Temporarily deactivating steering
assistance with Pilot Assist
*
44
Pilot Assist steering assistance can be tem-
porarily deactivated and reactivated without
prior warning.
When the turn signals are used, Pilot Assist's
steering assistance will be temporarily deacti-
vated. When the turn signal is switched off,
steering assistance will be automatically reac-
tivated if the traffic lane's side markings can
still be detected.
If Pilot Assist cannot clearly interpret the
lane's side marker lines or if the camera/radar
sensor is unable for some other reason to
clearly interpret the lane, Pilot Assist will tem-
porarily deactivate steering assistance. How-
ever, the speed and distance warnings will
remain active. Steering assistance will resume
when the side marker lines can once again be
interpreted. In these situations, the driver may
be alerted through slight vibrations in the
steering wheel that steering assistance is tem-
porarily deactivated.

limitations
Pilot Assist functionality may be reduced in
certain situations.
Pilot Assist is a driver support function
designed to simplify driving and assist the
driver in many situations. However, the driver
is always responsible for maintaining a suita-
ble distance to vehicles or objects around it
and ensuring that the vehicle is correctly posi-
tioned in the traffic lane.
WARNING
In some situations, Pilot Assist may have
trouble helping the driver properly or may
be deactivated automatically – we advise
against using Pilot Assist in such cases.
Examples of such situations include:
•
the lane markings are worn, missing or
cross each other.
•
lane division is unclear, for example,
when the lanes divide or merge or at
exits or when there are multiple sets of
markings.
•
edges or other lines than lane markings
are present on or near the road, e.g.
curbs, joints or repairs to the road sur-
face, edges of barriers, roadside edges
or strong shadows.
•
the lane is narrow or winding.
•
the lane contains ridges or holes.
•
weather conditions are poor, e.g. rain,
snow or fog or slush or reduced visibil-
ity with poor light conditions, back-
lighting, wet road surface, etc.
The driver should also note that Pilot Assist
has the following limitations:
•
High curbs, roadside barriers, tempo-
rary obstacles (traffic cones, safety bar-
riers, etc.) are not detected. Alterna-
44 Depending on market, this function can be either standard or optional.
