System limitations
The Fatigue detection has certain limitations
inherent to the system. The following condi-
tions can limit the Fatigue detection or pre-
vent it from functioning.
At speeds below 65 km/h (40 mph)
At speeds above 200 km/h (125 mph)
When cornering
On roads in poor condition
In unfavourable weather conditions
When a sporty driving style is employed
In the event of a serious distraction to the
driver
Fatigue detection will be restored when the
vehicle is stopped for more than 15 minutes,
when the ignition is switched off or when the
driver has unbuckled their seat belt and
opened the door.
In the event of slow driving during a long peri-
od of time (below 65 km/h, 40 mph) the sys-
tem automatically re-establishes the tired-
ness calculation. When driving at a faster
speed the driving behaviour will be recalcula-
ted.
WARNING
Do not let the comfort afforded by the Fati-
gue detection system tempt you into t
aking
any risks when driving. Take regular breaks,
sufficient in length when making long jour-
neys.
The driver always assumes the responsi-
bility of driving to their full capacity.
Never drive if you are tired.
The system does not detect the tiredness
of the driver in all circumstances. Consult
the information in the section
››
page 77,
System limitations.
In some situations, the system may incor-
rectly int
erpret an intended driving ma-
noeuvre as driver tiredness.
No warning is given in the event of the ef-
fect called microsleep!
Please observe the indications on the in-
strument panel and act as is necessary.
Note
F
atigue detection has been devel
oped
for driving on motorways and well paved
roads only.
If there is a fault in the system, have it
checked by a specialised workshop.
