tion when one of the following conditions is fulfil-
led:
R

R
There is no longer a risk of collision.
R
An obstacle is no longer detected in front of
your vehicle.
Evasive Steering Assist (only vehicles with Driving

Evasive Steering Assist has the following charac-
teristics:
R
The ability to detect stationary or moving
pedestrians.
R

it detects a swerving manoeuvre.
R
Activation by an abrupt steering movement
during a swerving manoeuvre.
R
Assistance during swerving and straightening
of the vehicle.
R
Reaction from a speed of approximately
20 km/h up to a speed of approximately
70 km/h.

actively steering.
Cornering function (only vehicles with Driving
Assistance Package)

oncoming vehicle when turning across an oncom-
ing lane, autonomous braking can be initiated at
speeds below 15 km/h before you have left the
lane in which you are driving.
&
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 traffic
situation; do not rely on Evasive Steering
Assist alone.
#
Be prepared to brake or swerve if neces-
sary.
#
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.
System limits
Full system performance is not yet available for a
