Distance control




Distance control is a function that informs of the time interval to the vehicle in front.
If the time interval is less than the distance that has been set, the driver is informed of this via a continuously lit light indication in the windscreen. The light indication is generated by the visual collision warning indicator (27/2). Distance control is based on target data taken from Forward Looking Radar (FLR).
The function is activated via the switch for distance control, which is located in the centre console or via the menu system in the infotainment control module (ICM) (3/281). If there is no switch, activation can only be made via the menu system in the ICM.
The time interval and setting of this is the same as adaptive cruise control and is carried out using the arrow buttons in on the steering wheel. Distance control can only be active when the adaptive cruise control is off or in stand-by mode.
The distance control function can be active at speeds greater than 30 km/h.
