Run-off Mitigation is active at speeds between 40–87 mph (65–140 km/h)1 on roads with clearly marked edges or side marker lines.
Run-off Mitigation uses a camera to monitor the edges of a road and its side marker lines. If the vehicle is about to cross the edge of the road or side marker line, Run-off Mitigation will attempt to actively steer the vehicle back onto the road. If the attempt to steer the vehicle is not sufficient, the brakes will also be applied.
Run-off Mitigation does not provide steering or braking assistance if a turn signal is being used. If the function detects that the vehicle is being driven actively, Run-off Mitigation activation may be delayed for a short time.
The function has two activation levels:
- Steering assistance only
- Steering assistance and braking
Run-off Mitigation with steering assistance only
Run-off Mitigation with steering assistance and braking
Braking is triggered in situations where steering assistance may not be sufficient. Braking effect is modulated automatically depending on the situation when the vehicle begins to run off the road.
Settings
Run-off Mitigation can be activated/deactivated by pulling down the center display's Top view and navigating to:
- Select (tap) the box for Run-off Mitigation, Assistance in case of road departure.
The setting selected when the engine was switched off will be used the next time the engine is started.
Limitations
In certain situations, it may be difficult for Run-off Mitigation to assist the driver. In such cases, it is advisable to deactivate the function.
- road construction
- winter driving conditions
- poor road surfaces
- narrow roads
- a very active driving style
- bad weather with reduced visibility
- edges or lines other than the lane's marker lines
