could be danger-
ous when changing lanes.

vehicle.
The system warns of an approaching vehicle through
the warning light
in the exterior mirror cover on
the side of the vehicle where the vehicle is recog-
nized.

is overtaken by your vehicle at a speed
that is faster by max. 10 km/h. If the speed is higher
during the overtaking process, no warning will be
provided by the indicator light.
