Lane departure warning
Principle
The lane departure warning alerts when the vehi‐
cle is about to run off the road or exit the lane.
General information
This camera-based system warns starting at a
minimum speed.
The minimum speed is country-specific and is
displayed in the menu for the intelligent Safety

Warnings are issued by means of a steering
wheel vibration. The severity of the steering
wheel vibration can be adjusted.
The system does not provide a warning if the
turn signal is set in the respective direction be‐
fore leaving the lane.
Depending on the equipment version, if in the

marking is crossed, the system may intervene
