faster
than
vehicles
in
front,
for
examplewhen
rapidly
approaching
a
lorry.
If
a
vehicle
is
clearly
detected
in
front
of
you,
the
system
prompts
you
to
intervene
by
braking,
and
if
necj essary
by
taking
evasive
action.
Cornering
If
the
desired
speed
is
too
high
for
cornering,
itwill
be
reduced
slightly
in
the
bend.
However,
the
system
may
not
detect
bends
in
advance,
so moderate
your
speed
when
cornering.
The
system
has
a
limited
detection
range.
Situaj tions
can
arise
on
tight
bends
where
a
vehicle
driving
in
front
will
not
be
detected
or
will
be
dej
tected
very
late.
When
your
vehicle
is
approaching
a
bend,
the angle
of
the
bend
may
cause
the
system
to
rej
spond
temporarily
to
vehicles
in
the
other
lane.
If
the
system
responds
by
decelerating
the
vehicle,
you
may
compensate
for
this
by
accelerating
briefly.
When
the
accelerator
pedal
is
released
again,
the
system
will
resume
control
of
the
vehij cle's
speed.
Driving
off
The
vehicle
cannot
drive
off
automatically
in
some
situations,
for
example:'xOn
steep
upward
gradients.'xBefore
bumps
or
rises
in
the
road.
In
such
cases,
depress
the
accelerator
pedal.
Weather
The
following
restrictions
may
apply
if
the weather
or
lighting
conditions
are
unfavourable:
'xImpaired
detection
of
vehicles.'xBrief
interruptions
when
vehicles
have
alreadybeen
detected.
Examples
of
unfavourable
weather
or
lighting
conditions:
'xWet
roads.'xSnowfall.'xSlush.'xFog.'xOncoming
light.
Pay
attention
when
driving
and
respond
to
the
prevailing
traffic
conditions.
If
necessary,
interj vene
actively,
for
example
by
braking,
steering
ortaking
evasive
action.
Malfunction

The
system
cannot
be
activated
if
the
radar

if
it
