Self-diagnosis and Compensation For Minor Horizontal Adjustments

External forces may change the alignment of the ACC sensor. A horizontal change leads to function limitations. (Function limitations encountered are, e.g.: reaction to vehicles in the next lane or late reaction to vehicles in the same lane).

Self-diagnosis allows the ACC sensor to compensate for minor horizontal adjustments of up to 1°.

If a horizontal adjustment of more than 1° is detected, the Active Cruise Control option will be deactivated and a fault will be stored in the fault memory. A check control message will be issued.
