Adaptive Cruise Control* - Queue
Assist
The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive
Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain an
even speed and a safe distance from the vehi-
cle ahead. Queue Assist also provides the
Adaptive Cruise Control with enhanced func-
tionality at speeds below 30 km/h..
In cars with automatic gearbox the adaptive
cruise control is supplemented with the
Queue Assist function (also referred to as
"Queue Assist").
Queue Assistant has the following functions:
Extended speed range - also below
30 km/h and when stationary
Change of target
Automatic braking ceases when station-
ary
Automatic activation parking brake.
Note that the lowest programmable speed for
the adaptive cruise control is 30 km/h - even
though it is capable of following another vehi-
cle down to a standstill, a lower speed can-
not be selected.
Extended speed range
NOTE
In order to activate the cruise control the
driver's door must be closed and the driver
must be wearing the seatbelt.
With an automatic gearbox, the adaptive
cruise control can follow another vehicle
within the range 0-200 km/h.
NOTE
Activation of the cruise control below
30 km/h requires a vehicle in front within a
reasonable distance.
For shorter stops in connection with inching
in slow traffic or at traffic lights driving is
automatically resumed if the stops do not
exceed about 3 seconds - if it takes longer
before the car in front starts moving again
then the Adaptive cruise control is set in
standby mode with automatic braking. The
driver must then reactivate it in one of the fol-
lowing ways:
Press the steering wheel button
or
Depress the accelerator pedal.
>
The cruise control will then resume fol-
lowing the vehicle in front.
07 Driver support
NOTE
Queue Assist can hold the car stationary
for a maximum of 4 minutes - then the
parking brake is applied and Cruise Con-
trol is disengaged.
The driver has to release the parking
brake before the cruise control can be
reactivated.
Change of target
If the target vehicle in front suddenly turns then
there may be stationary traffic in front.
When the adaptive cruise control is following
another vehicle at speeds below 30 km/h and
changes target from a moving to a stationary
vehicle, the cruise control will slow down for
the stationary vehicle.
