control must not be used in heavy
traffic, on winding or slippery
roads (black ice, aquaplaning,
gravel) or during bad weather
(fog, rain, side winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.
Based on information from a camera,
the adaptive cruise control function
gives you the option of maintaining a
selected speed, known as the cruising
speed, while keeping a safe distance
from the vehicle in front in the same
lane.
The system controls acceleration and
deceleration of your vehicle using the
engine and braking system.
