Title Updates to the customer’s software, May 2019
• Improved logic for rear seat belt reminders. The audible signal will stop when the vehicle stops and restart when the vehicle is
moving.
• Changed optimization for engine noise compensation. There is a slight change in sound.
• Improved feedback for Pilot Assist. Under certain conditions, the steering wheel vibrates slightly when Pilot Assist steering
assistance is disconnected, adaptive cruise control remains active. The same vibration is used that Lane Keeping Aid uses
when the vehicle is starting to veer over the lane markings.
• Amended messages in the driver display (12-inch) for the Start/Stop function. A start/stop symbol has been added and the
texts “Ready” and “Off” have been removed. Note that this is not applicable to Twin Engine models. The start/stop function
switches off the engine temporarily at a standstill and then starts it automatically when it is needed. Previously, a message was
shown in the tachometer when the function was available. This has been replaced with the following symbols when the
function is available:
White – Displayed in the tachometer when the function is available but the engine is running (vehicle is in motion).
Green – Shown in the tachometer when the function is active and the engine is auto-stopped.
Gray – When the symbol is grayed out with a line through it, the function is not available.
If no symbol is shown, the function is switched off in the vehicle functions menu.
Example:
The function is active and the engine is auto-stopped.
