Driver assistance

@) Tips
— When setting the distance, the driver is re-
sponsible for adhering to any applicable le-
gal regulations.
— Depending on the selected driving program
and distance, driving behavior when acceler-
ating may vary from moderate to sporty
= page 162, Adjusting the adaptive cruise
assist.
— The distances provided are specified values.
Depending on the driving situation and how
the vehicle ahead is driving, the actual dis-
tance may be more or less than these target
distances.
Overriding control
Applies to: vehicles with adaptive cruise assist

RAZ-0096



Fig. 108 Lever: overriding the control
Requirement: the adaptive cruise assist must be
switched on.
Overriding control
You can completely override the control, for ex-
ample when passing or if you would like to accel-
erate more quickly.
> To accelerate manually, pull the lever toward
you in the direction of the arrow and hold it
there, or press the accelerator pedal.
> To resume the usual cruise control, release the
lever or remove your foot from the accelerator
pedal.
When you are in the Driver assistance display,
the message Overridden will appear.
Decreasing the distance
The function decreases the set distance and pro-
vides assistance, for example when merging
when a lane is ending.
> To further reduce the distance to the vehicle
ahead temporarily, pull the lever toward your-
self in the direction of the arrow and hold it in
that position.
> To resume the system control, release the lever.
The adaptive cruise assist reduces the distance
and, if necessary, accelerates the vehicle above
the set speed. When you are in the Driver assis-
tance display, the message Overridden will ap-
pear.

ZA\ WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 138.
— Resting your foot on the accelerator pedal
could override the cruise control. Braking in-
terventions and corrective actions by the
system may not occur.

your vehicle may brake and remain at a stop if a
vehicle driving ahead stops.

Driver assistance

Lane guidance - If lane guidance is also active
when adaptive cruise assist control is active, you
can switch it on or off.
Driving program - Depending on the driving pro-
gram and the distance that are set, the vehicle
handling will be adjusted from Sport to Moder-
ate and the lane guidance haptic feedback will be
adjusted.
Store last distance - The last distance that was
set will be stored after the ignition is switched
off. If the distance is not stored, distance
(time distance of approximately 1.8 seconds) is
automatically preset every time the ignition is
switched on.
Predictive control > Set speed limit - adaptation
to speed limits can be switched On or Off. Regu-
lation With tolerance can also be selected, if de-
sired. In this scenario, you may fall below or ex-
ceed the set speed in favor of increased efficien-
cy.
Predictive control > Adjustment to curves along
route - regulation based on the road ahead can
be switched Off or set individually from Slow to
Fast. The setting influences vehicle handling with
predictive control, for example the speed for
driving through curves.

a | or is displayed when there is a malfunc-
tion, the adaptive cruise assist functions may be

functions such as assistance in narrow areas will
not be available. Under certain circumstances,
some objects may be detected late or may not be
detected at all. Be especially careful. Cleaning
the area in front of the sensors > page 140 may
correct the malfunction.
