Intervention with steering assistance and braking.

steering assistance alone is not sufficient. Brak-
ing force is automatically adapted according to
the situation at the moment the vehicle begins to
run off the road.

Activating/deactivating Run-Off
Mitigation with steering assistance
The driver can choose to have this function On
or Off.
Use this button in the center
display's Function view to turn
the function On and Off.
During the next engine start,
the function is reactivated auto-
matically

or the remote key
settings are followed if there is an activated driver
profile

(see the section "Driver profiles").
NOTE
When the Collision avoidance assistance
function is deactivated, all subfunctions of the
following are deactivated:
•
Steering assistance at risk of run-off
•
Steering assistance at risk of head-on
collision
Although it is possible to deactivate the func-
tion, the driver is advised to keep it activated
since it can help improve driving safety in
most cases.

Limitations of Run-Off Mitigation
with steering assistance
In certain demanding driving conditions, the
function may not be able to properly assist the
driver. In these situations, it is recommended
that it is turned off.
Examples of such situations include:
•
road work
•
winter driving conditions
•
narrow roads
•
poor road surfaces
•
a very sporty driving style
•
bad weather with reduced visibility
•
roads with indistinct or no lane markings
•
sharp edges or lines other than the lane's
side markings
•
when the power steering works at reduced
power - e.g. during cooling due to overheat-
ing (see section "Speed-dependent steering
force").
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera unit,
which has some general limitations – see the
section "Camera unit limitations".
107
These alternatives are market dependent.
