Traffic Jam Assist
Description and oper
ation
Fig. 284 Related video
Traffic Jam Assist helps the driver keep the
car within its l
ane and t
o mo
v
e in conv
oy in
case of traffic congestion or slow traffic.
Traffic Jam Assist is an additional function of
Lane Assist
›››
page 284 and combines Lane
Assist functions with Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC)
›››
page 276. Therefore, it is essential
that you read these two chapters carefully
and note the limitations of the systems and
the information about them.
Operation of Traffic Jam Assist
At speeds of below 60 km/h (40 mph), Traffic
Jam Assist can maintain a (temporary) dis-
tance preset by the driver with respect to the
vehicle ahead and help stay within the lane
›››
.
T
o do this, the syst
em aut
omatically contr
ol
s
the accelerator, brakes and steering, and
slows the vehicle, stopping it fully if neces-
sary, when faced with a vehicle in front that
has stopped. It automatically moves off again
when the vehicle ahead moves.
Traffic Jam Assist is designed only for use on
motorways and wide roads. Therefore, never
use it in city traffic.
