Introduction
Emergency Assist can recognize driver inactivity and can automatically keep the vehicle in its lane and, if necessary, slow it down to a stop. The system can hereby actively help to avoid an accident or reduce the consequences of an accident.
Emergency Assist system limitations
Emergency Assist detects driving situations using the same sensor technology as the Adaptive Cruise Control A(CC ) and Lane Keeping System (Lane Assist).
WARNING
Emergency Assist is not a replacement for the driver's attention and works only within the system limitations.
Emergency Assist cannot detect all driving situations and may not react, may react with a delay, or may react in a way that is not desired. Emergency Assist also cannot always avoid accidents and serious injury by itself. If you are careless, there is a risk of accidents, serious injuries and death.

System intervention
