24  BMW Driver Advice Assistant functions  Collision warning  The collision warning helps to minimise the risk of collision accidents and reduce the consequences of accidents. If there is a risk of collision, the driver will be warned in good time with visible and audible signals. The multi-function camera mounted to the front windscreen in the area of the rear-view mirror can recognise vehicles and objects that cut into view and whose distance reduces significantly. Up to a speed of 65 km/h, standing objects and crossing pedestrians are detected.   The collision warning is a tool that cannot definitively detect complex traffic situations and may issue a warning too late. As a result, the driver must always be attentive and ready to apply the brakes. If the Assistant issues a warning, the driver must brake or swerve immediately if it is not dangerous to do so. The  driver  must  not  rely  exclusively on the display, but instead always be aware of his or her surroundings.   The collision warning function is limited when – visibility is poor (e.g. in poor road lighting, snow, heavy rain, fog and spray) – there is glare from oncoming headlights, direct sunlight and bright reflections – the camera is dirty, damaged or covered – vehicles are unlit – there are fast-moving pedestrians – pedestrians are wearing certain clothing and objects that hinder detection
25  – there are pedestrians that are concealed by other objects – there are pedestrians whose shape is difficult to discern from the background   The assistant may generate false alerts in the following situations: – oncoming traffic – crossing traffic – on bends – at traffic islands   Pedestrians are detected based on typical body contours and posture. The collision warning will not react to: – small people (children) – animals – oncoming traffic – crossing traffic and bends   Lane departure warning  The multi-function camera mounted to the front windscreen in the area of the area of the rear-view mirror monitors the area in front of the car and recognises lane markings. If the vehicle drifts out of the current lane, a warning is sounded.
26  The lane departure warning is a tool that cannot intervene in the vehicle. The driver maintains full responsibility for steering the car, must keep their hands on the wheel at all times and must adjust the speed and distance from the car in front accordingly. Lane departure warning cannot take account of road and weather conditions and cannot always assess traffic situations correctly. The driver must adjust their driving style independently. The  driver  must  not  rely  exclusively on the display, but instead always be aware of his or her surroundings.   To ensure the function of the lane departure warning, – the area around the camera must be kept clean – the camera’s line of sight must be kept clear – the front windscreen in the area of the camera must be regularly checked for damage.   The lane departure warning cannot recognise all road markings and has only been developed for driving on asphalted roads. Where road markings and the road structure are poor, or if there are objects on the road, mis-detections may occur. In this situation, the lane departure warning may sound an alert inappropriately or, incorrectly, not at all.   The  driver  must  not  rely  exclusively  on  the display,  but  instead  always  be  aware  of  his  or her surroundings.
27 The lane departure warning function is limited when –visibility is poor (e.g. in poorroad lighting, snow, heavyrain, fog and spray)–there is glare from oncomingheadlights, direct sunlightand bright reflections–the camera is dirty, damagedor covered–there are no, multiple orunclear road markings–there are tight bends–there are alternating lanemarkings (e.g.: diversionsand crossroads)There is no warning –when the indicators are usedDistance information The  distance  information helps  to  maintain  a  suitable distance  from  the  vehicle  in front  and  warns  the  driver  if they  are  getting  too  close. The  distance  information minimises  the  risk  of accident  and  reduces  the consequences  of  an accident. The multi-function camera mounted on the front windscreen in the area of the rear-view mirror can detect the vehicle in front from a speed of 40 km/h if the distance is too short over a period of several seconds. The assistant provides optical information about the current distance to the vehicle in front, prompting the driver to adjust their distance. In critical situations, it also emits a signal (if activated) to warn the driver to brake the car immediately or to swerve if the situation allows it. LANGUAGECODE.DE
28 The distance information is a tool but should not be relied on exclusively. The driver must monitor their surroundings at all times and adjust their distance independently. The assistant will not intervene in the vehicle. It is the driver's responsibility to maintain a safe distance from other vehicles. The sensitivity of the distance information depends on the environmental and weather conditions. In heavy rain and snow, as well as in low temperatures and darkness, the assistant is more sensitive and recommends maintaining a greater distance. The distance information function is limited when –visibility is poor (e.g. in poor roadlighting, snow, heavy rain, fog andspray)–there is glare from oncoming headlights,direct sunlight and bright reflections–the camera is dirty, damaged orcoveredThe distance information does not react: –to people or animals–to oncoming traffic–to crossing traffic–on bendsIn complex traffic situations, the distance information may –issue a warning although there is nodanger–not issue a warning although there is adanger
29  Traffic sign recognition  Traffic sign recognition displays the maximum permitted speed and when overtaking is prohibited.   Traffic sign recognition is a tool that may recognise traffic signs incorrectly. The traffic signs on the roads always take priority if there is a discrepancy with the display and must be observed at all times. The driver must not rely exclusively on the display, but instead always be aware of his or her surroundings and interpret traffic signs independently.   The road sign recognition function is limited when – visibility is poor (e.g. in poor road lighting, snow, heavy rain, fog and spray) – there is glare from oncoming headlights, direct sunlight and bright reflections – the camera is dirty, damaged or covered – the road signs are difficult to read – there is inadequate lighting of road signs – there are signs with multiple meanings (e.g. on construction sites)  Alertness assistant  The alertness assistant helps the driver on long, tedious journeys, especially when driving on the motorway. The assistant analyses the driving behaviour, journey length and time of day to offer recommendations about taking regular breaks. A warning is issued via a symbol on the display and possibly with a warning sound.
30  The alertness assistant is merely a tool and cannot (always) detect signs of illness, form on the day or tiredness. The driver is solely responsible for taking suitable breaks. The assistant's algorithm is designed exclusively for journeys on well-asphalted roads, as well as on motorways.   The assistant’s function is limited when – driving for less than 60 minutes – driving in a sporty style – speeds are maintained below 60 km/h and over 200 km/h – the driver is very distracted   The alertness assistant is unable to detect momentary nodding-off.   The alertness assistant detects a break if – the engine is switched off for a period of more than 15 minutes   When a break is detected, the assistant is reset to zero and restarts the analysis. High beam assistant  The high beam assistant recommends the timely lowering of high beams when there is oncoming traffic. The multi-function camera mounted to the front windscreen in the area of the rear-view mirror can recognise oncoming vehicles and vehicles in front of the car and measures the distance from them. This means that a recommendation to lower the high beams can be issued in good time so that the oncoming traffic is not dazzled. The assistant also recommends lowering the high beam in well-lit areas, such as towns or cities.   The high beam assistant is only active when the high beams are switched on.   The high beams do not react to: – unlit road users (pedestrians) – poorly-lit road users (cyclists) – road users whose lighting is concealed (crash barrier, narrow bends)   The high beam assistant is a tool that offers recommendations on how to use the headlights. In rare cases, other road users who have their own lighting will not be recognised and LANGUAGECODE.EN
31  the lowering of the high beams will not be (expressly) recommended. There is a risk of accident! Correct vehicle lighting is the responsibility of the driver, who should not rely solely on the display but is instead obliged to make his or her own assessment of the lighting, visibility and traffic situations.
32 The high beam assistant’s function is limited when –visibility is poor (e.g.: in snow, heavyrain, fog and spray)–there are bright reflections–the camera is dirty, damaged orcoveredDisposing of electronic equipment (WEEE  Directive) This symbol on the product or packaging indicates that the the product must not be disposed of in household waste.
