Situ a tion re quiring o ve rrid e of A da pti ve C rui se C ontrol
In some situations you will have to use the foot brake and slow the
vehicle down to keep a safe distance to vehic le in front of you or to
avoid a rear -end co llision.
Pas sing a not he r v e h ic le
If you move into the passing lane and no vehic le is detected ahead,
Adaptive Cruise Contro l accelerates to the speed you have set and
maintains it.
Ov e rride
You can increase your speed at any time by stepping on the acceler-
ator pedal. After you release the accelerator pedal, the system auto-
mat ically adjusts back down to the speed you previously set.
[ i J Tips
Please note that the amount of acceleration the Adaptive Cruise
Control uses depends on the Distance setting selected . DISTANCE 1
gives you acceleration that is dynamic and sporty . DISTA NCE 4, on
the other hand, gives more moderate acce leration . You can find a
detailed description of the "time intervals" =>
page 143, "How is
distance set?". •
