ACC - Adaptive Cruise Control

WARNING
The ACC’s technology cannot overcome the
syst
em's inherent limitations or change the
laws of physics. If used negligently or invol-
untarily, it may cause serious accidents and
injuries. The system is not a replacement for
driver awareness.
●
Always be prepared to brake or accelerate.
●
If you press the accelerator pedal the ACC
will stop working. Therefore, it will not brake
or request any braking intervention.
●
Adapt your speed and safe distance to the
vehicle in front of you at all times to suit visi-
bility, weather, road and trac conditions.
●
Do not use the ACC in poor visibility, or on
roads that are steep, with lots of curves or
slippery.
●
Never use ACC when driving o-road or on
unpaved roads.
●
The system does not react in time to sta-
tionary obstacles (such as a trac jam
queue). React soon enough to avoid a haz-
ardous situation.
●
The system does not react to people, an-
imals or vehicles that are crossing or ap-
proaching in the opposite direction.
●
If you are driving with a spare wheel fitted,
the ACC system could automatically switch
o. Switch o the system when starting o.
●
Brake immediately if the ACC does not
slow down enough.
●
Brake immediately when a driver interven-
tion instruction is displayed on the instru-
ment cluster screen.
●
If the vehicle continues to move involuntar-
ily after a driver intervention prompt, brake
the vehicle.
Note
If the ACC does not work as described in
this chapt
er, do not use it until it has been
checked by a specialised workshop. Visiting
a SEAT dealership is recommended.
