Function of Active Lane Change Assist
%
The following function is country-dependent
and only available in conjunction with the
Driving Assistance Package.
Active Lane Change Assist supports the driver
when changing lanes by applying steering torque
if the driver operates a turn signal indicator.
Assistance when changing lanes is provided if all
the following conditions are met:
R
You are driving on a freeway or road with
multiple lanes in the direction of travel.
R
The neighboring lane is separated by a bro‐
ken lane marking.
R
No vehicle is detected in the adjacent lane.
R
The driven speed is between 50 mph
(80 km/h) and 110 mph (180 km/h).
R
Active Lane Change Assist is switched on in
the multimedia system.
R
Active Steering Assist is switched on and
active.
If no vehicle is detected in the adjacent lane and
a lane change is permitted, the lane change
begins after the driver has activated the turn sig‐
nal indicator. This is shown to the driver with a
green arrow 2 next to the steering wheel sym‐
bol. The Lane Change to the Left message also
appears, for example. If Active Lane Change
Assist has been activated with the turn signal
indicator but a lane change is not immediately
possible, a gray arrow 1 appears next to the
steering wheel symbol, which remains green.
When the lane change assistance starts, the turn
signal indicator is automatically activated along
with the display in the multifunction display.
If the assistance graphic is shown when chang‐
ing lanes, the lane change display appears with
an additional arrow pointing towards the adja‐
cent lane (/ page 221).
If a lane change is not possible, the arrow fades
out after a few seconds and a new lane change
must be initiated. An immediate lane change is
only possible on freeway sections without speed
limits.
If the system is impaired, Active Lane Change
Assist may be canceled. If it is canceled, the
Lane Change Canceled message appears in the
multifunction display and a warning tone sounds.
&
WARNING Risk of accident from chang‐
ing lane to an occupied adjacent lane
Lane Change Assist cannot always detect
clearly if the adjacent lane is free.
