Deactivating DTCPress the button again.
TRACTION and the indicator lamp in
the instrument cluster go out.
For better control The indicator lamp flashes: DTC con‐
trols the drive forces and brake forces.
The indicator lamp lights up: DSC and
DTC has failed.
DTC activated: The indicator lamp lights up and TRAC‐
TION appears in the instrument cluster.
DTC is activated.
Performance Control
Performance Control enhances the agility of
your vehicle. To enhance performance during
sporty driving, the rear wheel on the inside of the
curve is braked while the resulting braking effect
is largely compensated by engine intervention.
xDrive
xDrive is the all-wheel-drive system of your ve‐
hicle. The combined effects of xDrive and DSC
further optimize the traction and dynamic driv‐
ing characteristics. The 4-wheel drive system
xDrive variably distributes the drive forces to the
front and rear axle depending on the driving sit‐
uation and prevailing road conditions.
Hill Descent Control HDC
The concept
HDC is a downhill driving assistant that auto‐
matically controls vehicle speed on steep down‐
hill gradients. Without requiring brake applica‐
tion, the vehicle moves at slightly more than
twice walking speed.
You can activate the Hill Descent Control at
speeds below approx. 22 mph/35 km/h. When
driving downhill at below approx.
22 mph/35 km/h, the vehicle reduces its speed
to approx. twice walking speed and keeps it con‐
stant.
While you are actively braking, the system is on
standby. The system does not brake the vehicle
during this time.
Increasing or reducing speed
The speed can be changed in the range from
roughly twice walking speed to approx.
15 mph/25 km/h by pressing the accelerator or
brake pedal lightly.
A target speed within the same range can be
specified using the lever of the cruise control.1Increasing speed2Decreasing speedSeite 96ControlsDriving stability control systems96

Driving comfortVehicle equipment
This chapter describes all series equipment as
well as country-specific and special equipment
offered for this model series.Therefore, it also
describes equipment that may not be found in
your vehicle, for instance due to the selected
special equipment or the country version. This
also applies to safety-related functions and sys‐
tems.
Cruise control
The concept
The system is functional at speeds beginning at
approx. 20 mph/30 km/h.
The speed specified using the lever on the
steering column is maintained.
The system brakes on downhill gradients if en‐
gine braking action is insufficient.
Do not use cruise control
Do not use the system if unfavorable con‐
ditions make it impossible to drive at a constant
speed, for instance:▷On curvy roads.▷In heavy traffic.▷On slippery roads, in fog, snow or rain, or on
a loose road surface.
Otherwise, you could lose control of the vehicle
and cause an accident.◀
One lever for all functions1Storing and maintaining speed or accelerat‐
ing2Storing and maintaining speed or deceler‐
ating3Deactivating cruise control4Resuming a speed stored beforehand
Maintaining current speed
Push, arrow 1, or pull, arrow 2, the lever to the
resistance point.
The car's current speed is stored and main‐
tained. It is displayed on the speedometer and
briefly in the instrument cluster.
On uphill gradients, it may prove impossible to
maintain the set speed if current engine power
output is insufficient. If the engine braking effect
is insufficient on downhill slopes, the system will
brake the vehicle slightly.
Increasing desired speed
Repeatedly press the lever to the resistance
point or beyond, arrow 1, until the desired speed
is reached.
▷Each time the lever is pressed to the point of
resistance, the desired speed increases by
approx. 1 mph/1 km/h.▷Each time the lever is pressed beyond the
resistance point, the desired speed is in‐
creased by up to 5 mph/10 km/h.Seite 98ControlsDriving comfort98
Online Edition for Part no. 01 40 2 914 595 - VI/12

The system stores and maintains the speed.
Accelerating using the lever
Accelerating slightly:
Press the lever to the resistance point, arrow 1,
until the desired speed is reached.
Accelerating significantly:
Press the lever beyond the resistance point, ar‐
row 1, until the desired speed is reached.
The vehicle accelerates without pressure on the
accelerator pedal. The system stores and main‐
tains the speed.
Decreasing speed
Repeatedly pull the lever to the resistance point
or beyond, arrow 2, until the desired speed is
displayed.▷Each time the lever is pulled to the resist‐
ance point, the desired speed is decreased
by approx. 1 mph/1 km/h.▷Each time the lever is pulled beyond the re‐
sistance point, the desired speed is reduced
by up to 5 mph/10 km/h until the minimum
speed of 20 mph/30 km/h is achieved.
The system stores and maintains the speed.
Deactivating cruise control
Push the lever upwards or downwards, arrow 3.
The displays in the speedometer go out.
In addition, the system is automatically deacti‐
vated when:
▷The brakes are applied.▷Selector lever position N is engaged or
transmission position D is disengaged.▷When DTC is activated or DSC is deacti‐
vated.▷When DSC or ABS is intervening.
Cruise control is not deactivated by depressing
the accelerator pedal. Once the accelerator
pedal is released, the stored speed is achieved
again and maintained.
Warning lamp
The warning lamp comes on when
cruise control has been deactivated as
a result of DSC intervention, for exam‐
ple. A message appears on the Control Display.
Resuming a speed stored beforehand
Press the button, arrow 4. The last stored speed
is resumed and maintained.
In the following cases, the stored speed value is
deleted and cannot be called up again:▷When driving stability control systems inter‐
vene.▷When selector lever position N is engaged
or transmission position D is disengaged.▷When the ignition is switched off.

If the display --- mph or --- km/h appears briefly,
conditions may not be adequate to operate the
system.

Malfunction The warning lamp lights up. The sys‐
tem is malfunctioning or has failed.
