Introduction

Depending on the vehicle equipment, the vehicle has driver assistance systems that increase driving convenience.

These driver assistance systems use some sensors and cameras (hereafter referred to as the "sensor system") that are only partially visible to you.

The sensors and cameras visually detect the vehicle's surroundings ultrasonically or by using radar waves.

Installed sensor systems

Depending on the vehicle equipment, the following sensor systems may be installed:

• Radar sensor in the front of the vehicle.
• Radar sensors in the rear of the vehicle.
• Camera behind the windshield.
• Ultrasonic sensors in the front of the vehicle.
• Ultrasonic sensors in the rear of the vehicle.

You can find information on the relevant installation location in the vehicle overviews.

WARNING

The driver assistance systems are not a replacement for the driver's attention and work only within their system limitations. The driver assistance systems cannot detect all driving situations and may not provide warnings or react, or may provide warnings or react with a delay, or may provide warnings or react in a way that is not desired. If you are careless, there is a risk of accidents, serious injuries and death.

• Always stay attentive and do not rely solely on the system. The driver is always responsible for control of the vehicle.
• Be aware of the limits of the sensor system and the system limitations of the individual systems.
• Always adapt your speed and distance to vehicles driving ahead based on the visual, weather, road, and traffic conditions.
• Be prepared to override or interrupt automatic interventions at all times.
• Pay attention to indicators in the instrument cluster display and respond to the displays accordingly when the traffic situation allows.
• Do not use driver assistance systems if you suspect a problem or damage.
