Important safety notes
Blind Spot Assist uses a radar sensor system
to monitor the areas on both sides of your
vehicle. It begins to work at speeds of
approximately 20 mph (30 km/h). A warning
display in the exterior mirrors draws your
attention to detected vehicles in the
monitored area. If you then indicate a turn
towards that side before changing lanes, you
will also receive visual and audible collision
warnings. The Blind Spot Assist monitoring
system uses sensors in the rear bumper.
Blind Spot Assist is only an aid designed to
assist driving. It may fail to detect some
vehicles and is no substitute for attentive
driving.
Blind Spot Assist cannot detect road and
traffic conditions. It may fail to detect narrow
vehicles, such as motorcycles or bicycles, or
may only detect them too late.
Monitoring may be affected by dirty sensors,
strong spray or poor visibility caused by snow,
rain or mist, for example. In this case, vehicles
are detected late or not at all.
Always pay attention to traffic conditions and
your surroundings. Otherwise, you may fail to
recognize dangers in time, cause an accident
and injure yourself and others.
