Pilot Assist may automatically deactivate in various scenarios. For example:
  • You are not driving actively. You must stay attentive and keep both of your hands on the steering wheel, even if steering assistance is activated.
  • You open a door or unbuckle your seat belt.
  • You change gears. Pilot Assist can only support you when D is selected.
  • You manually speed up and exceed 130 km/h (80 mph).
  • Camera or radar conditions for Pilot Assist are not met.
