Managing Cruise Control speedCruise Control (CC 29
) can be set to various
speeds.
Setting/changing set speed
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
For vehicles with only CC
–Change a set speed by pressing the (1)
or
(3) buttons briefly or by pressing and
holding them:
• Press briefly
: Press briefly: each press
changes the speed in +/- 1 mph (+/- 1 km/h) increments.
• Press
and hold: Release the button when
the set speed indicator (4) has moved tothe desired speed. •
The most recently set speed will be stored.
If speed is increased by depressing the accelera- tor pedal while pressing the
(1) button on
the steering wheel, the vehicle's speed when the button is pressed will be stored as the set speed. Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera- tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, willnot affect the setting. The vehicle will return tothe set speed when the accelerator pedal isreleased.
For vehicles with both CC and ACC
–Change a set speed by pressing the (1)
or
(3) buttons briefly or by pressing and
holding them:
• Press briefly
: Press briefly: each press
changes the speed in +/- 5 mph (+/- 5 km/h) increments.
• Press
and hold: Release the button when
the set speed indicator (4) has moved tothe desired speed.
• The most recently set speed will be stored.
If speed is increased by depressing the accelera- tor pedal while pressing the
(1) button on
the steering wheel, the vehicle's speed when the button is pressed will be stored as the set speed. Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera- tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, will not affect the setting. The vehicle will return tothe set speed when the accelerator pedal isreleased.
Using engine braking instead of
applying the brakes
Cruise Control regulates speed by lightly applyingthe brakes. On downgrades, it can sometimes bedesirable to roll a bit faster and let speed bereduced instead by engine braking alone. Thedriver can temporarily disengage the Cruise Con-trol braking function. To disengage CC:
–Press the accelerator pedal about halfway down and then release it.
> Cruise Control will automatically disen- gage the automatic brake function and speed will only be reduced using theengine braking function.
How drive mode affects cruise controlThe way the cruise control maintains the vehicle'sspeed can vary depending on the selected drive mode 30

Adaptive Cruise Control *
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 40
) helps the
driver maintain a constant speed with a set time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Adaptive Cruise Control helps provide a more relaxed driving experience on long trips on high-ways or long, straight roads with even trafficflows.
The camera/radar sensor measures the distance to the vehicle ahead 41
.
The driver sets a speed and a time interval to the vehicle ahead. If the camera/radar sensor detects a slower-moving vehicle ahead, your vehicle's speed will be automatically adapted according to the set time interval to that vehicle. When there are no longer slower-moving vehicles ahead, thevehicle will return to the set speed.
WARNING
•
The Adaptive Cruise Control function is supplementary driver support intended tofacilitate driving and help make it safer –it cannot handle all situations in all traffic,weather and road conditions.
• The driver is advised to read all sectionsin the Owner's Manual about this functionto learn of its limitations, which the drivermust be aware of before using the func-tion (see the link list at the end of thisarticle).
• Adaptive Cruise Control is not a substi-tute for the driver's attention and judg-ment. The driver is always responsible forensuring the vehicle is driven in a safemanner, at the appropriate speed, with anappropriate distance to other vehicles,and in accordance with current trafficrules and regulations.
NOTE
Depending on market, this function may be either Standard or Optional.

Standby mode due to action by the driver
Adaptive Cruise Control will be temporarily deac- tivated and put in standby mode if:
• the brakes are applied.
• the gear selector is moved to
N
• the vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute
Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera-
tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, willnot affect the setting. The vehicle will return tothe set speed when the accelerator pedal isreleased.
Automatic standby mode
Adaptive Cruise Control is dependent on other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control (ESC 49
). If any of these other systems stops
working, Adaptive Cruise Control will automati- cally switch off.
WARNING
With automatic standby mode, the driver is warned by an acoustic signal and a messageon the instrument panel. • The driver must then regulate vehicle speed, apply the brakes if necessary, andmaintain a safe distance to other vehicles. Adaptive Cruise Control may go into standbymode if:
• your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and ACC cannot determine if thevehicle ahead is stationary or if it is anotherobject, e.g. a speed bump.
• your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so thatACC no longer has a vehicle to follow.
• the driver opens the door.
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt.
• the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
• one or more of the wheels lose traction.
• the brake temperature is high.
• the parking brake is applied.
• the camera/radar sensor is covered by snowor heavy rain (the camera lens/radar wavesare blocked)
Reactivating Adaptive Cruise Control from standby mode
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
To reactivate ACC from standby mode:
–Press the button on the steering wheel
(1).
> Speed will be set to the most recently stored speed.
WARNING
A noticeable increase in speed may follow when the speed is resumed with the
steering wheel button.

Switching target vehicles withAdaptive Cruise Control
At certain speeds, models with automatic trans- missions and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 53
)
can switch target vehicles.
Switching target vehicles
If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be stationary traffic ahead.
When Adaptive Cruise Control is actively follow- ing another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h
(20 mph) and switches targets from a moving vehicle to a stationary vehicle, Adaptive CruiseControl will brake for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING
When Adaptive Cruise Control follows another vehicle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h
(20 mph) and changes target vehicle – from a moving vehicle to a stationary one – Adaptive Cruise Control will ignore the stationary vehi-
cle and instead accelerate to the stored speed. • The driver must then intervene and apply the brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching
targets
Adaptive Cruise Control will be disabled and go into standby mode:
• if your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and Adaptive Cruise Control cannotdetermine if the target object is a stationaryvehicle or another object, e.g. a speed bump.
• if your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so thatAdaptive Cruise Control no longer has a vehi-cle to follow.

Automatic braking with AdaptiveCruise Control The Adaptive cruise control (ACC 54
) has a spe-
cial brake function in slow traffic and while sta- tionary.
Braking function in slow traffic and at a standstill
In slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stop- ped at a traffic light, driving will resume automati-cally if the vehicle is stopped for less thanapprox. 3 seconds. If it takes more than 3 sec-onds for the vehicle ahead to begin moving again,Adaptive Cruise Control will go into standbymode and the Auto-hold brake function will acti-vate.
–Adaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated in one of the following ways:
• Pressing the
button on the steering
wheel keypad.
• Pressing the accelerator pedal.
> Adaptive Cruise Control will resume fol- lowing the vehicle ahead if it begins to move within approx. 6 seconds.

Cruise control Adaptive Cruise Control
A WHITE symbol: The function is active. GRAY symbol: Standby mode
Switching from ACC to CCTo do so: 1. Press the
button on the steering wheel
keypad to put Adaptive Cruise Control in standby mode. 2.
Tap the
Cruise Control button in the center
display's Function view. The button's indica- tor will change from GRAY to GREEN.
> The symbol in the instrument panel will
change from
ACC to CC, indicating that Adaptive Cruise Con- trol is off and Cruise Control is in standbymode.
3. Pressing the
button on the steering
wheel keypad.
> Cruise Control will start and the vehicle's current speed will be set.
WARNING
Switching from ACC to CC means that the vehicle:
• will no longer maintain a preset time interval to the vehicle ahead.
• will only follow the stored speed and thedriver must therefore apply the brakeswhen necessary.
If CC is active when the engine is turned off, ACC
will be automatically activated the next time theengine is started.

Pilot Assist
Pilot Assist helps the driver keep the vehicle in the current traffic lane by providing steeringassistance and maintaining an even speed and aset time interval to the vehicle ahead.
How Pilot Assist worksThe Pilot Assist function is primarily intended for use on highways and other major roads where itcan help provide a more comfortable and relaxingdriving experience.
The camera/radar sensor monitors the distance to the vehicle ahead and detects lane markings 61
.
Camera and radar sensor
Distance monitor
Lane marker line monitors The driver sets the desired speed and distance to the vehicle ahead. Pilot Assist monitors the dis-tance to the vehicle ahead and the traffic lane'sside markers using the camera and radar sensor.The system maintains the set time interval to thevehicle ahead by automatically adjusting yourvehicle's speed and keeps your vehicle in its laneby providing steering assistance. Pilot Assist's steering assistance is based on monitoring the direction of the vehicle ahead andthe traffic lane's side marker lines. The driver canoverride Pilot Assist's steering recommendationsat any time and steer in another direction, e.g. tochange lanes or avoid obstacles on the road. If the camera/radar sensor cannot detect the lane's side marker lines or if Pilot Assist is unablefor some other reason to clearly interpret thelane, Pilot Assist will temporarily deactivate steer-ing assistance until it can once again interpretthe lane markings. However, the speed and dis-tance warnings will remain active.
WARNING
Pilot Assist is deactivated automatically and resumes working without prior notice.
The color of the steering wheel symbol indicates the currentstatus of steering assistance: • GREEN indicates that steer- ing assistance is active • GRAY (as shown in illustra-
tion) indicates that steering assistance is deacti- vated.

–Press the
◀ button on the steering wheel (3).
> Pilot Assist is turned off and Adaptive Cruise Control will go into active mode.
WARNING
• With Pilot Assist in standby mode, the driver must intervene and steer and regu-late both speed and distance to the vehi-cle ahead.
• If the vehicle comes too close to a vehicleahead when Pilot Assist is in standbymode, the driver is instead warned of theshort distance by the Distance Alert func-tion.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
Pilot Assist will be temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode if:
• the brakes are applied.
• the gear selector is moved to
N
• a turn signal is used for more than 1 minute.
• the vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute
Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera-tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, willnot affect the setting. The vehicle will return to the set speed when the accelerator pedal isreleased. When the turn signals are used, Pilot Assist's steering assistance will be temporarily deacti-vated. When the turn signal is switched off, steer-ing assistance will be automatically reactivated ifthe traffic lane's side markings can still bedetected.
