Using passing assistance
WARNING
Passing assistance can assist the driver when
passing other vehicles. The function can be
used with Adaptive Cruise Control* or Pilot
Assist*.
Passing assistance can be used with Adap-
tive Cruise Control* or Pilot Assist*. Several
conditions must be met for passing assis-
tance to be possible.
The function is supplementary driver
support intended to facilitate driving
and help make it safer – it cannot han-
dle all situations in all traffic, weather
and road conditions.

In order to activate passing assistance:
How passing assistance works
your vehicle must be following a vehicle
ahead (target vehicle)
•
•
•
When Adaptive Cruise Control or Pilot Assist
is following another vehicle and you indicate
that you intend to pass that vehicle by using
the turn signal51, the system will begin accel-
erating toward the vehicle ahead before your
vehicle has moved into the passing lane.
The driver is advised to read all sec-
tions in the Owner's Manual about this
function to learn of its limitations,
which the driver must be aware of
before using the function.
your vehicle's current speed must be
at least 70 km/h (43 mph)
the set speed must be high enough to
safely pass another vehicle.
Driver support functions are not a sub-
stitute for the driver's attention and
judgment. The driver is always respon-
sible for ensuring the vehicle is driven
in a safe manner, at the appropriate
speed, with an appropriate distance to
other vehicles, and in accordance with
current traffic rules and regulations.
The function will then delay a speed reduction
to avoid early braking as your vehicle
approaches a slower-moving vehicle.
To start passing assistance:
–
Turn on the left turn signal.
> Passing assistance will start.
The function remains active until your vehicle
has passed the other vehicle.
WARNING
Please note that this function can be acti-
vated in more situations than just passing
another vehicle, such as when a direction
indicator is used to indicate a lane change
or before exiting to another road – the vehi-
cle will then briefly accelerate.
