RESUMING THE SPEED AND
FOLLOW MODE
RESUME should only be used if the
driver is aware of the set speed and
intends to return to it.
By pressing the RESUME button after ACC has
been cancelled, for example, after braking, the
ACC will become active again provided that the
set speed memory has not been erased. The
original set speed will be resumed (unless a
vehicle ahead causes the follow mode to
become active) and the set speed will be
displayed in the message centre for four
seconds.
HINTS ON DRIVING WITH ACC
The system acts by regulating the speed of the
vehicle using engine c ontrol and the brakes.
Gear changes may occur in response to
deceleration or accele ration whilst in ACC.
ACC is not a collision avoidance system.
However, during some situations the system
may provide the driver with an indication that
intervention is required.
An audible alarm will sound, accompanied by
the message DRIVER INTERVENE if the ACC
detects:
• A failure has occurred whilst the system is
active
• That using maximum ACC braking only is
not sufficient.
Note: ACC operates when the gear selector
lever is in position S or D.
Note: When engaged, the accelerator pedal
rests in the raised position. Fully release the
pedal to allow normal ACC operation.
Note: When braking is applied by the ACC, the
vehicle brake lamps will be switched on
although the brake pedal will not move.
DETECTION BEAM ISSUES
Detection issues can occur:
1. When driving on a different line to the
vehicle in front.
2. When a vehicle edges into your lane. The
vehicle will only be detected once it has
moved fully into your lane.
3. There may be issues with the detection of
vehicles in front when going into and
coming out of a bend.
In these cases ACC may brake late or
unexpectedly. The driver should stay alert and
intervene if necessary.

ACC MALFUNCTION
If a malfunction occurs during operation of the
system in cruise or follow modes, the ACC
system will switch off a nd cannot be used until
the fault is cleared. The message Driver
Intervene appears briefly and is then replaced
by the message Cruise Not Available . If
malfunction of the ACC or any related system
occurs at any other time, the message Cruise
Not Available will be displayed. It will not be
possible to activate the ACC system in any
mode.
Accumulations of dirt, snow or ice on the
sensor or cover may inhibit ACC operation.
Fitting of a vehicle front protector or metallised
badges may also affect ACC operation.
The ACC system relies on its radar to detect
objects and constantly scans ahead. If the
radar is unable to detect any objects ahead,
then ACC will be deactivated, the audible alarm
sounds and the message Driver Intervene
displays briefly. The message ACC Sensor
Blocked will then be displayed.
The same messages may also be displayed
while driving on open ro ads with few objects
for the radar to detect.
Clearing the obstruction fr om in front of the
sensor allows the system to return to normal
operation. If the obstr uction is present when
ACC is inactive (e.g. on initial starting or with
the ACC system switched off), the message
ACC Sensor Blocked will be displayed.
Tyres other than those recommended for your
vehicle, may have different sizes. This can
affect the correct operation of the ACC.
FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION
Limited detect ion and warning of objects
ahead, is provided duri ng ACC operation by the
ACC Forward Alert warning. The enhanced
forward alert feature additionally provides
warnings when ACC is not engaged; if an object
is detected close ahead, then the warning tone
and message will be issu ed. The brakes will not
be applied.
The forward alert system does not initiate any
action. The driver must take appropriate action
when the Forward Alert message is displayed.
However, the system monitors driver actions
(e.g. braking, steering or indicating) and may
not initiate the warning display if the
appropriate action has been taken early
enough.
Press the button to switch Forward alert on or
off.
When the warning lamp in the
instrument panel is on, Forward
alert is active.
