Function of Active Emergency Stop Assist

ing wheel and the accelerator and brake pedals. If
the system detects a lack of driver activity and the
vehicle threatens to leave the lane, a warning can
be issued and an emergency stop initiated.
Vehicles without Driving Assistance Package: The
system is available from a speed of approx.
60 km/h.
Vehicles with Driving Assistance package: If
Active Steering Assist is switched off, the system
is available from a speed of approx. 60 km/h.
If the system detects that the vehicle is threaten-
ing to leave the lane, a warning can be issued and
an emergency stop initiated.
R
The driver does not touch the steering wheel
for a longer period of time or no steering

depressed.
