# Using Assisted Lane Changing

When you set a convenience turn signal, the vehicle can perform assisted lane changing on multi- lane motorways within the system limits if sufficient space has been detected surrounding the vehicle.

Assisted lane changing uses the same sensors as the lane change system (Side Assist). You should therefore read the information on Side Assist carefully and observe the system limits and warnings listed there.

# Prerequisites

Assisted lane changing is available only while driving forward on multi- lane motorways that are included in the navigation data of the Infotainment system and from a speed of around  $65~\mathrm{km / h}$ .

Travel Assist must also be switched on.

# Switching assisted lane changing on and off

You can switch assisted lane changing on and off in the Infotainment system.

1. Open the Driving Assist system menu.2. Select Travel Assist.3. Activate or deactivate assisted lane changing as a sub-function of Travel Assist.

If there is a system malfunction, assisted lane changing may switch itself off or abort during the lane change.

# Changing lane

If the system has not detected any objects in the sensor system's detection range and assisted lane changing to an adjacent lane is possible, the corresponding lane is shown in the instrument cluster display next to the driver's own lane. In addition, the arrow on the corresponding lane side is displayed in white.

- Operate the convenience turn signal for the corresponding side.

The vehicle now changes lane. A message is also shown on the instrument cluster display and the lane change is indicated.

During the lane change, the vehicle automatically flashes on the corresponding side of the vehicle. When the lane change is complete, the turn signal is automatically switched off.

# WARNING

The assisted lane changing function is not a substitute for the full attention of the driver and operates only within the limits of the system. Assisted lane changing cannot recognize all driving situations or all objects in the surroundings and may possibly not react or may react with a delay or when not desired. If you do not pay due attention, there is a risk of accidents and serious or even fatal injuries.

- Before every lane change, check to make sure that this is possible safely. Particularly objects that are approaching quickly may not be detected in good time.- Always keep your hands on the steering wheel and be prepared to control the vehicle speed and direction of travel yourself.

# Deactivating assisted lane changing

- Briefly press the button.

Or: depress the brake pedal.

Assisted lane changing and Travel Assist are deactivated.
