The functionality of Distance Alert may be reduced in certain situations. The function is only available in vehicles that can display information on the windshield with a head-up display*.

  • The detection capability may be affected by the size of the vehicle, e.g. motorcycles, which can cause the warning light to come on at a shorter time interval than that set or cause the warning to be temporarily absent.
  • Very high speeds can cause the light to come on at a shorter time interval than that set due to limitations in the range of the radar unit.

* Option/accessory.
