are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment
is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may
cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required
to correct the interference at his own expense.

Operating principle of adaptive cruise
control
No vehicle detected in front – open road
driving
Adaptive cruise control operates like a cruise
control system. The desired speed that was set is
maintained constantly.
Vehicle detected in front – driving in traffic
If a vehicle travelling ahead of you in the same lane
is detected as driving slower than the selected
desired speed, adaptive cruise control will
automatically maintain a set distance from the
vehicle in front.
If the vehicle in front stops, adaptive cruise control
will slow your vehicle down to a stop provided this
is possible within the control limits of the system.
Adaptive cruise control actively keeps your vehicle
at a standstill.
If the vehicle in front drives off, automatic speed
control and distance control can be resumed.
