The system cannot serve as a substitute for the driver's personal judgment of the traffic situation.

In the event of a warning, do not jerk the steering wheel, as you may lose control over the vehicle.

The system may not be fully functional in the following situations:

▷ When a vehicle is approaching at a speed much faster than your own.

▷ In heavy fog, rain or snowfall.

▷ In tight curves or on narrow lanes.
