What can Audi adaptive cruise control do?
The adaptive cruise control works in conjunc-
tion with a radar sensor installed in the front
of the vehicle¢ page 92, fig . 103, which is
subject to designated system limits
¢ page 94. Stationary objects are d isregard-
ed .
On open roads with no traffic, adaptive cruise
control works like a regular cruise control sys-
tem. The stored speed is maintained. When
approaching a moving vehicle detected up
ahead, the adaptive cruise control system au -
tomatically slows down to match that vehi-
cle's speed and then maintains the distance
that the driver previously stored. As soon as
the system does not detect a vehicle up
ahead, adaptive cruise control accelerates
back up to the stored speed.
Which functions can be controlled?
When you switch adaptive cruise contro l on,
you can set the current speed as the "control
speed"

ahead and set the adaptive cruise control driv-
ing program ¢page 96.
