active cruise control
This systems allows, in addition to maintaining your vehicle's speed at a value that you have defined,   the   inter-vehicle   time   you   have   selected   between   your   vehicle   and   the   one   ahead   to   be  
m

aintained.Principles of operation
Using a radar with a range of about 100 metres, located   at   the   front   of   the   vehicle,   this   system  
d

etects   a   vehicle   running   in   front   of   your  
v

ehicle.
It
  automatically   adapts   the   speed   of   the   vehicle  
t

o   that   of   the   vehicle   in   front.
If
  the   vehicle   in   front   is   running   more   slowly,  
t

he   system   progressively   reduces   the   speed   of  
y

our   vehicle   using   just   engine   braking   (as   if   the  
d

river   had   pressed   the   "-"
  button).
If
  your   vehicle   is   too   close   to   or   approaching  
t

oo   quickly   the   vehicle   in   front,   the   cruise  
c

ontrol   is   automatically   deactivated.   The  
d

river   is   then   alerted   by   an   audible   signal,  
a

ccompanied   by   a   message.
If
  the   vehicle   in   front   accelerates   or   changes  
l

ane,   the   active   cruise   control   progressively  
a

ccelerates your vehicle to return to the
programmed
 s

peed.
If
  the   driver   operates   a   direction   indicator   to  
t

he   left   (left   hand   drive)   or   the   right   (right   hand  
d

rive),   to   overtake   a   slower   vehicle,   the   active  
c

ruise   control   allows   your   vehicle   to   temporarily  
a

pproach the vehicle in front to assist the
overtaking
 ma

noeuvre,
 t
hough
 n
ever
 e
xceeding
 t

he   programmed   speed.
