Tiredness detection (break
recommendation)*
Introduction
The Tiredness detection informs the driver when their driving behaviour
shows signs of fatigue.
Additional information and warnings:
Easy Connect system ⇒ page 79
Accessories, change a part, repairs and adjustments (information stored
in the control units) ⇒ page 272
WARNING
Do not let the comfort afforded by the Tiredness detection system tempt
you into taking any risks when driving. Take regular breaks, sufficient in
length when making long journeys.
The driver always assumes the responsibility of driving to their full
capacity.
Never drive if you are tired.
The system does not detect the tiredness of the driver in all circum-
stances. Consult the information in the section ⇒ page 214, System limi-
tations.
WARNING (Continued)
In some situations the system may incorrectly interpret an intended
driving manoeuvre as driver tiredness.
No warning is given in the event of the effect called microsleep!
Please observe the indications on the instrument panel and act as is
necessary.
Note
Tiredness detection has been developed for driving on motorways and
well paved roads only.
If there is a fault in the system, have it checked by a specialised work-
shop.
Function and operation

ment panel display:
Tiredness detection sym-
bol
Tiredness detection determines the driving behaviour of the driver when
starting a journey, making a calculation of tiredness. This is constantly com-
pared with the current driving behaviour. If the system detects that the driv-
er is tired, an audible warning is given with a sound and an optic warning is
shown with a symbol and complementary message on the instrument panel
