WARNING
If you do not maintain the minimum distance to
the vehicle in front or if the difference in speed
between the vehicle in front and your own vehicle
is so great that the braking action of ACC is insuffi-
cient, you are in danger of colliding with the vehi-
cle in front. The braking distance is also longer in
rain and winter road conditions.
x
The Adaptive Cruise Control may not be able to
detect all driving situations correctly.
x
Always be prepared to brake the vehicle your-
self.
x
Speed and distance control are overridden when
you press the accelerator. The ACC does not
brake automatically in this case.
x
Observe any country-specific regulations relat-
ing to the minimum distance.
