also displayed when Adaptive Cruise Control is
activated.
NOTE
•The higher your vehicle’s speed, the
greater the distance to the vehicle
ahead, measured in feet (meters), for a
given time interval.
•The set time interval is also used by
Adaptive Cruise Control, see page 167.
WARNING
Only use a time interval that is suitable in
current traffic conditions.
LimitationsThe Distance Alert function uses the same
radar sensor used by Adaptive Cruise Control
and the Collision Warning system. See page
168 for more information on the radar sensor’s
limitations.
NOTE
Strong sunlight, reflections, extreme light
contrasts, the use of sunglasses, or if the
driver is not looking straight ahead may
make the visual warning signal in the wind-
shield difficult to see.
WARNING
•Bad weather or winding roads may
affect the radar sensor’s capacity to
detect vehicles ahead.
•The size of the vehicle ahead, such as a
motorcycle, may also make it difficult to
detect. This may result in the warning
light illuminating at a shorter distance
than the one that has been set, or that
the light will not come on at all.
