Warning from cruise
control functions in the
event of a risk of
collision
The driver support systems of adaptive cruise
control and Pilot Assist can warn the driver if the
distance to the vehicle ahead suddenly
becomes too short.

Adaptive cruise control and Pilot Assist use
approx. 40% of the capacity of the foot brake. If
the car needs to be braked more heavily than
the driver support is capable of and the driver
does not brake, the warning lamp and acoustic
warning are activated to alert the driver that
immediate intervention is required.

WARNING
The driver support systems only warn of
vehicles which their radar unit has
detected – hence a warning may not be
given, or it may be given with a certain
delay. Never wait for a warning. Apply the
brakes when the situation requires.
