Functions of Lane Keeping Assist
Lane Keeping Assist monitors the area in front of
your vehicle with multifunction camera

. It
serves to protect you against unintentionally leav‐
ing your lane. You may also be warned by a
vibrating message from the steering wheel and by
the status symbol flashing in the Instrument Dis‐
play.
The warning is issued when the following condi‐
tions are met at the same time:
R
Lane Keeping Assist detects lane markings.
R
A front wheel drives over a lane marking.
You can activate and deactivate the Lane Keeping
Assist warning.
If you fail to adapt your driving style, Lane Keep‐
ing Assist can neither reduce the risk of accident
nor override the laws of physics. It cannot take
into account road, weather or traffic conditions.
Lane Keeping Assist is only an aid and is not
intended to keep the vehicle in the lane without
the driver's cooperation. You are responsible for
the safe distance to the vehicle in front, for vehi‐
cle speed, braking in good time and for staying in
your lane.
System limits

in the following situations:

There is poor visibility, e.g. due to insufficient
illumination of the road, if there are highly
variable shade conditions or in rain, snow, fog
or spray.
R
Glare from oncoming traffic, direct sunlight or
reflections.
R
There is dirt on the windshield in the vicinity
of the multifunction camera or the camera is
fogged up, damaged or obscured.
R
No or several unclear lane markings are pres‐
ent for one lane, e.g. in a construction area.
R
The lane markings are worn, dark or covered.
R
The distance to the vehicle driving in front is
too short and thus the lane markings cannot
be detected.

branch off, cross one another or merge.
R
The road is very narrow and winding.
