What can Audi adapt ive cruise cont rol do?
The adaptive cruise contro l wor ks in conju nc-
tion with a radar sensor installed in the front
of the vehicle¢ page 90, fig . 90, which is sub-
ject to designated system limits

page 92.
Stat ionary objects are disregarded .
On open roads w ith no traff ic, adaptive cruise
control works like a regular cruise control sys-
tern. The sto red speed is maintained . When
approaching a moving vehicle detected up
ahead, the adaptive cruise control system au-
tomat ically slows down to match that vehi-
cle's speed and then maintains the distance
t hat the dr iver previously stored . As soon as
the syst em does not detec t a vehicle up
ahead, adaptive cru ise cont rol accelerates
back up t o t he stored speed.
Which functions can be controlled?
