This distance is always set when

If the system is deactivated, then it is nec-
essary for the driver to actively intervene
by braking and possibly swerving. Otherwise,
there is the danger of an accident.<

Background lighting
You can switch off the backlighting of the
speedometer and tachometer when the system
is deactivated if no other functions are being
displayed, e.g. the pre-warning field in the
tachometer, refer to page 75, or the route guid-
ance of the navigation system.
Use good judgment to select the appro-
priate following distance given road con-
ditions, traffic, applicable laws and driving rec-
ommendations for safe following distance.
Otherwise, a violation of the law or the danger of
an accident could result.<
To do so, press the lever up or down for approx.
1 second.
