●VSC is activated.
●The sensor cannot operate correctly because it is covered in some way.
●The windshield wipers are operating at high speed.
●The driving mode is set to second start mode.
●Bad weather causes the detection function to become extremely unstable.

If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control driving is automatically canceled for any other
