Two radar sensors in the rear bumper monitor the area behind and next to the vehicle when traveling faster than a minimum speed.
The minimum speed is shown in the menu for the intelligent Safety systems.
The system indicates whether there are vehicles in the blind spot, arrow 1, or approaching from behind in the adjacent lane, arrow 2.
The light in the exterior mirror lights up dimmed.
Before you change lanes after setting the turn signal, the system issues a warning in the situations described above.
The light in the exterior mirror flashes and the steering wheel vibrates.
Vehicles with side collision mitigation: at speeds of up to 130 mph/210 km/h, the system can intervene with a brief active steering intervention and help guide the vehicle back into the lane.
The steering intervention occurs when a minimum speed is reached. This minimum speed is displayed on the Control Display in the menu for the steering intervention.
