Applies to: vehicles with adaptive cruise a:

Fig. 84 Example: vehicle changing lanes and stationary ve-
hicte
Fig. 85 Example: driving into a curve
In some situations, the adaptive cruise assist
function is limited and you must assume control
of the vehicle when necessary, for example by ap-
plying the brakes.
— If a vehicle that is already detected @ turns or
changes lanes, the system cannot react to the
vehicle ahead of it @in all cases.
—When driving into a curve ® fig. 85 and out of a
curve, the system may react toa vehicle in the
neighboring lane and apply the brakes. You can
override the system by pressing the accelerator
pedal briefly.
~The system works with the various sensors and
cameras in the vehicle. Vehicles can only be de-
tected once they are within the area and range
covered by the sensors © page 116, fig. 76.
When driving around tight curves, a vehicle
driving
ahead that was previously detected may
no longer be detected, and the system may ac-
celerate unexpectedly.
~The system does not react to a stationary vehi-
cle in the same lane if it expects that you can
easily drive around the stationary vehicle by
turning the steering wheel.
~The system cannot react to stationary objects,
such as vehicles at the end of a traffic jam, es-
pecially when traveling at high speeds.
— The system has a limited ability to detect
vehicles that are a short distance ahead, off to
the side of your vehicle, or moving into your
lane.
— Objects that are difficult to detect, such as mo-
torcycles, vehicles with high ground clearance,
or vehicles with an overhanging load, may be
detected late or not detected at all.
~The system does not respond to people, ani-
mals, or objects that are crossing or approach-
ing from the opposite direction
