Setting a time interval for Distance

The Distance Alert function can be set to differ-
ent time intervals.
Different time intervals to the
vehicle ahead can be selected
and are shown in the instru-
ment panel as 1–5 horizontal
bars. The more bars, the longer
the time interval. One bar rep-
resents an interval of
approx. 1 second to the vehicle ahead. 5 bars
represents approx. 3 seconds.
The same symbol appears when the Adaptive
Cruise Control function is activated.

The greater the vehicles' speed, the
greater the distance between them for a
set time interval.

Only use the time intervals permitted by
local traffic regulations.

The set time interval is also used by the
Adaptive Cruise Control and Pilot Assist
functions.
WARNING

Only use a time interval suitable for the
current traffic conditions.
•
The driver should be aware that short
time intervals give them limited time to
react and act to any unforeseen traffic
situation.
