NOTE
•
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.
•
If Pilot Assist does not seem to respond
with a speed increase when activated, it
may be because the time interval to the
vehicle ahead is shorter than the set time
interval.
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.
Setting how Pilot Assist should
maintain distance* to the vehicle ahead
The driver can choose different drive modes to
determine how Pilot Assist should maintain a
time interval to the vehicle ahead. Settings are
made using the DRIVE MODE controls.
Select one of the following:
•
Eco - Pilot Assist will focus on providing
optimal fuel economy, which will increase the
time interval to the vehicle ahead.
•
Comfort - Pilot Assist will focus on following
the set time interval to the vehicle ahead as
smoothly as possible.
•
Dynamic - Pilot Assist will focus on follow-
ing the set time interval to the vehicle ahead
more exactly, which could mean faster accel-
eration and heavier braking.
For more information, see "Drive modes".
Additional information is provided in the sections
"Managing Cruise Control speed" and "ECO
drive mode".
