WARNING Risk of accident despite Eva‐
sive Steering Assist
Evasive Steering Assist cannot always recog‐
nise objects or complex traffic situations
clearly.
Moreover, the steering support provided by
Evasive Steering Assist is not sufficient to
avoid a collision.
#
Always pay careful attention to the traf‐
fic situation; do not rely on Evasive
Steering Assist alone.
#
Be prepared to brake or swerve if nec‐
essary.
#
End the support by actively steering in
non-critical situations.
#
Drive at an appropriate speed if there
are pedestrians close to the path of
your vehicle.

ence from other radar sources, e.g. strong
