System limits
9 Warning
The system's automatic brake
force does not permit hard braking
and the braking level may not be
sufficient to avoid a collision.
● After a sudden lane change, the
system needs a certain time to
detect the next preceding
Driving and operating
vehicle. So if a new vehicle is
detected, the system may
accelerate instead of braking.
● The adaptive cruise control only
considers traffic driving in the
same direction.
● The adaptive cruise control does
not consider pedestrians, cyclists
and animals for braking and
driving off.
● The adaptive cruise control does
not consider stationary vehicles.
As the radar's field of detection is
quite narrow, it is possible that the
system may not detect:
● vehicles of reduced width, e.g.
motorcycles, scooters
● vehicles not running in the middle
of the lane
● vehicles entering a corner
● vehicles suddenly pulling out or
in
● vehicles ahead braking
excessively
