& WARNING Risk of an accident despite
Evasive Steering Assist
Evasive Steering Assist cannot always clearly
identify objects and complex traffic situa‐
tions.
In addition, the steering support of Evasive
Steering Assist is generally not sufficient to
avoid a collision.
In such cases Evasive Steering Assist can:
R
give an unnecessary warning or provide
assistance
R
not give a warning or not provide assis‐
tance
#
Always pay careful attention to the traf‐
fic situation; do not rely on Evasive
Steering Assist alone.
#
Be ready to brake and take evasive
action, if necessary.
#
Prevent the assistance by actively
steering in non-critical driving situa‐
tions.
#
Drive at an appropriate speed if pedes‐
trians are close to the path of your vehi‐
cle.
