In order to follow the vehicle ahead as smoothly
as possible, Pilot Assist allows the time interval to
vary considerably in certain situations. At low
speeds, when the distance to the vehicle ahead
is short, Pilot Assist increases the time interval
slightly.
•
If Pilot Assist does not seem to react when it
is put in active mode, this may be because
the set time interval to the vehicle ahead
does not allow an increase in speed.
•
The higher the speed, the greater the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead for a given time
interval.
WARNING
•
Only use a time interval that is suitable in
current traffic conditions.
•
A short time interval gives the driver lim-
ited reaction time if an unexpected situa-
tion occurs in traffic.
Choosing how Pilot Assist maintains
the time interval to the vehicle ahead
*
The driver can select different drive modes to
determine the way in which Pilot Assist tries to
maintain the set time interval to the vehicle
ahead. This setting is made using the
DRIVE
MODE
control on the tunnel console.
Select one of the following:
•
Eco
: Pilot Assist focuses on optimal fuel
economy, which may result in a longer time
interval to the vehicle ahead.
•
Comfort
: Pilot Assist focuses on maintain-
ing the set time interval to the vehicle ahead
as smoothly as possible.
•
Dynamic
: Pilot Assist focuses on maintain-
ing the set time interval to the vehicle ahead
as precisely as possible, which can result in
faster acceleration and more immediate
braking.
See also the article "Drive modes" for additional
