What can Audi adapt ive cruise cont rol do?
The adaptive cruise control works in conjunc -
tion with a radar sensor installed in the front
of the vehicle ¢page 99, fig. 110, which is
subject to desig nated system limits
<=:> page 101 . Stationary objects are disregard-
ed .
On open roads with no traffic, adaptive cruise
control works like a regular cruise contro l sys-
tem. The stored speed is maintained . When
approaching a moving vehicle detected up
ahead, the adaptive cruise control system au-
tomat ica lly slows down to match that vehi -
cle's speed and then maintains the distance
that the dr iver previously stored . As soon as
the syst em does not detec t a vehicle up
ahead, adaptive cruise cont rol accelerates
back up to t he stored speed .
Which functions can be controlled?
When you switch adapt ive cruise control on,
you can set the current speed as the "contro l
speed " ¢ page 102, Switching on and off.
When dr iving, you can stop cru ise contro l
¢ page 103 or change the speed ¢page 103
at any time.
You can also set the distance to t he object
ahead and set the adapt ive cru ise control driv-
ing program
