Detection beam issues
E71621
Detection issues can occur:
• With vehicles that edge into your lane
that can only be detected once they
have moved fully into your lane (A).
Motorcycles may be detected late, or
not at all. (B)
• With vehicles in front when going into
and coming out of a bend (C). The
detection beam will not follow sharp
curves in the road.
In these cases the system may brake late
or unexpectedly. You should stay alert and
intervene if necessary.
Automatic braking with ACC
WARNINGS
You must take immediate action
once alerted, as the adaptive cruise
control braking will not be sufficient
to keep a safe distance to the vehicle in
front.
In some cases there may be no
warning or the warning may be
delayed. You should always apply
the brakes when necessary.
When following a vehicle in front of
you, adaptive cruise control will not
automatically decelerate to a stop.
The system will automatically brake for
you, if required to maintain the set gap
between your vehicle and the one detected
in front. This braking capacity is limited to
approximately 30% of the total manual
braking capacity to ensure smooth and
comfortable cruising. If the car needs to
brake more heavily than this, and you do
not intervene by braking manually, an
alarm will sound and a warning symbol will
be displayed in the cluster.
USING ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL
The system is operated by adjustment
controls mounted on the steering wheel.
