brake pedal depressed if vehicle stationary
Warning
The brake lamps come on if the vehicle is
slowed down.
If the brake lights fail, the system does not
operate.
Activation of the functionality
If all operating conditions are met, OK? is
displayed.
Press OK to store the current vehicle speed and
activate the cruise control.
On the adaptive cruise control screen, the set
speed and a road element are displayed in
green. The accelerator pedal can be released.
Switching on the system
It uses a radar unit located in the front bumper to
detect the vehicles ahead.
If no vehicle is detected in the driving path,
the adaptive cruise control will behave like a
conventional cruise control.
Alternatively, move the thumb wheel to
increase or to decrease the speed and store
to
this speed. The cruise control is immediately
activated if the thumbwheel is moved upwards
or downwards. On the adaptive cruise control
screen, the set speed and the road element are
displayed in green.
The adaptive cruise control automatically
decelerates the vehicle when approaching a
slower moving vehicle. It then adjusts the vehicle
speed to follow the vehicle ahead at the selected
following distance. The vehicle speed increases
or decreases to follow the vehicle ahead, but will
not exceed the set speed. It may apply limited
braking with activated brake lights.
Setting speed by the driver
If the vehicle ahead accelerates or changes
lane, the adaptive cruise control progressively
accelerates the vehicle to return to the stored
set speed. If the driver operates the turn lights
to overtake a slower vehicle, the adaptive
cruise control allows the vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle ahead to help passing it.
However, the set speed will never be exceeded.
If the vehicle ahead is moving too slowly
and the selected following distance cannot be
maintained anymore, a warning chime is given
and a message is displayed. The message
prompts the driver to take back control of the
vehicle. On vehicles with manual transmission,
the system can brake the vehicle until 30 km/h.
On vehicles with automatic transmission, the
system can brake the vehicle until a full stop.
Depending on the version, the system can
automatically accelerate the vehicle after a full
stop.
Press
successively until the adaptive cruise
control mode is selected.
The adaptive cruise control screen is displayed.
The system is still not activated.
Activation conditions
The system can be activated if the following
conditions are met:
-
vehicle speed between 30 km/h and 180
km/h for vehicles with manual transmission,
between 0 km/h and 180 km/h for vehicles
with automatic transmission
The set speed can be changed by moving
the thumb wheel to
to increase or
to decrease the speed. Move thumb wheel
repeatedly to change speed in small steps, move
and hold to change speed in large steps.
