Avoid undertaking on the right
1)
If a vehicle is detected in the left lane that is
travelling at a speed slower than that set by
the driver, it will brake the vehicle within the
comfort limits of the system to avoid passing it
on the right ›››Fig.119.
You can cancel this regulation by pressing the
accelerator pedal.
The function works at speeds over 80km/h
(50mph). It may not be available in certain
countries.
Overtaking
When the turn signal is switched on for over-
taking, the ACC reduces the distance from the
vehicle in front to help with the overtaking ma-
noeuvre. The set cruising speed will not be ex-
ceeded.
The function works at speeds over 80km/h
(50mph). It may not be available in certain
countries.
Stop&Go function
The ACC can bring the vehicle to a standstill if
the vehicle in front stops.
The ACC remains active and the message ACC
ready to start is displayed on the instrument
cluster for a few seconds. You can extend or
reactivate this warning by pressing the but-
ton or by grabbing the wheel if your vehicle is
tted with Travel Assist. During this time, the
vehicle will move o again if the vehicle in front
moves forwards.
To move o when the message ACC ready to
start is not longer displayed, once the vehicle
in front has moved o:
●
Press the accelerator pedal.
●
OR: press the button on the multifunc-
tion steering wheel.

hicle has Travel Assist.
The ACC does not remain active in the follow-
ing cases:

The stopping phase lasts for several minutes.
●
When a vehicle door is opened.

If the ignition is switched o.
Stopped vehicles
ACC can react to stopped vehicles up to a
speed of approximately 60km/h (37mph),
provided that the stopped vehicle is recog-
nised. ACC will comfortably brake to a stop
behind the vehicle, within the limits of the sys-
tem.
The response to stopped vehicles depends on
the vehicle’s equipment and is not available in
all countries.
