Swerving vehicles
A vehicle driving in front of you is not detected
until it is completely within the same lane as
your vehicle.
Swerving vehicles
If a vehicle driving ahead of you suddenly
swerves into your lane, the system may not be
able to automatically restore the selected dis‐
tance. This also applies to major speed differ‐
ences to vehicles driving ahead of you, e.g.,
when rapidly approaching a truck. When a ve‐
hicle driving ahead of you is reliably detected,
the system requests that the driver intervene
by braking and carrying out evasive maneu‐
vers, if needed. You must react yourself; other‐
wise, there is the risk of an accident. ◀
Cornering
If the desired speed is too high for a curve, the
speed is reduced slightly, although curves can‐
not be anticipated in advance. Therefore, drive
into a curve at an appropriate speed.
In tight curves the system offers only restricted
detection where a vehicle ahead of you might
be detected late or not at all.
When you approach a curve the system may
briefly report vehicles in the next lane due to
the bend of the curve. If the system decelerates
you may compensate it by briefly accelerating.
After releasing the gas pedal the system is reac‐
tivated and controls speed independently.
Malfunction
A Check Control message is displayed if the sys‐
tem fails or was automatically deactivated.
The system may not be fully functional in the
following situations:
▷When an object was not correctly detected.▷In heavy fog, rain, sprayed water or snow‐
fall.▷In tight curves.▷If the camera viewing field or the front
windshield are dirty or covered.▷When driving toward bright lights.▷Up to 20 seconds after the start of the en‐
gine, via the Start/Stop knob.▷During calibration of the camera immedi‐
ately after vehicle shipment.Seite 103Driving comfortCONTROLS103

Cruise controlThe concept
The system is functional at speeds beginning at
approx. 20 mph/30 km/h.
It maintains the speed that was set using the
control elements on the steering wheel.
The system brakes on downhill gradients if en‐
gine braking is insufficient.
Unfavorable conditions
Do not use the system if unfavorable con‐
ditions make it impossible to drive at a constant
speed, e.g.:▷On winding 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. ◀
General information
The system is functional at speeds beginning at
approx. 20 mph/30 km/h.
Depending on the set drive mode, refer to
page 96, the features of the cruise control can
change in certain areas.

Securing
Follow the installation instructions of the roof
rack.
Loading Be sure that adequate clearance is maintained
for tilting and opening the glass sunroof.
Because roof racks raise the vehicle's center of
gravity when loaded, they have a major effect
on vehicle handling and steering response.
Therefore, note the following when loading and
driving:▷Do not exceed the approved roof/axle
loads and the approved gross vehicle
weight.▷Distribute the roof load uniformly.▷The roof load should not extend past the
loading area.▷Always place the heaviest pieces on the
bottom.▷Secure the roof luggage firmly, e.g., tie with
ratchet straps.▷Do not let objects project into the opening
path of the tailgate.▷Drive cautiously and avoid sudden acceler‐
ation and braking maneuvers. Take corners
gently.
Rear luggage rack
General information Installation only possible with rear luggage rack
preparation.
Rear racks are available as special accessories.
Note Follow the installation instructions of the rear
luggage rack.
Drive cautiously and avoid sudden acceleration
and braking maneuvers. Take corners gently.
SecuringCOOPER/COOPER D/ONE/ONE DCOOPER S/COOPER SD
The anchorage points, arrow 1, and the socket,
arrow 2, are located below the covers in the
bumper.
Remove the covers before installing the rear
luggage rack.
Power consumption Function of tail lights
Before driving off, check that the tail
lights of the rear luggage rack are functioning
properly; otherwise, there is a risk of endanger‐
ing other traffic. ◀

more than:
▷Turn signals: 42 watts per side.▷Rear lights: 50 watts per side.▷Brake lights: 84 watts in total.▷Rear fog lights: 42 watts in total.Seite 139LoadingDRIVING TIPS139

Changing wheels
Hints
When using run-flat tires or tire sealants, a tire
does not need to be changed immediately in
the event of pressure loss due to a flat tire.
Which is why no spare tire is available.
The tools for changing wheels are available as
accessories from your service center.
