(with acoustic message) Take
back control of the vehicle immediately:
the system cannot manage the current
driving situation.
(with acoustic message) The
system refuses to activate cruise control,
as the necessary conditions are not
fulfilled.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
WITH STOP&GO FUNCTION
For full Electric vehicles, Adaptive cruise
control allows to maintain the selected
distance behind a braking vehicle until a
complete stop is reached.
If the system has stopped your vehicle
behind another vehicle, next to the set
speed is shown the symbol
. This
symbol notifies, that the vehicle is hold
automatically in stop position.
While the vehicle is hold in stop position,
the following recommendations should
be followed:
do not leave the vehicle
do not open the load compartment
do not engage the reverse gear
do not drop off or pick up passengers
Within three seconds after the vehicle
has been stopped by the system, the
vehicle slowly moves again. After three
seconds, accelerate or press button
(4) to drive away. Pay attention to the
surroundings of the vehicle when driving
away.
If the vehicle stays stopped for more
than 5 minutes or if the driver's door is
opened and the driver's seat belt is
unfastened, then the electric parking
brake is applied automatically to hold
the vehicle. The symbol
will
illuminate. To release electric parking
brake, press the accelerator pedal.

DRIVER'S ATTENTION
Use the Adaptive cruise control
carefully on bends or mountain roads, as
it can lose the vehicle ahead and needs
time to detect it again
do not use the system on slippery
roads as it can create rapid changes in
tyre traction (wheel spinning), so that
you could lose control of the vehicle
do not use the Adaptive cruise control
during rain, snow or heavy dirt, as the
radar sensor can be covered by a water
film, dust, ice or snow. This reduce or
suppresses completely the visibility. In
case of sensor blockage, clean the sensor
cover
do not use the system when the spare
wheel is in use
SYSTEM LIMITS
194)
After a sudden lane change, the
system needs a certain time to detect
the next preceding vehicle. So if a new
vehicle is detected, the system may
accelerate instead of braking.
The Adaptive cruise control does
ignore the oncoming traffic.
The Adaptive cruise control does not
consider pedestrians and animals for
braking and driving off.
The Adaptive cruise control considers
stopped vehicles only at low speed.
Do not use the Adaptive cruise control
when towing a trailer.
Do not use the Adaptive cruise control
on roads with an incline of more than
10%.
As the radar's field of detection is quite
narrow, it is possible that the system
may not detect:
vehicles of reduced width, e.g.
motorcycles, scooters fig. 187

JJ000628
vehicles not running in the middle of
the lane fig. 188
