Description
The predictive cont rol 1 l uses the map info rma ­
tion from the navigation system in order to react proactive ly when driving. Information from the
cam era-based traffic sign recognition * is a lso ap ­
plied to recognize traffic
signs ¢ page 97. When
coming up to areas wi th speed limits or changes
in the course of the road (such as curves, inter­
sections or traffic c ircles), the system brakes au ­
tomatically and then accelerates back up to the
set speed .
Overriding control
The driver can override the predict ive control at
a ny time by press ing the accelerator or brake
pedal. If the system changes the vehicle speed to
adapt to speed limits, you ca n cha nge the speed
usi ng the lever
¢ page 106, fig. 105 .
Always switch off the predictive control in
the following situations:
- When increased atte ntion is needed from the
drive r.
- In poor weat her cond it ions such as snow or
heavy ra in.
- When driving on roads in poor condition .
Indicator in the instrument cluster display
When switching on the adaptive cru ise cont rol
for the first time, the message
ACC: R + B ac­
ti ve
in the instrument cluste r indicates the ava il­
ab ility of the predictive control.
T he
'?·;SOmh symbo l appears when the system
is reg ulating the speed to match a speed lim it. If
this is the case, the system is regulating a speed
of SO mph (80 km/h) . The speed is then taken
over by the adaptive cru ise control. The speed in

your veh icle when pred ictive cont rol is
sw itched on. The driver is always responsi­
ble for assessing the traffic situation.

- The permitted speed can be exceeded if the
adaptation to a speed lim it is incorrect . The
