Driving
If the driver tries to change lane and there is
a vehicle in the blind spot:
●
The

lamp flashes in the corresponding
rear-view mirror even though the turn signal
has not been activated.
●
The steering wheel vibrates to warn the
driver of the risk of collision.
●
torque is applied to correct the steering
and return the vehicle to its lane.
Switching off the Lane Assist system in the
following situations
Due to the limits of the Lane Assist system,
switch it off in the following situations:
●
When more attention is required of the
driver
●
When driving in a sporty style
●
In unfavourable weather conditions
●
On roads in poor condition
●
In areas of road works
WARNING
The intelligent technology in the Lane As-
sist system cannot change the limits im-
posed by the laws of physics and by the very
nature of the system. Careless or uncon-
trolled use of the Lane Assist system may
cause accidents and injury. The system is
not a replacement for driver awareness.
●
Always adapt your speed and the distance
to the vehicles ahead in line with visibility,
weather conditions, the condition of the
road and the traffic situation.
●
Always keep your hands on the steering
wheel so it can be turned at any time.
●
The Lane Assist system does not detect
all road markings. The road surfaces, road
structures or objects in poor condition can
be incorrectly detected as road markings
under certain circumstances by the Lane
Assist system. In such situations, switch the
Lane Assist system off immediately.
●
Please observe the indications on the in-
strument panel and act as is necessary.
●
Always pay attention to the vehicle's sur-
roundings.
●
When the area of vision of the camera
becomes dirty, covered or is damaged, the
Lane Assist system function can be affec-
ted.
CAUTION
In order to avoid influencing the operation
of the system, the following points must be
taken into account:
●
Regularly clean the area of vision of the
camera and keep it in a clean state, without
snow or ice
›››
Fig. 222 .
●
Do not cover the area of vision of the
camera.
●
Check that the area of vision of the wind-
screen camera is not damaged.
Note
●
The lane departure warning system has
been exclusively developed for driving on
paved roads only.
●
If the Lane Assist system does not work as
described in this chapter, do not use it and
contact a specialised workshop.
●
If there is a fault in the system, have it
checked by a specialised workshop.
