The Emergency Stop Assistant assists the driver if they are no longer able to drive their vehicle safely. When the system is triggered, the vehicle is brought to a stop in its own lane by the lane keeping system. The Interaction Unit can be used to enable/disable triggering of the Emergency Stop Assistant. The driver can manually cancel the Emergency Stop Assistant at any time.
To activate/deactivate triggering of the Emergency Stop Assistant, go through the menu as follows:
- Apps menu
- "Vehicle"
- "Driving settings"
- "Driver Assistance"
- "Safety and warnings"
- "Emergency stop".
The driver can cancel the Emergency Stop Assistant at any point by taking active control of the vehicle. For instance, the system will be canceled in the following situations:
– With strong countersteering.
– When flashing.
– If the accelerator pedal is pressed hard.
– When switching off the hazard warning system.
– When stopping the system on the Interaction Unit.
– When changing the selector lever position if the vehicle was already stationary.
