The tips are only displayed when the cruise control* or adaptive cruise control* systems are switched off.

WARNING
Always direct your full attention to the road and surroundings, even when you are using the predictive efficiency assist. It is always the driver s responsibility to assess the traffic situation and take appropriate care.
Note
- The type of information displayed can vary depending on the driving mode currently selected in drive select* link► and on the current selector lever position (automatic gearbox*). More messages are shown in efficiency* mode. No tips are shown in position S or in dynamic mode.
- If a route has been entered in the navigation system*, that route will be used as reference for the tips given. If no route has been entered, the system uses an assumed route plan to predict the situation ahead.
- A tip is not given in every situation, for instance if the vehicle is too close to react to the event ahead.
- No tips are given at speeds below 30 km/h.
