Active cruise control*

The concept

With active cruise control, you can select a

desired speed which is not only automatically

maintained when driving on open roadways, but

also varied to maintain a selected distance set-

ting as slower traffic is encountered.

Active cruise control is a technological advance

over the familiar cruise control and is a welcome

relief from the constant adjustment of speed

that can accompany driving in traffic on high-

ways or other high-speed thoroughfares. Espe-

cially on longer trips, the system can reduce

fatigue and tension, while increasing your

enjoyment of driving. Please use it safely and

responsibly.

Within the limits of its capability, the system

automatically adapts the car's speed to that of a

slower vehicle in front of you. You can specify

the distance to be maintained from the vehicle

in front in four stages. For safety reasons, the

distance is speed-dependent. Based on your

selected distance setting, the system automat-

ically decreases the throttle setting and lightly

applies the brakes if necessary. The vehicle

brake lamps will automatically illuminate to sig-

nal a following driver to take action. In addition,

it may be necessary for the vehicle or the driver

to downshift, depending on the kind of trans-

mission your vehicle is equipped with, to main-

tain the distance setting selected. If the vehicle

ahead speeds up or when the lane ahead
