ACC symbol within VC

[markyboy75]

Hi all,
I enable active cruise assist , however I don’t see a symbol on my virtual cockpit to tell me it’s on , or as some might say in standby/ ready mode. The manual refers to a symbol of a Speedo with an arrow, yet this doesn’t appear on my virtual cockpit. I’m guessing the symbol is for the standard instrument cluster , but was wondering if there’s suppose to be a symbol when you have the virtual cockpit. Many Thanks in advance . Mark

When cruise control is on you get the mentioned symbol below the speedo. Activated by pressing the button on the end of the cruise stalk.

Ah Ok, I don’t think that appears on mine. Does it matter what view in the virtual cockpit you have , as I normally have the 2 small dials view set rather that the 2 larger ones ? Thanks

No. It will still appear

Ok Thanks , I think I may have an issue as I don’t see the Speedo symbol with the arrow. I do however get a red line around the Speedo and a green arrow pointing inwards at a certain point in the Speedo

That could be it then. I don’t have acc only cc. When it’s active does the car hold a speed?

Should look something like this

Oh yes it all seems to work but wasn’t sure how you would really now it’s on as in ready as the manual keeps referring to a speedometer with a green arrow pointing in that displays on the instrument cluster , I guessed it was probably related to the standard instrument cluster and not the vc . Thanks

Thanks for this I did notice this , but unless I’m missing something couldn’t see anything that indicates the stalk was pulled forward and in ready mode as the book keep referring to the symbol that I don’t get . I guess the red ring around the Speedo is the indication which does make sense but was just checking with all you guys . Thanks again for all your help guys .

From memory I think the most noticeable thing is the green marker for the set speed, ie no 1 in the diagram above.

I use the digital speed display rather than the dials and when you turn on the ACC it shows the set speed as numbers rather than green marker on a dial which is much clearer.

The VC has quite a few combinations so its worth having a look at how the different assistance systems show in each of different main displays
