The following conditions may lead the ACC
not to react:
●
If the accelerator is pressed.
●
If there is no gear engaged.
●
If the ESC is controlling.
●
If the driver is not wearing his/her seat
belt.
●
If several brake lights of the vehicle or elec-
trically connected trailer are damaged.
●
If the vehicle is reversing.
●
Driving faster than 160 km/h (100 mph).
WARNING
There is a danger of rear collision when the
minimum dist
ance to the vehicle in front is
exceeded and the speed difference between
both vehicles is so great that a speed reduc-
tion by the ACC will not suffice. In this case
the brake pedal should be applied immedi-
ately.
●
The ACC may not be able to detect all situa-
tions properly.
●
“Stepping” on the accelerator may cause
the ACC not to intervene in braking. Driver
braking will have priority over intervention by
the speed control or adaptive cruise control.
●
Always be ready to use the brakes!
●
Observe country-specific provisions gov-
erning obligatory minimum distances be-
tween vehicles.
Note
●
The programmed s
peed is erased once the
ignition or the ACC are switched off.
