Abstract

A method for operating a forward-guiding driver assist system, in particular an ACC system, in a motor vehicle having a clutch pedal as a driver-operated actuator for manually operating a clutch and an additional clutch actuator includes the steps of performing with the driver assist system at least one driving intervention for controlling the speed of the motor vehicle, determining a desired clutch slip, when controlling the speed, and controlling the additional clutch actuator for automatically disengaging and engaging the clutch commensurate with the determined clutch slip.
