Driver Alert Control (DAC)*
Up to 90% of all traffic accidents are caused by driver distraction. Driver Alert Control
is a unique technology that can help alert a tired or distracted driver at speeds over 40
mph. Using signals from a digital camera to monitor the road ahead along with data
from steering wheel movements, DAC can compare erratic behaviour to your normal
driving style. If DAC detects that you begin to drift within your lane, you receive an
audible warning. At the same time, a message is displayed in the instrument panel
suggesting it might be time for a break.
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)*
At speeds over 40 mph, Lane Departure Warning can help prevent single-vehicle road
departures as well as collisions caused by temporary distraction. This function uses
the digital camera to register the lane markings and help monitor the car’s position on
the road. If you weave out of your lane, LDW will alert with an audible signal. If you
intentionally cross a lane marker using the direction indicators, LDW is not activated.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Distance Alert*
Helping the driver to keep a safe distance from vehicles in front at speeds over 20
mph, ACC is a supportive partner for a more relaxed driving experience on long
journeys and motorways. Just select the desired speed and the minimum time gap to
the vehicle in front. When the radar sensor detects a slower vehicle in front, the speed
automatically adapts to that vehicle. And when the road is clear, the car resumes the
selected speed. If ACC is disengaged and a vehicle in front comes too close, Distance
Alert activates a red warning light in the lower section of the windscreen to help you
keep a proper distance.
Collision Warning with Auto Brake (CWAB)*
Primarily designed for highway driving, CWAB can warn you if you’re too close to a
vehicle in front and – if a collision can’t be avoided – can activate the brakes to help
mitigate the impact. Within a range of 500 feet, a radar sensor behind the grille and a
digital camera behind the windscreen continuously monitor the distance to the vehicle
driving in front of you. If the vehicle suddenly brakes (or is stationary) and Collision
Warning senses that a collision is likely to happen, it will alert you to act with a flashing
red warning light on the windscreen along with an audible alarm. Moreover, this
technology supports driver-initiated braking by pre-charging the brakes to quickly
prepare for panic braking and help shorten the reaction time. If you don’t react to the
warning and a collision is imminent, the brakes will activate automatically.
