Drive Away Assist is only available for vehicles
with automatic transmission.

If no rear sensors are installed, Drive Away
Assist only works in the direction of travel for-
wards. ( / page 155).

impact when pulling away. If an obstacle is detec-
ted in the direction of travel, the vehicle's speed is
briefly reduced to approximately 1 mph (2 km/h).

Be prepared to brake or swerve as nec-
essary, provided the traffic situation per-
mits and that it is safe to take evasive
action.
