Adapting The Speed To The Route; Adapt Speed Automatically To Route; Traffic Light Detection - BMW iX Owner's Handbook Manual

Adapting the speed to the
route
Principle
The system can be configured so that with active
distance control, the vehicle adapts the speed
automatically to the route.
For example, the speed is reduced in the
following situations if necessary:
▷ Before turning off.
▷ Before a roundabout.
▷ Before a bend.
▷ In front of an exit junction on motorways or
motorway-like roads.
Safety note
WARNING
The system does not relieve you of your per‐
sonal responsibility to assess the traffic situa‐
tion correctly. Due to system limitations, it can‐
not respond independently and appropriately in
all traffic conditions. There is a risk of accident.
Adapt your driving style to the traffic conditions.
Observe the traffic situation and intervene ac‐
tively if the situation warrants it.
Additionally, the Cruise Control, distance control
and Assisted Driving notices apply.
For further information:
▷ Cruise Control, see page 231.
▷ Distance control, see page 233.
▷ Assisted Driving, see page 239.
Operating requirements
Depending on the situation, different functional
requirements must be met:
▷ Cruise Control and distance control are acti‐
vated.
▷ Driving on a motorway or a similar road.
