The Pilot Assist feature helps keep the vehicle in
its current traffic lane by providing steering
assistance and maintaining an even speed and a
set time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Function
The vehicle's camera monitors the traffic lane's
side marker lines and a distance monitor helps
maintain the set time interval to the vehicle
ahead.
Pilot Assist helps provide more relaxed driving in
heavy, slow-moving traffic at speeds up to
30 mph (50 km/h) on highways and major roads.
Function overview
Windshield module containing the camera/
radar sensor
Monitoring distance
Monitoring side marker lines
The driver sets the desired time interval to the
vehicle ahead. Pilot Assist monitors that vehicle
and the traffic lane's side market lines using the
camera and radar sensor mounted in the upper,
center section of the windshield. It helps maintain
the set time interval by automatically adjusting
speed and by providing steering assistance to
help keep your vehicle in the lane.
Pilot Assist's steering assistance is based on
monitoring the direction of the vehicle ahead and
the traffic lane's side marker lines. The driver can
always override Pilot Assist and steer the vehicle
to e.g., change lanes, etc.
