der to maintain the set speed, the
system applies limited braking. In
the event of a steep descent, for
example in a mountainous area,
you must select a lower gear to
benefit from engine braking.
To reduce the load imposed on
the braking system and to prevent
the brakes from overheating, the
adaptive cruise control function
may be temporarily interrupted
and the "Check adaptive cruise
control" message appears. The
message disappears when the
function becomes available again.
If the message remains, contact
an approved dealer.
Operating faults
If an operating fault is detected on one
or more components of the system,
the adaptive cruise control function is
interrupted.
