switched on. You are always responsible for your speed and the
di stan ce between your vehicle and other vehicles.
• For safety r easons , the cruise control should not be used in the
city, in stop-and-go traffic , on twisting roads and when road
conditions are poor ( such as ice , fog, gravel, heavy rain and hydro
planing ) -risk of accident .
• Turn off the cruise control temporarily when enter ing turn
lanes , highway exit lane s or in construction zone s.

& WARNING (continued)
• Please note that inadvertently "resting" your foot on the accel
erator pedal causes the cruise control not to brake. This is because
the cruise control is overridden by the driver's acceleration.
[ i] Tips
The brake lights illuminate as soon as the brakes decelerate automatically. •
Changing speed
-Press lever in the
0 or O direction=> page 126, fig. 136
to increase or decrease your speed.
- Release the lever to save that speed.
Change speed in increments of 1 mph (1 km/h) by lightly pressing the
lever. If you keep the lever pressed down, you will alter your speed in
S mph (10 km/h) increments.
You can also press the accelerator pedal down to increase your speed,
e.g. if you want to pass someone. The speed you saved earlier will
resume as soon as you release the accelerator pedal.
If, however, you exceed your saved speed by S mph (10 km/h) for
longer than S minutes, the cruise control will turn off temporarily .
The green symbol in the display~
page 126, fig. 13 7 is replaced with
a white symbol. The saved speed remains the same.•

tions. Select a following distance to t he ve hicle ahead and ACC w ill
adjus t your speed to maintai n that d istance.
Adaptive Cruise Control has technica l limitations that you must k now,
so p le a se read this sectio n carefully, understa nd how the sy stem
works and use it p ro p erly at all ti mes.
How does it work?
You ca n op erate the Adaptive Cruise Control usi ng the lever on the
s teer ing wheel column ~
page 13 1, " H ow is the speed sto red?" and
~ page 133, " H ow is the distance set?" .
Driver information
Important information is bro ught up in the s peedometer and in the
i nst rumen t clust er displa y as the ve hicl e is be ing drive n~
pa ge 135,
"Driver informat io n".
What is important for you to know
T here are limits to what Adaptive Cr uise Contro l can do as the vehicle
is being drive n~
page 139 , "Sys tem lim itations".
& WARNING
Improper use of the Adaptive Cruise Control can cause collisions,
other accidents and serious personal injury.
• Always remember that the Adaptive Cruise Control has limits -
it will not slow the vehicle down or maintain the set distance when
you drive towards an obstacle or something on or near the road
that is not moving, such as vehicles stopped in a traffic jam , a
stalled or disabled vehicle.
• Always remember that the Adaptive Cruise Control cannot
detect a vehicle that is driving towards you in your traffic lane and
that it cannot detect nar row vehicles such as motorcycles and bicy
cles.
• Never drive at speeds that are too fast for traffic, road and
weather conditions.
• The Adaptive Cruise Control cannot slow
or brake the vehicle
safely when you follow another vehicle too closely. Always
remember that the Adaptive Cruise Control has a braking power
that is only about 30% of the vehicle 's maximum braking ability .
Always be prepared to brake and take ev asive action to avoid colli·
sions and other accident situations.
• Never allow the closing speed between you and other vehicles
to be so high that the Adaptive Crui se Control may not be able to .,

__________________________________________ A_ d_ a_,_ p_t _iv _ e_C_ r_u _i _ s _e _C_ o_n_ t_ r_ o_ l __ _
& WARNING (continued)
slow your veh icle safely. If clos ing speed is too high , you must
apply the brake s your self to reduc e the ri sk of a rear-end cra sh .
• Never re st you r foot on the accelerator pedal , especially when
the Adaptive Cruise Control is being used. Pressure on the acceler
ato r will override the ACC braking function and prevent the brakes
from being applied when ACC detects a situation when the brakes
must be applied.
• Never use Adaptive Cruise Control when you cannot drive safely
at a steady speed, including on city st reets , on winding roads or
when road conditions are poor (for example , on ice, gravel , in fog,
heavy rain or on wet roads that increase the ris k of hydroplaning ).
• The radar sensor's
vision can be reduc ed by rain, snow and
heavy road spray . These and similar conditions can prevent vehi
cle s up ahead from being accurately detected and in some cases
they may not be detected at all . Do not use ACC when the radar
sen sors cannot ac curately detect vehicles moving ahead of you in
traffic .
• Alway s turn off Adaptive Crui se Control when entering turn
lanes , exit lanes and construction zones o r in similar situat ions
because the vehicle will automatically ac celerate to the stored
speed when the road ahead is clear .
• To prevent unintended operation , always switch ACC off when
it is not being used .
[ i] Tips
• For safety reasons, the stored speed is deleted when the ignition
i s turned o ff.
• When Adapt ive Cruise Control is switched on, the Electronic Stabi
li zation Program ( ESP) is also automa tica lly activ ated.
• Damage caused by accidents and some minor collisions can affect
th e rad ar senso r se ttings and ca use the syste m to m alfunction o r
switch off completely.
Controls and equip

In winter conditions, you should check the radar sensor cover
be fore drivi ng to m ake su re it is free of i ce and s now. If ne cessa ry,
clean the area near the radar sensor carefully=>

page 139. Things that are
not moving in your lane and in yo ur direction o f travel will no t be
detected . The sensor measures the distance to reflective su rfaces
that m ust have a certain s ize. The system responds only after the

Vehicles moving in your direction can be detected up to a distance of
about 140 yards (130 meters) but the Adaptive Cruise Control cannot
detect vehicles that are stopped or stalled, obstacles that do not
move or narrow vehicles like motorcycles and bicycles .
Open road
When the road is clear, Adaptive Cruise Contro l works like cruise
control. It maintains a constant target speed specified by the driver.
Driving in traffic
If a slower vehicle driving ahead is detected, the Adaptive Cruise
Control decelerates (within the limits of the system) =>
page 139 to
its speed and after adjusting, tries to maintain the set distance from
the vehicle ahead. The vehicle may temporarily drive slower than the
set speed while adjusting=>
& in ''Description " on page 128 .
If the vehicle in front accelerates, Adaptive Cruise Control a lso acce l
erates up to the speed that you have set.
Situations requiring driver intervention
In some situat ions you will have to use the foot brake and slow the
vehicle down in order to keep a safe distance from vehicle in front of
you or to avoid a rear-end co llision . In this situation, a symbo l
appears and a warning tone sounds =>
page 135.
Passing another vehicle
If you move into the passing lane and no vehicle is detected ahead,
Adaptive Cruise Contro l accelerates to the speed you have set and
maintains it.
Overriding ACC
You can increase your speed at any time by stepping on the acceler
ator pedal. After you release the accelerator pedal, the system
adjusts back down to the speed you previously set.
& WARNING
• Never rely on the distance control feature of ACC alone to
prevent rear-end collisions . Always be prepared to brake and take
evasive action to avoid collisions and other accident situations.
• Never allow the closing speed between you and other vehicles
to be so high that the Adaptive Cruise Control may not be able to
slow your vehicle safely. If closing speed is too high, you must
apply the brakes yourself to reduce the risk of a rear-end crash.
(I] Tips
Please note that the amount of acceleration the Adapt ive Cru ise
Control uses depends on the Distance setting selected. DISTANCE 1
gives you acceleration that is dynam ic and sporty. DISTANCE 4, on the
other hand, gives more moderate acce leration. For more information
about the time intervals =>
page 133, "Ho w is the distance set?". •
