WARNING Risk of an accident despite
Evasive Steering Assist
Evasive Steering Assist cannot always clearly
identify objects and complex traffic situa‐
tions.
In addition, the steering support of Evasive
Steering Assist is generally not sufficient to
avoid a collision.
In such cases Evasive Steering Assist can:
R
give an unnecessary warning or provide
assistance
R
not give a warning or not provide assis‐
tance
#
Always pay careful attention to the traf‐
fic situation; do not rely on Evasive
Steering Assist alone.
#
Be ready to brake and take evasive
action if necessary.
#
Prevent the assistance by actively steer‐
ing in non-critical driving situations.
#
Drive at an appropriate speed if pedes‐
trians are close to the path of your vehi‐
cle.
Also observe the system limitations of Evasive
Steering Assist.
System limitations
The system may be impaired or may not function
in the following situations:
R
In snow, rain, fog, heavy spray, if there is
glare, in direct sunlight or in greatly varying
ambient light.

If the sensors are dirty, fogged up, damaged
or covered.
R
If the sensors malfunction due to other radar
source interference, for example strong radar
reflections in parking garages.
R
If a loss of tire pressure or a defective tire
has been detected and displayed.
The system may not react correctly:
R
In complex traffic situations where objects
cannot always be clearly identified.
R
To pedestrians or vehicles if they move
quickly into the sensor detection range.
R
To pedestrians who are hidden by other
objects.
R
If the typical outline of a pedestrian cannot
be distinguished from the background.
