Adaptive cruise control* - set time
interval
The adaptive cruise control (p. 199) (ACC –
Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead.
Different time intervals to the
vehicle in front can be
selected and shown in the
combined instrument panel
as 1-5 horizontal lines - the
more lines the longer the
time interval. One line corre-
sponds to approximately 1 second to the
vehicle in front, 5 lines
approximately 3 seconds.
To set/change the time distance:
•
Turn the steering wheel button set's
thumbwheel (or use the
/ buttons for
cars without Speed limiters).
At low speed, when the distances are short,
the adaptive cruise control increases the time
interval slightly.
The adaptive cruise control allows the time
interval to vary noticeably in certain situations
in order to allow the car to follow the vehicle
in front smoothly and comfortably.
Note that a short time interval only allows the
driver a short time to react and take action if
any unforeseen traffic problem should arise.
The same symbol is also shown when Dis-
tance Alert (p. 214) is activated.
NOTE
Only use the time intervals permitted by
local traffic regulations.
If Cruise Control does not appear to react
when activated, this may be because the
time distance to the car in front is prevent-
ing an increase in speed.
The higher the speed the longer the calcu-
lated distance in metres for a given time
interval.
Read more about how you manage the
speed (p. 203).
