Using the lane change assist
L
ane Change Assist uses the same sensor sys-
tem as Side Assist. Therefore, read the informa-
tion on Side Assist ›››page203 carefully and
observe the limits of the system and the notes
that it displays.
Activating the convenience turn signal on a mo-
torway, provided that the prerequisites are met
and no vehicles have been detected in the vi-
cinity, provides assistance when the vehicle is
changing lanes.
Prerequisites
Lane change assist is only available, depend-
ing on the vehicle's equipment, when driving
forwards on multi-lane motorways included in
the Infotainment system’s navigation data, and
when travelling faster than 90km/h.
Travel Assist must also be activated.
