side. This is meant to assist you in bringing
the vehicle back to the original lane.
If a lane-correcting brake application occurs,
display : appears in the multifunction dis-
play.
A lane-correcting brake application can be
made after driving over a lane marking rec-
ognize as being solid or broken. Before this, a
warning must be given by means of intermit-
tent vibration in the steering wheel. In addi-
tion, a lane with lane markings on both sides
must be recognized.
In the case of a broken lane marking being
detected, a lane-correcting brake application
can only be made if a vehicle has been detec-
ted in the adjacent lane. The following vehi-
cles can have an influence on brake applica-
tion: oncoming traffic, vehicles that are over-
taking and vehicles that are driving parallel to
your vehicle.
i A further lane-correcting brake applica-
tion can only occur after your vehicle has
returned to the original lane.
No lane-correcting brake application occurs
if:
R you clearly and actively steer, brake or
accelerate.
R
you cut the corner on a sharp bend.
R
you have adopted a sporty driving style with
high cornering speeds or high rates of
acceleration.
R you have switched on the turn signals.
R
a driving safety system intervenes, e.g.
ESP ® , PRE-SAFE ® Brake or Active Blind
Spot Assist.
R ESP ® is switched off.
R the transmission is not in position D.
R an obstacle has been detected in the lane in
which you are driving.
R
when a loss of tire pressure or a defective
tire has been detected and displayed.
There is a possibility that the Active Lane
Keeping Assist could misjudge the given traf-
fic situation. An inappropriate brake applica-
tion may be interrupted at any time if you:
R
steer slightly in the opposite direction
R
switch on the turn signal
R clearly brake or accelerate
A lane-correcting brake application is inter-
rupted automatically if:
R a driving safety system intervenes, e.g.
ESP ® , PRE-SAFE ® Brake or Active Blind
Spot Assist.
R lane markings can no longer be recognized.
Switching on Active Lane Keeping Assist
X Switch on Active Lane Keeping Assist using
the on-board computer; to do so, select
Standard Standard or Adaptive Adaptive (
Y
page 236).
If you drive at speeds above 40 mph
(60 km/h) and lane markings are detected,
the lines in the assistance graphics display
(
Y
page 235) are shown in green. Active
Lane Keeping Assist is ready for use.
If
Standard Standard is selected, no warning vibra-
tion occurs if:
R
you have switched on the turn signals. In
this event, the warnings are suppressed
for a certain period of time.
R
a driving safety system intervenes, such
as ABS, BAS or ESP ® .
When Adaptive Adaptive is selected, no warning
vibration occurs if:
R you have switched on the turn signals. In
this event, the warnings are suppressed
for a certain period of time.
R a driving safety system intervenes, e.g.
ABS, BAS or ESP ® .
R you accelerate hard, e.g. kickdown.
R
you brake hard.
R
you steer actively, e.g. swerve to avoid an
obstacle or change lanes quickly.
R you cut the corner on a sharp bend.
In order that you are warned only when nec-
essary and in good time if you cross the lane
marking, the system recognizes certain con-
ditions and warns you accordingly.
