Decrease/increase time interval
The set time interval to vehicles ahead can be
increased by pressing
and decreased by
pressing . The current time interval is
shown briefly in the display following adjust-
ment.
Different time intervals can
be selected and are shown in
the instrument panel
2 as 1–5
horizontal bars. The greater
the number of bars, the
longer the time interval. One
bar represents a time interval
of approximately 1 second; 5 bars is approxi-
mately 3 seconds.
To set/change a time interval:
•
Press the / buttons (3).
At low speeds, when the distance to the vehi-
cle ahead is short, ACC increases the time
interval slightly. In order to follow the vehicle
ahead as smoothly as possible, ACC allows
the time interval to vary considerably in cer-
tain situations.
WARNING
•
Only use a time interval that is suitable
in current traffic conditions.
•
A short time interval gives the driver
limited reaction time if an unexpected
situation occurs in traffic.
