* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
The same symbol is also shown when Adap-
tive cruise control (p. 205) is activated.
NOTE
The higher the speed the longer the calcu-
lated distance in metres for a given time
interval.
The set time interval is also used by the
function adaptive cruise control (p. 205).
Only use the time intervals permitted by
local traffic regulations.

Distance Warning* - limitations
This function, which uses the same radar
sensor as Adaptive cruise control (p. 204) and
Collision warning with auto brake (p. 229),
has certain limitations.
NOTE
Strong sunlight, reflections or strong varia-
tions in light intensity, as well as wearing
sunglasses, could mean that the warning
light in the windscreen cannot be seen.
Poor weather or winding roads could
affect the radar sensor's capacity to detect
vehicles in front.
The size of other vehicles could also affect
detection capacity, e.g. motorcycles. This
could mean that the warning lamp illumi-
nates at a shorter distance than the setting
or that the warning is temporarily absent.
Extremely high speeds can also cause the
lamp to illuminate at a shorter distance
than that set due to limitations in sensor
range.
For further information on radar sensor limita-
tions, see Radar sensor - limitations (p. 214)
and (p. 234).
