be activated when the programmed
HomeLink
Ÿ button is depressed.
•Glow not constant: The indicator lamp
flashes quickly for approx. 2 seconds
and then changes over to a constant
glow for approx. 3 seconds. This proc-ess is repeated for approx. 20 seconds
and indicates that the device has a "roll-
ing code". The garage door, gate or sim-
ilar is not activated when the pro-
grammed HomeLink
Ÿ button is
depressed. Continue the programming
in accordance with the following.
5.

Adapting driving characteristics
04
166* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Active chassis (Four-C)*
Active chassis, Four-C (Continously Controlled
Chassis Concept), regulates the characteris-
tics of the shock absorbers so that the car's
driving characteristics can be adjusted. There
are three settings: Comfort, Sport and
Advanced.
ComfortThis setting means that the car is perceived as
being more comfortable on rough and uneven
road surfaces. Shock absorption is soft and the
movement of the body is smooth and gentle.
SportThis setting means that the car is perceived as
being more sporty and is recommended for
more active driving. Steering response is faster
than in the Comfort mode. Shock absorption is
harder and the body follows the road in order
to reduce rolling during cornering.
AdvancedThis setting is only recommended on very even
and smooth road surfaces.
The shock absorbers are optimised for maxi-
mum roadholding and rolling in bends is further
minimised.
Operation
Chassis settings.
Use the buttons in the centre console to
change setting. The setting in use when the
engine is switched off is activated next time the
engine is started.
Speed related power steering*
Steering force increases with the speed of the
car to give the driver enhanced sensitivity. The
steering is firmer and more immediate on
motorways. Steering is light and requires no
extra effort when parking and at low speed.
The driver can choose between three different
levels of steering force for road responsiveness
or steering sensitivity. Go to the menu system
MY CAR and locate Settings
Car settings
Steering wheel force and select Low,
Medium or High.
For a description of the menu system, see
page 142. This menu cannot be accessed
while the car is in motion.

Speed limiter
04

169 General information on the speed
limiter
A speed limiter can be regarded as a reverse
cruise control - the driver regulates the speed
using the accelerator pedal but is prevented
from accidentally exceeding a pre-selected/set
speed by the speed limiter.
Operation
Steering wheel keypad and display.
Speed limiter - On/Off.
Standby mode ceases and stored speed
resumes - each extra press gives +1 km/h.
Standby mode.
Activate and adjust the maximum speed
(each press gives +/-5 km/h).
Stored maximum speed (in brackets =
Standby mode).
Switch on and activateWhen the speed limiter is
active the display will show its
symbol in combination with
the set maximum speed.
Selection and storage of the
highest possible speed in the
memory can be made both during a journey
and while stationary.
While driving1. When the car is moving at the desired high-
est possible speed: Press the steering
wheel button
to switch on the speed
limiter.
> The symbol for the speed limiter is illu-
minated on the instrument panel dis-
play.
2. Press one of the steering wheel buttons
or until the instrument panel display
shows the desired maximum speed.
> The speed limiter is then active and the
display (5) shows the maximum speed
selected and the maximum speed
stored in the memory.
When stationary1.
Press the steering wheel button to
switch on the speed limiter.
2.
Scroll with the
button until the instru-
ment panel display shows the desired
maximum speed.
> The speed limiter is then active and the
display (5) shows the maximum speed
selected and the maximum speed
stored in the memory.
Temporary deactivation - standby modeTo temporarily deactivate the speed limiter and
set it in standby mode:

Press
.
> The display shows the stored maximum
speed in brackets (5) and the driver can
temporarily exceed the set maximum
speed.
The speed limiter is re-activated by one
press on
at which the display's
brackets disappear and the car's maxi-
mum speed is again limited.
Temporary deactivation with the
accelerator pedal
The speed limiter can also be set in standby
mode with the accelerator pedal, e.g. for rap-
idly accelerating the car out of a situation:

Adaptive cruise control*
04
174* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
NOTE
If any cruise control button is held
depressed for more than approx. 1 minute
then cruise control is disengaged. The
engine must be switched off in order to reset
cruise control.
In certain situations, cruise control cannot
be activated. Then the display shows
Cruise control Unavailable, see
page 179.
Set time intervalDifferent time intervals to the
vehicle in front can be
selected and shown in the
display as 1-5 horizontal lines
- the more lines the longer the
time distance. One line corre-
sponds to approximately
1 second, 5 lines approximately 2.5 seconds.
The time interval is increased or decreased
with the steering wheel keypad's thumbwheel
(or the buttons
/ for cars without Speed
limiter).
At low speed, when the distances are short, the
adaptive cruise control increases the time
interval slightly.The adaptive cruise control allows the time
interval to vary noticeably in certain situations
in order to allow the car to follow the vehicle in
front smoothly and comfortably.
Note that a short time interval only allows the
driver a short time to react and take action if
any unforeseen traffic problem should arise.
The number of lines for the
selected time interval is
shown during the setting itself
and for several seconds after-
wards. Then a smaller scale
version of the symbol is
shown to the right of the dis-
play. The same symbol is also shown when
Distance Alert is activated, see page 181.
NOTE
Only use the time interval that is allowed in
accordance with local traffic regulations.
If cruise control does not seem to react to
activation the reason may be that the time
interval to the closest vehicle prevents an
increase in speed.
The higher the speed, the longer the calcu-
lated distance in metres for a specific time
interval.
Temporary deactivation - standby mode
Press the steering wheel button to tempo-
rarily disengage the cruise control and set it in
standby mode - set speed is shown in brackets
in the display, e.g.
(100).
Keypad without Speed limiter
Press the steering wheel button to tempo-
rarily disengage cruise control and set it in
standby mode.
Standby mode due to driver interventionCruise control is temporarily disengaged and
set in standby mode if:
•the foot brake is used
•the clutch pedal is depressed for longer
than 1 minute4
•the gear selector is moved to N position
(automatic gearbox)
•the driver maintains a speed higher than
the set speed for longer than 1 minute
The driver must then regulate the speed.
A temporary increase in speed with the accel-
erator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not
affect the cruise control setting - the car returns
to the last stored speed when the accelerator
pedal is released.
4Disengaging and selecting a higher or lower gear does not involve standby mode.
