Lane Keeping Assist serves to protect you against unintentionally leaving your lane. You are also warned by a noticeable vibration in the steering wheel and by the status symbol flashing in the instrument cluster. Lane Keeping Assist is only an aid and is not intended to keep the vehicle in the lane without the driver's cooperation.
Observe the notes on driving systems and your responsibility; you may otherwise fail to recognise dangers More.
The function is available in the speed range between 60 km/h and 200 km/h.
