Lane keeping assistant - operation
The lane keeping assistant is supplemented
with self-explanatory graphics in different sit-
uations. Here are some examples:
NOTE
LKA is temporarily deactivated for as long
as the direction indicator is switched on.
LKA "sees" and follows the side lines (marked in
red in the figure).
If the Lane Keeping Aid is active and
detects/"sees" the side lines, the LKA symbol
indicates this with WHITE lines.
•
GREY side line – the Lane Keeping Aid
does not see a line on that side of the car.
LKA intervenes on the right-hand side (marked in
red in the figure).
The Lane Keeping Aid intervenes and steers
away from the side line - this is indicated
with:
•
RED line for the side in question.

Lane keeping assistant - limitations
•
The Lane Keeping Aid camera sensor is
restricted in a similar way to the human
eye. For more information, see Collision
warning system* - camera sensor limita-
tions (p. 231) and (p. 229).
NOTE
In certain demanding situations LKA may
find it difficult to assist the driver correctly
- in which case it is recommended that
LKA is switched off.
Examples of such a situation could be:
•
roadworks
•
winter road conditions
•
poor road surface
•
very sporty driving style
•
poor weather with reduced visibility.
Hands on the steering wheel
In order for Lane Keeping Aid to operate, the
driver must have his/her hands on the steer-
ing wheel. LKA continual monitors this. If
hands are not detected on the steering wheel,
a text message encouraging the driver to
actively steer the car is shown.
If the driver does not follow the request to
begin steering, the Lane Keeping Aid goes
into standby mode and will remain in this
mode until the driver begins to steer the car
again.
