How do I activate Driving Assisstant?

The MODE button is accessible on the left side of the steering wheel.

 

The driver may alternate between the "Keep distance" and the "Assisted Driving" feature by pressing on the MODE button.  The "Keep distance" MODE will use Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go to maintain your vehicle's distance to the vehicle in front. The "Assisted Driving" MODE will use both Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go, and Steering Assistant assists the driver in keeping the vehicle in lane by initiating corrective steering interventions if required while maintaining the distance of the vehicle ahead of yours.

 

On the steering wheel: 

  • "SET" speed
  • Set the speed for cruise control
  • Control the MODE.

 

Please note use of the system does not remove the responsibility of the driver to assess visibility, traffic conditions, and to intervene when needed. The driver should always use caution to reduce the risk of accidents.
