the speed regulation range is limited to a
maximum difference of 20 mph (30 km/h)
between the speed setting and the speed of the
vehicle in front.
Above this, the system goes into pause if the
safe distance becomes too low.
th
e active cruise control uses only engine
braking to slow the vehicle. Consequently the
vehicle looses speed slowly, as when releasing
the accelerator pedal.
th
e system is paused automatically:
-
i
f the vehicle in front slows down to much
or too suddenly, and the driver does not
brake,
-
i
f a vehicle comes between your vehicle
and the vehicle in front,
-
i
f the system does not slow the vehicle
enough to continue to maintain a safe
distance, for example when descending a
steep hill.
Limits of operation
As the radar's field of view is quite narrow, it is
possible that the system may not detect:
th
e cruise control does not take account of:
-
s
tationary vehicles,
-
v
ehicles driving in the opposite direction.
-
v
ehicles of reduced width, such as
motorcycles, for example,
-
v
ehicles not running in the middle of the
lane, -
v
ehicles entering a corner,
-
v
ehicles changing lane at the last moment.

the vehicle to be determined relative to tall
obstacles (for example: other vehicles, ...).
Some deformation of the image is normal.
th

circumstances be a substitute for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
th

completed with parking sensors.
th

of the vehicle (the difference corresponds to
the width of your vehicle without the mirrors).
th
e red lines represent a distance of about
30 cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear

th
e green lines represent distances of about
1
and 2 metres beyond the edge of your
vehicle's rear bumper.
The turquoise blue curves represent the
maximum turning circle.
Clean the reversing camera regularly using a
soft, dry cloth.
