exit or before the entry.
Vehicle path changes
If another vehicle enters your driving
path, adaptive cruise control will first
consider the vehicle when it is
completely in your path. Be ready to
take action and press the brake
pedal, if you need to brake more
quickly.
Hill and trailer considerations
System performance on hills depends
on vehicle speed, vehicle load, traffic
conditions and the road gradient. It
may not detect a vehicle in your path
while driving on hills. On steep hills,
you may have to use the accelerator

brake to maintain or reduce your
speed.
Note that applying the brake

recommended to use adaptive cruise
control on steep hills.
