45 km/h.
● The Traction Control system is
operating.
● Electronic Stability Control is
operating.
● There is no traffic and nothing
detected on the road sides for
several minutes. In this case
there are no radar echoes and
the sensor may report that it is
blocked.
● The active emergency braking
system is applying the brakes.
● Driving on steep inclines.
● Radar sensor is blocked by an ice
or water film.

Driver's attention
● Use adaptive cruise control
carefully on bends or mountain
roads, as it can lose the vehicle
ahead and require time to detect
it again.
● Do not use the system on
slippery roads as it can create
rapid changes in tyre traction
(wheel spinning), so that you
could lose control of the vehicle.
● Do not use adaptive cruise
control during rain, snow or
heavy dirt, as the radar sensor
can be covered by a water film,
dust, ice or snow. This reduces or
completely suppresses the
