How Adaptive Cruise Control Works in Volkswagen Vehicles

Model: Volkswagen Volkswagen Various
Part: Onboard computer

In this video, you can see how adaptive cruise control works in Volkswagen vehicles: to activate it, the activation button is located on the control panel to the left on the steering wheel. The indicator light on the dashboard will illuminate, showing what the radar detects, with the highlighted dashes corresponding to one second of travel time for the car. The "set" button allows you to fix the car's speed; pressing the brake temporarily deactivates the system; to reactivate it, press the "res" button. The speed can be adjusted manually using the + and - buttons. The button with the car icon opens the assistant menu. The central button allows you to adjust the distance you want to maintain from the vehicle in front.
