The ACC has certain limitations inherent to
the system. Certain reactions, under certain
circumstances, may be unexpected or come
late from the driver's point of view. So pay at-
tention in order to intervene if necessary.
The following situations require maximum at-
tention:
Starting driving after a stopping phase
(only with automatic transmission)
After a stopping phase, the ACC may begin
driving when the vehicle in front moves off
›››
.
Overtaking
When the turn signal lights up before the ve-
hicle starts to overtake, the ACC accelerates
the vehicle automatically and thus reduces
the distance from the vehicle in front.
When the vehicle moves to the overtaking
lane, if the ACC does not detect another ve-
hicle in front, it accelerates until it reaches the
programmed speed.
System acceleration can be interrupted at
any time by pressing the brake or moving the
third lever to position

Driving through a bend
When entering or leaving some curves, the
radar sensor may cease to sense the vehicle
driving in front of it, or react to a vehicle in the
adjacent lane

. The vehicle may
brake unnecessarily or stop reacting to the
vehicle in front. In this case, the driver has to
intervene by accelerating or interrupting
braking by applying the brake or pushing the
third lever to position
