Advanced lane keep assist
9 Warning
The system assists the driver in
managing the steering,
acceleration and braking within
the limits of the laws of physics
and the capabilities of the vehicle.
Some road infrastructure
elements or vehicles present on
the road may not be properly seen
or may be poorly interpreted by the
camera and radar, which may lead
to an unexpected change in
direction, a lack of steering
correction and/or inappropriate
management of the acceleration
or braking.
Advanced lane keep assist is an
enhancement of the lane keep assist
system.
The activated system observes the
lane markings by using the camera
located at the top of the windscreen.
It steers the vehicle inside the
detected lane. The driver will notice a
turning movement of the steering
wheel.
Thus, the current position of the
vehicle within the lane is kept. This
position is not necessarily the centre
of the lane.
In the case that the vehicle is driving
at the outer edge of the lane, the
system corrects the trajectory
smoothly towards the centre of the
currently driven lane when a
determined speed has been
exceeded. Again, the driver will notice
a turning movement of the steering
wheel.
When the vehicle is steered by the
system,
O
illuminates green in the
Driver Information Centre.
However, the control of the vehicle
can be taken over at any time by the
driver. Therefore, the driver needs to
apply some additional force when
turning the steering wheel.
If the system detects that the driver is
not holding the wheel firmly enough,
it triggers a series of gradual alerts. If
the interruption takes too long, the
system will be deactivated.
O
extinguishes in the Driver Information
Centre. The system has to be
reactivated again by the driver.
