Distance Warning*
34
The Distance Warning function can assist the
driver to notice that the time interval to the vehi-
cle ahead may be too short.
However, the requirement is that the car is
equipped with a Head-up display to be able to
show Distance Warning, which is then displayed
with a symbol on the windscreen as long as the
time interval to the vehicle ahead is shorter than
the preselected value.
Distance warning is active at speeds
above 30 km/h (20 mph) and only reacts to the
vehicle ahead travelling in the same direction. No
distance information is provided for oncoming,
slow or stationary vehicles.
NOTE
•
Distance Alert is only available on cars
that can display information on the wind-
screen with a Head-up Display.
•
Distance warning is deactivated during
the time the adaptive cruise control is
active.

35 The Distance Warning function is only available in cars that can show information on the windscreen with a so-called Head-up display.
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.

WARNING
Distance warning only reacts if the time win-
dow to the vehicle ahead is shorter than the
preset value – the speed of the driver's vehi-
cle is not affected.
NOTE
This function can come as either Standard or
an Option depending on the market.
