road's course not clearly visible
R

varying maximum permissible speeds in indi-
vidual lanes, forexample at toll stations

Function of Active Stop-and-Go Assist
Active Stop-and-Go Assist helps you when in traf-

60 seconds and with moderate steering maneu-

lane markings. Active Stop-and-Go Assist auto-
matically maintains a safe distance from the vehi-
cle in front and vehicles cutting in.
Active Stop-and-Go Assist requires you, as the
driver, to keep your hands on the steering wheel
at all times so that you are able to intervene at
any time to correct the course of the vehicle and
keep it in lane. Observe the notes on driving sys-
