Temporarily deactivating steering assistance with Pilot Assist*1

Pilot Assist steering assistance can be temporarily deactivated and reactivated without prior warning.

When the turn signals are used, Pilot Assist's steering assistance will be temporarily deactivated. When the turn signal is switched off, steering assistance will be automatically reactivated if the traffic lane's side markings can still be detected.

If Pilot Assist cannot clearly interpret the lane's side marker lines or if the camera/radar sensor is unable for some other reason to clearly interpret the lane, Pilot Assist will temporarily deactivate steering assistance. However, the speed and distance warnings will remain active. Steering assistance will resume when the side marker lines can once again be interpreted. In these situations, the driver may be alerted through slight vibrations in the steering wheel that steering assistance is temporarily deactivated.
