Distance Alert*
Introduction
Distance Alert is part of Adaptive Cruise Con-
trol and is a function that provides information
about the time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Distance Alert is active at speeds above
approximately 20 mph (30 km/h). Time interval
information is only given for a vehicle that is
driving ahead of your vehicle in the same direc-
tion. No information is provided for vehicles
driving toward you, moving very slowly, or at a
04
standstill.
A smaller section of the red warning light in the
windshield glows steadily if your vehicle is
closer to the one ahead than the set time inter-
val.

speed of your vehicle.
