Radar sensor
Warning lamps
The display flashes and a chime
sounds.
The system asks you to intervene
by braking or with an evasive
maneuver. The active cruise control cannot
automatically restore the distance to the vehicle
driving ahead.
The display does not relieve you of the respon-
sibility for adapting desired speed and driving
style to traffic conditions.
Heavy rain and also dirt, snow, or ice can limit
the detection of vehicles ahead. If needed,
clean the radar sensor under the front bumper.
When doing so, be particularly careful in remov-
ing layers of snow and ice.
If the sensor is not aligned properly, the active
cruise control cannot be activated.
Automatic intervention by ABS or
DSC. The active cruise control
intervenes by braking until you
actively intervene.
Things to know about active cruise control
As with conventional cruise control sys-
tems, active cruise control in no way
ramps; during inclement weather such as snow,
strong rain or fog; or when entering inter-
changes, service/parking areas or toll booths.
It is also important to regulate your vehicle's
speed and distance setting within applicable
legal limits. Always be ready to take action or
apply the brakes if necessary, especially when
the system is actively following a vehicle in front
of you.<
diminishes or substitutes for the driver's own
personal responsibility, alertness, and aware-
ness in adjusting speed, braking, or otherwise
controlling the vehicle. The driver should
decide when to use the system on the basis of
road, traffic, visibility, and weather conditions.
Active cruise control is intended for use on
highway-type roadways where traffic is moving
relatively smoothly. Do not use this system in
city driving; heavy traffic such as during rush
hour; on curvy, winding roads, slippery roads or
roads with sharp curves such as highway off-
Always remember that the range and abil-
ity of the system do have physical limita-
tions. It will not apply the brakes or decelerate
your vehicle when there is a slow-moving vehi-
cle, stopped vehicle or stationary object ahead

This manual has been invaluable! My BMW did not have any manuals and I didn't have a clue on how to utilize the various features. I am learning more by the day and convinced without this manual I would not have enjoyed all the luxuries this beautiful machine has to offer.
