So I would not count on it, working without hands.

Confirmed this is correct. It flashes the steering wheel sign after a few seconds hands free, then deactivates with a message to keep hands on the steering wheel.
Pretty half baked feature really, and disappointing.

Well, I tried it again today. Even filmed it with a smartphone. Will post the video later...
My car's TJA will stay on even if I don't touch the steering wheel.
Very strange, because I agree with all of you that the manual states you have to keep your hands on the steering wheel.
What it could be:
-malfunction in the steering wheel sensor (if so, I will definitely not have it repaired !)
-something in the car or around the steering wheel makes the sensor think you are touching the wheel. Would have to know what the sensor actually measures ? (Heat ? Conductivity ? Proximity switch ? )
-Only in Belgium ? (Ie the feature has been turned off because it is allowed in Belgium ?)
-programming error ?
-karma ?
Any idea's ?
