Blind Spot Assist
Introduction
Blind Spot Assist provides assistance
when checking for traffic behind the ve-
hicle.
Radar sensors monitor the area behind the
vehicle. The system measures the distance
and speed
difference in relation to other ve-
hicles and informs the driver by means of
visual signals in the exterior mirrors.
System limits
Use Blind Spot Assist only on paved roads.
Blind Spot Assist may interpret the traffic
situation incorrectly in the following driving
situations, for example:
— On tight bends.
— When driving in the middle of two lanes.
— When road lanes are not the same width.
— At the crest of a hill.
— In poor weather conditions.
— Where there are special roadside struc-
tures, e.g. high or offset crash barriers.
WARNING
The intelligent technology of Blind Spot
Assist cannot overcome the laws of phys-
ics, and functions only within the limits of
the system. Never let the extra conven-
ience
afforded by Blind Spot Assist tempt
you into taking any risks when driving. Al-
ways take care when using Blind Spot As-
sist otherwise you could cause accidents
or injuries. The system is not a substitute
for the full concentration of the driver.
·
Adapt your speed and distance from
the vehicles ahead to suit visibility,
weather, road and
traffic conditions.
·
Your hands must always remain on the
steering wheel so that you can steer at
any time.
·
Observe the signals in the exterior mir-
ror housings and on the instrument
cluster display, and respond to the
prompts.
·
Always pay close attention to the area
around your vehicle.
·
Never use Blind Spot Assist if the radar
sensors are dirty, covered or damaged.
These circumstances can impair the
proper functioning of the system.
·
It may be hard to see the display in the
exterior mirror in direct sunlight.
The radar sensors calibrate them-
selves once during the
first kilometres
after vehicle delivery and after sensor re-
pairs. The sensor range may be restricted
during the calibration phase.
