Driver Hands off notification sensitivity

When driving with Active Lane Keeping Assist, even with my hands on the steering wheel, the image of Hands On steering wheel keeps coming on. Is there a way to change the sensitivity of this feature or turn it off while using Active Lane Keeping Assist?

I have the same feedback icon when using self driving Distro+.
I dont believe you can adjust sensitivity.
What you can do is keep moving side to side to let the computer know you're not asleep at the wheel.

Your steering control module may need attention. Scan it for faults.

Wonder if It can be coded out? Maybe Benz-Ninja could look into this as another mod.
