Troubleshooting
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
maintains a constant speed that you
have set. When your vehicle
approaches a vehicle that is driving in
front, ACC automatically adapts the
speed to maintain the distance that you
have set.
Driving with ACC
You can override control by ACC at any time. Control will be interrupted if you brake. If you
accelerate, control will be interrupted while you are accelerating and then resumed.
Control by ACC is less dynamic when towing a trailer
⇒
. ACC will not perform control if the brake
lights of the trailer are defective.
Brake request
If automatic deceleration by ACC is not sufficient, ACC will request you to brake additionally by a
corresponding message on the instrument cluster. The red warning lamp
lights up. An
acoustic warning is also given. Brake immediately.
