FFunction of A unction of Activ ctivee Tr Tra c a c Jam Assist Jam Assist
Active Tra c Jam Assist helps you when in tra c
jams on multi-lane roads with separate carriage-
ways by automatically pulling away within 60 sec-
onds and with moderate steering manoeuvres. It
orients itself using the vehicle in front and lane
markings. Active Tra c Jam Assist automatically
maintains a safe distance from the vehicle in front
and vehicles cutting in.
Active Tra c Jam Assist requires you, as the
driver, to keep your hands on the steering wheel
at all times so that you are able to intervene at
any time to correct the course of the vehicle and
keep it in lane. Observe the notes on driving sys-
tems and your responsibility; you may otherwise
fail to recognise dangers (
/
page 209).
Active Tra c Jam Assist activates automatically as
soon as all of the requirements are met: The ¬
status display appears in the instrument cluster
when the function is active.

FFunction of A unction of Activ ctive St e Steer eering Assist ing Assist
Active Steering Assist is only available up to a
speed of 210 km/h. The system helps you to stay
in the centre of the lane by means of moderate
steering interventions. Depending on the speed
driven, Active Steering Assist uses the vehicles
ahead and lane markings as a reference.
% Depending on the country, in the lower speed
range Active Steering Assist can use the sur-
rounding tra c as a reference. If necessary,
Active Steering Assist can then also provide
assistance when driving outside the centre of
the lane, for example, to form a rescue lane.
If the detection of lane markings and vehicles
ahead is impaired, Active Steering Assist switches
to passive mode. The system provides no support
in this case.
