Adaptive cruise control (Adaptive Cruise Control
- ACC) or Pilot Assist can assist the driver when
overtaking other vehicles.
When ACC or Pilot Assist is following another
vehicle and the driver indicates the intention to
overtake by activating the direction indicator
6
,
adaptive cruise control or Pilot Assist helps by
accelerating the car towards the vehicle ahead
before the car reaches the overtaking lane.
The function then delays reducing speed in order
to avoid premature braking when the driver’s car
is approaching a slower vehicle.
The function remains active until the driver’s vehi-
cle has cleared the overtaken vehicle.
WARNING
Be aware that this function can be activated
in more situations other than during overtak-
ing, e.g. when a direction indicator is used to
indicate a change of lane or exit to another
road - the car will then accelerate briefly.
Starting Overtaking Assistance
The following conditions must exist for Overtak-
ing Assistance to be activated:
•
there must be a vehicle in front (the “target
vehicle”)
•
the speed must be at least 70 km/h
(43 mph)
•
the stored speed for ACC or Pilot Assist
must be high enough for overtaking to take
place safely.
