WARNING
If you do not maintain the minimum distance to a vehicle in front and the difference in speed
between the vehicle in front and your own vehicle is so great that the braking action of the ACC is
insufficient, you are in danger of colliding with the vehicle in front. The braking distance is also
longer in rain and winter road conditions.
ACC may not be able to detect all driving situations correctly.
Always be prepared to brake the vehicle yourself.
Speed and distance control are overridden when you press the accelerator. ACC does not brake
automatically in this case.
Observe any country-specific regulations relating to the minimum distance.
Always set a larger distance in wet or snowy conditions or when visibility is poor.
Some settings can be stored in the user accounts of the personalisation function and therefore
change automatically when the user account changes
