DRIVER SUPPORT
}}
379
Depending on settings, lane assistance acts in
accordance with the following:
•
Assist activated: When the car is
approaching a lane line, the function will
actively steer the car back into its lane by
applying a slight torque to the steering
wheel.
•
Warning activated: If the car is about to
cross a lane line, the driver is warned by
means of vibrations in the steering wheel.
There is also an option where both steering
assistance and warning are activated simulta-
neously.
NOTE
When a direction indicator/flasher is
switched on, there are no steering correc-
tions or alerts from lane assistance.
WARNING
•
The function is supplementary driver
support intended to facilitate driving
and make it safer – it cannot handle all
situations in all traffic, weather and
road conditions.
•
The driver is advised to read all sec-
tions in the Owner's Manual that relate
to this function to learn about factors
such as its limitations and what the
driver should be aware of before using
the system.
•
Driver support functions are not a sub-
stitute for the driver's attention and
judgement. The driver is always
responsible for ensuring the car is
driven in a safe manner, at the appro-
priate speed, with an appropriate dis-
tance to other vehicles, and in accord-
ance with current traffic rules and reg-
ulations.
Lane assistance does not intervene
Lane assistance does not engage on sharp inside
curves.
In some situations, lane assistance allows lane
lines to be crossed without intervening with
either steering assistance or a warning – e.g.
when using the direction indicators or cutting
bends.
Hands on the steering wheel
For steering assistance with lane assistance to
work, the driver must have his/her hands on
the steering wheel, which the system will con-
tinue to monitor.
If the driver does not keep
his/her hands on the steering
wheel, a warning signal is
heard and a message encour-
ages the driver to steer the
car actively:
