BMW 5 Series: Operation

A special precondition such as the individual configuration capability for the system or deactivation of this function only is not possible.

Evasion Aid can only be deactivated by switching off all Intelligent Safety systems (ALL OFF).

The system does not relieve the driver of personal responsibility for correctly judging the traffic situation. The driver is solely responsible for the vehicle.
