Important safety notes

If you fail to adapt your driving style or

become distracted, the driving safety sys-

tems can neither reduce the risk of accident

nor override the laws of physics. Driving

safety systems are merely aids designed to

assist driving. You are responsible for the dis-

tance to the vehicle in front, for vehicle speed

and for braking in good time. Always adapt

your driving style to suit the prevailing road,

weather and traffic conditions and maintain a

safe distance from the vehicle in front. Drive

carefully.
