All of the vehicle's systems remain active when
the engine is switched off automatically.
The engine can be switched off automatically
a maximum of four times (initial stop, then
three subsequent stops) in succession. The
Idle Stop/Start symbol is shown in yel-
low in the vehicle information display after
the engine has been started automatically
for the fourth time. When the
Idle
Stop/Start symbol is shown in green in the
vehicle information display, automatic engine
switch-off is again possible.
NOTE
If the hood is opened while the engine is run-
ning and the Idle Stop/Start function is op-
erational, the engine will switch off auto-
matically.
If the vehicle is brought to a standstill in D or
N, the Idle Stop/Start function switches off
the engine automatically.
AUTOMATIC ENGINE START
The engine is started automatically if:
•You switch off the Idle Stop/Start func-
tion by pressing the ECO button.
•You engage Reverse R or Drive D.
•You unfasten your seat belt or open the
driver's door.
•The vehicle starts to roll.
•The brake system requires this.
•The temperature in the vehicle interior de-
viates from the set range.
•The system detects moisture on the wind-
shield when the air-conditioning system is
switched on.
•The battery's charge status is too low.
The engine is started automatically if you:
•Release the brake pedal in transmission
position D (Drive) or N (Neutral).
•Depress the accelerator pedal.
•Move the transmission out of position P
(Park).
Shifting the transmission to position P (Park)
does not start the engine.
If you
shift the transmission from R (Reverse)
to D (Drive), the Idle Stop/Start function is
available again once the
Idle Stop/Start
symbol reappears in green in the vehicle infor-
mation display.

If not all conditions for automatic engine
switch-off are met, theIdle Stop/
Start symbol is lit yellow in the vehicle infor-
mation display. If this is the case, the Idle
Stop/Start function is not active.

tion. The engine will then not be switched off
automatically when the vehicle stops.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use of the LDW system
could result in serious personal injury or
death. The LDW system will not steer the
vehicle or prevent loss of control. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely, keep the vehicle in the traveling
lane, and be in control of the vehicle at all
times.
The LDW system warns the driver with a
warning light and intermittent steering vibra-
tion that the vehicle is beginning to leave the
traveling lane.The LDW system uses a camera
1installed
behind the windshield to monitor the lane
markers of your traveling lane.

ADisplay area
BMenu barThe LDW system operates at speeds of ap-
proximately 40 MPH (60 km/h) and above,
when the lane markings are clear.If the system detects that the vehicle's front
wheel has passed over the lane marking, a
warning will be provided. It will warn you by
means of intermittent vibration through the
steering wheel for up to 1.5 seconds and a
visual alert.
NOTE
The LDW system is designed not to warn
when you operate the lane change signal and
change traveling lanes in the direction of the
signal.
No warning vibration occurs if you activate
the turn signals. In this event, the warnings
are suppressed for a certain period of time.

WARNING
•If you fail to adapt your driving style,
cruise control can neither reduce the risk
of an accident nor override the laws of
physics. Cruise control cannot take into
account road, weather or traffic condi-
tions. Cruise control is only an aid. You
are responsible for the distance to the
vehicle in front, for vehicle speed, for
braking in good time, and for staying in
lane.
•Always observe the posted speed limits
and do not set the speed over them.
•Do not use the cruise control when driv-
ing under the following conditions. Do-
ing so could cause a loss of vehicle con-
trol and result in an accident.
–When it is not possible to keep the
vehicle at a constant speed
–When driving in heavy traffic
–When driving in traffic that varies
speed
–When driving in windy areas
–When driving on winding or hilly
roads
–When driving on slippery (rain, snow,
ice, etc.) roads
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
1Store the current speed or a higher speed
2Store the current speed, or if a speed has
previously been stored, call up the last
stored speed.
3Store the current speed or a lower speed
4Deactivate the cruise control system
When you activate cruise control, the stored
speed is shown in the vehicle information
display for five seconds.
Activation conditions
To activate cruise control, all of the following
activation conditions must be fulfilled:
•The electric parking brake must be re-
leased.
•You are driving faster than 20 MPH
(30 km/h).
•VDC must be switched on, but not inter-
vening.
Storing, maintaining and calling up
a speed
Storing and maintaining the current speed:
You can store the current speed if you are
driving faster than 20 MPH (30 km/h):
1. Accelerate the vehicle to the desired
speed.
2. Briefly press the cruise controller lever up
1or down3.
3. Remove your foot from the accelerator
pedal.
Cruise control is activated. The vehicle auto-
matically maintains the speed.
NOTE
Cruise control may be unable to maintain the
stored speed on uphill gradients. The stored
speed is resumed when the gradient evens
out. Cruise control maintains the stored
speed on downhill gradients by automati-
cally braking the vehicle.

ICC SYSTEM OPERATION
1Speedometer
2Distance warning light
3Vehicle information display
4Cruise control lever
The ICC system is intended to enhance the
operation of the vehicle when following a
vehicle traveling in the same lane and direc-
tion.
If the distance sensor
Adetects a slower
moving vehicle ahead, the system will reduce
the vehicle speed so that your vehicle follows
the vehicle in front at the selected distance.
The ICC system maintains a selected distance
from the vehicle in front of you within the
speed range of 0 to 125 MPH (0 to
200 km/h) up to the set speed. The set speed
can be selected by the driver between 20 to
125 MPH (30 to 200 km/h).The vehicle travels at a set speed when the
road ahead is clear.
The ICC system is designed to maintain a
selected distance from the vehicle in front of
you and reduce the speed to match a slower
vehicle ahead. The system will decelerate the
