WARNING
The Travel Assist smart technology cannot
o
vercome the limits imposed by the laws of
physics and it only works within the limits
of the system. If Travel assist is used negli-
gently or involuntarily, it may cause serious
accidents and injuries. The system is not a
replacement for driver awareness.
●
Bear in mind the system limitations and
the indications regarding the control of the
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane As-
sist.
●
Adapt your speed and safety distance to
the vehicle in front of you at all times to
suit visibility, weather, road and trac condi-
tions.
●
Do not use Travel Assist when visibility is
bad, on steep roads, on windy roads or in
slippery circumstances (e. g., snow, ice, rain
or loose gravel), or on flooded roads.
●
Do not use Travel Assist oroad or on roads
where the surface is not firm. Travel Assist
has been designed for use on paved roads
only.
●
Travel Assist does not react to people or
animal or vehicles crossing your path or
which approach you head-on in the same
lane.
●
Brake immediately if Travel Assist does not
slow down enough.
●
Brake immediately when instructed to do
so on the instrument cluster display, or if
Travel Assist does not reduce speed su-
ciently.
●
Brake when the vehicle continues to move
forward without it being desired after an indi-
cation to brake.
●
If possible, do not wear gloves while driv-
ing. The system could interpret this as no
driving activity.
●
If driver intervention is requested on the in-
strument panel display, immediately resume
control of the vehicle.
●
Keep your hands on the steering wheel at
all times, to ensure you have control over the
steering at all times. The driver is always re-
sponsible for keeping the vehicle in its own
lane.
●
Always be prepared to adjust the speed
yourself
