System on/off, interrupt
Resume speed
The distance that the vehicle maintains to the
vehicle ahead of you can be varied.
Store speed
For safety reasons, it depends on the speed.
Increase distance
Change/maintain speed
Reduce distance
To maintain a certain distance, the system au‐
tomatically decelerates, applies the brakes
lightly, or accelerates again if the vehicle ahead
begins moving faster.
If the vehicle ahead of you brakes to a halt, the
system is able to detect this within the given
system limits. If the vehicle ahead of your drives
away again from a halt, your vehicle is able to
accelerate if operated accordingly.
Switching on/off and interrupting
cruise control
Switching on
Press the button on the steering wheel.
Even if some time passes before the vehicle
drives away again, the BMW can still be accel‐
erated automatically and simply.
The indicator lamps in the instrument cluster
light up and the marking in the speedometer is
set to the current speed.
As soon as the road is clear, it accelerates to the
desired speed.
Cruise control can be used.
The speed is also maintained on downhill gra‐
dients, but may not be maintained on uphill
slopes if engine power is insufficient.
When Active Cruise Control is activated, there
may be a program change in the Dynamic Driv‐
ing Control, refer to page 102.
Switching off
Deactivated or interrupted system
If the system is deactivated or interrupted,
actively intervene by braking and, if necessary,
with evasive maneuvers; otherwise, there is the
danger of an accident occurring.◀
If switching off the system while stationary, de‐
press the brake at the same time.
