Introduction
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is an optional
system designed to assist the driver by main-
taining a set speed or a set distance to the
vehicle ahead. It is primarily intended for use
on long straight roads in steady traffic, such as
on highways and other main roads.
WARNING
•
Do not use the adaptive cruise control
system in demanding driving conditions
such as city traffic, winding roads, at
intersections, on slippery surfaces, in
poor visibility, heavy rain, etc.
•
Maintenance of cruise control compo-
nents must only be performed by an
authorized Volvo workshop.
WARNING
•
Adaptive cruise control cannot cover all
driving situations and traffic, weather
and road conditions. The Function sec-
tion provides information about limita-
tions that the driver must be aware of
before using the adaptive cruise con-
trol.
•
This system is designed to be a supple-
mentary driving aid. It is not, however,
intended to replace the driver's atten-
tion and judgement. The driver is
responsible for maintaining a safe dis-
tance and speed and must intervene if
adaptive cruise control does not main-
tain a suitable speed or suitable dis-
tance.
