Pilot Assist-1 limitations
Pilot Assist functionality may be limited in certain
situations.
Pilot Assist is designed to help the driver in a
number of situations. However, the driver always
has the primary responsibility for maintaining a
safe distance to other vehicles and for keeping
the vehicle in its proper traffic lane.
WARNING
Pilot Assist is not a collision avoidance sys-
tem. The driver is always responsible for
steering or applying the brakes if the system
does not detect another vehicle.
Do not use Pilot Assist in demanding driving
conditions such as city driving or other heavy
traffic situations, in slippery conditions, when
there is a great deal of water or slush on the
road, during heavy rain or snow, in poor visibil-
ity, on winding roads or on highway on- or off-
ramps.
In certain situations, it may be difficult for Pilot
Assist to assist the driver correctly or to deac-
tivate automatically. In such cases, it is advisa-
ble not to use Pilot Assist. Examples of such
situations may be:
•
the lane's side market lines are missing,
badly faded or cross each other.
•
the division of lanes is not clear, e.g.,
when a line divides or merges with
another, at exits or if there are many road
signs/markers.
•
there are edges or other lines on or near
the lane, e.g., curbs, cracks, repaired
areas, sharp shadows, etc.
•
the lane is narrow or winding.
•
the lane is at the top of a hill, on an
uneven road surface or over a bump.
•
bad weather conditions (rain, snow, fog,
slush, poor visibility, backlighting, etc).
The driver should also be aware that Pilot
Assist has the following limitations:
•
High curbs, barriers and temporary obsta-
cles (cones, barriers etc) may not be
detected or could be detected incorrectly
as side marker lines, which may create a
risk of collision. The driver must ensure a
safe distance to these obstacles.
•
The camera or radar sensor may not be
able to detect objects if there are pot-
holes or if there are stationary objects
partially or completely blocking the road.
•
Pilot Assist does not "see" pedestrians,
animals, etc.
•
Pilot Assist's steering capacity is limited
and may not always be able to help the
driver keep the vehicle in the lane.
The driver can always take action to override Pilot
Assist.
Steep roads and/or heavy loads
Pilot Assist is primarily intended for use on rela-
tively level roads. The function may not be able to
maintain the correct time interval to the vehicle
ahead on when driving down steep hills. The
driver should be attentive and prepared to apply
the brakes in these situations.
Do not use Pilot Assist when the vehicle is trans-
porting a heavy load or if it is towing a trailer.
