Distance Alert*1

The Distance Alert2 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 or Pilot Assist 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.
