Setting the time interval for Distance Warning1
The Distance Warning function can be set with different time intervals.
Different time intervals to the vehicle in front can be selected and shown in the driver display as 1-5 horizontal lines - the more lines the longer the time interval. One line represents about 1 second to the vehicle in front, 5 lines represents about 3 seconds.
The same symbol is also shown when the adaptive cruise control function is activated.
