ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (7/7)
Limitation of the system operation
– A vehicle travelling in the opposite direction will not trigger any alert or any action on the system operation.
– The sensor area should be kept clean and free of any modifications in order to ensure the proper operation of the
system.
– Fixed obstacles (vehicles at a standstill, traffic jams, toll booths, etc.) or objects travelling at low speed or of a small size
(motorbikes, bicycles, pedestrians, etc.) may not be detected by the system.
– A vehicle entering the same lane will only be detected once it has entered the detection zone. Sudden or late braking may
then take place.
– When entering a bend or curve, the sensor may temporarily no longer detect the vehicle in front, and this may lead to ac-
celeration.
– When exiting a curve, the detection of the vehicle in front may be affected or delayed. Sudden or late braking may then take
place.
– A slower vehicle travelling in an adjacent lane may be detected and cause a slowing down if one of the two vehicles is trav-
elling too close to the lane of the other.
– The system is deactivated below around 20 mph (40 km/h). Drivers must react accordingly.
– Sudden changes in situation are not instantly taken into account by the system. Drivers must remain vigilant at all times and
under all circumstances.
Deactivating the function
The function should be deactivated if:
– the brake lights are not functioning;
– the front of the vehicle has undergone an impact or been damaged;
– the vehicle is being towed (breakdowns);
– traffic is heavy;
– the vehicle is travelling in a tunnel;
– the vehicle is travelling on a windy road;
– the vehicle is travelling on a slippery road or in poor weather conditions (fog, snow, rain, side winds etc.).
If the driver notices abnormal system behaviour, please consult an authorised dealer.
