The adaptive cruise control (ACC) provides a convenient feature that supports the rider.

M01878-10
Warning
Danger of accidents The adaptive cruise control function (ACC) is not suitable for all riding situations.
Area of application of the ACC
The rider is always responsible for safe operation of the vehicle.
The ACC is not for avoiding collisions.
The ACC is limited to approx. 50 % of maximum brake power.
No further automatic delay occurs after the minimum speed.
The ACC does not record objects with a high relative speed, e.g. stationary or oncoming vehicles.
The ACC does not record vehicles with a narrow silhouette, e.g. bicycles.
The selected cruise speed will not be reached if the engine power is not sufficient for a gradient.
The selected cruise speed will be exceeded if the engine braking effect and the ACC brake power are not
sufficient on an incline.
ACC detects vehicles ahead less well when the vehicle is at a sharp incline.
–
Always stay attentive and be ready to brake.
–
Intervene when ACC fails to detect a vehicle or obstacle, a warning is displayed on the dash or the
minimum speed is reached.
–
Do not use the ACC on winding roads.
–
Do not use the ACC on slippery road surfaces (e.g. rain, ice or snow), where there is poor visibility or
on unpaved surfaces (e.g. sand, stones or gravel).
–
Do not use the ACC in heavy traffic traffic with other vehicles frequently changing lanes or when rid-
ing in motorcycle groups.
–
Observe the legal minimum distance to vehicles driving ahead.
