Distance Alert*

The Distance Alert1 function can help the driver become aware if the time interval to the vehicle in front is too short.

However, the vehicle must be equipped with a head-up display in order to display the Distance Alert, which will then be indicated by a symbol on the windshield as long as the time interval to the vehicle ahead is shorter than the set time interval.

Distance Alert is active at speeds above 30 km/h (20 mph) and only reacts for vehicles ahead moving in the same direction as your vehicle. No distance information is provided for oncoming, slow-moving or stationary vehicles.

 Note

  • Distance Alert is only available in vehicles that can display information on the windshield with a head-up display.
  • Distance Alert is deactivated while Adaptive Cruise Control is active.

 Warning

Distance Alert only reacts of the time interval to the vehicle ahead is shorter than the preset value – vehicle speed is not affected.

 Note

Depending on market, this function may be either Standard or Optional.
