If your vehicle veers too far to the right or the left of
the white (or yellow) traffic lane lines while Traffic
Jam Assist is active, deactivate Traffic Jam Assist and
have your vehicle ch ecked by a dealer.
In some cases the system cannot properly detect the
traffic lane lines and, as a result, will not provide
steering assistance. 2 Traffic Jam Assist Conditions and
Limitations P. 635

or does not adequately main tain control of steering,
the warning below will appear.
If the driver does not grip the steering wheel after the
