er's manual

Information message
Information about various procedures within
the vehicle.
If several warnings are present, the
symbols will appear for several sec-
onds, one after another. The symbols will
continue to appear until the faults are recti-
fied.
If warnings about malfunctions are
displayed when the ignition is switch-
ed on, it may not be possible to adjust some
settings as described, or the information dis-
play may appear differently. If this is the
case, take the vehicle to a qualified workshop
to have the malfunctions rectified.
Driver Alert System (break
recommendation)
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
Fig. 15 On the instrument cluster display: Driv-
er Alert System symbol.
The Driver Alert System informs the driv-
er if their driving shows signs of tired-
ness.
Function and operation
The Driver Alert System determines the driv-
ing behaviour at the beginning of a journey
and uses it to evaluate the tiredness of the
driver. This is compared to the behaviour of
the driver while actually driving. If the system
detects driver fatigue, an acoustic warning
signal will sound and a symbol will be dis-
played on the instrument cluster display to-
gether with a supplementary text message
→
. The message in the instrument
cluster display is displayed for about five sec-
onds and may be repeated once. The last dis-
played message is saved by the system.
The message on instrument cluster display
can be deactivated as follows:
— Press the
button on the multifunction
steering wheel.
Function conditions
The driving behaviour can be evaluated only
when the speed is above 60 km/h (37 mph)
up to approximately 200 km/h (125 mph).
