Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist interacts with other systems, such as
Electronic Stability Control. If any of these other
systems are not functioning properly, Pilot Assist
will automatically be deactivated.
WARNING
If this happens, the driver will be alerted by an
audible signal and a message in the instru-
ment panel. The driver will have to adapt the
vehicle's speed, apply the brakes when nec-
essary and keep a safe distance to the vehicle
ahead.
Pilot Assist switches automatically to standby
mode if:
•
the vehicle's speed is below approx. 3 mph
(5 km/h) and Pilot Assist cannot determine if
a vehicle ahead is a stationary vehicle or an
object.
•
the vehicle's speed is below approx. 3 mph
(5 km/h) and the vehicle ahead turns so that
Pilot Assist no longer has a vehicle to follow
(target vehicle).
•
the driver's hands are not on the steering
wheel
•
the driver's door is opened
•
the driver unbuckles the seat belt
•
engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
•
the wheels lose traction
•
brake temperature is too high
•
the parking brake is set
•
the camera lens/radar sensor is covered by
e.g., snow or if heavy rain interferes with
radar waves
