Driving and operating179Deactivation of the functionality
Press Ñ, the adaptive cruise control
is in pause mode and a message is
displayed. The vehicle is driven
without adaptive cruise control.
The adaptive cruise control is
deactivated, but not disabled. The
last stored set speed remains in
memory for later usage.
The adaptive cruise control is
deactivated automatically when:
● The brake pedal is depressed.
● The vehicle accelerates above 180 km/h or slows down below
30 km/h.
● The electric parking brake is applied.
● The Traction Control system or Electronic Stability Control is
deactivated or operating.
● The selector lever of automatic transmissions is neither in D nor

in the Driver Information Centre.
Pressing ß to activate the speed
limiter deactivates adaptive cruise
control.
Switching off the ignition deletes the
stored set speed.
Driver's attention ● Use the adaptive cruise control carefully on bends or mountainroads, as it can lose the vehicle
ahead and needs time to detect it
again.● Do not use the system on slippery roads as it can create
rapid changes in tyre traction
(wheel spinning), so that you
could lose control of the vehicle.
● Do not use the system when the spare wheel is in use.
System limits9 Warning
The system's automatic brake
force does not permit hard braking and the braking level may not be
sufficient to avoid a collision.
● After a sudden lane change, the system needs a certain time to
detect the next preceding
vehicle. So if a new vehicle is
detected, the system may
accelerate instead of braking.
● The adaptive cruise control does ignore the oncoming traffic.
● The adaptive cruise control does not consider pedestrians and
animals for braking and driving
off.

Driving and operating183In the following cases, forward
collision alert may not detect a vehicle
ahead or sensor performance is
limited:
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● driving during nighttime
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● the sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt etc.
● the windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers
Active emergency braking
Active emergency braking can help to reduce the damage and injury from
crashes with vehicles, pedestrians and obstacles directly ahead, when a
collision can no longer be avoided
either by manual braking or by
steering. Before the active
emergency braking applies, the driver is warned by the forward collision
alert or the front pedestrian protection
alert.Forward collision alert 3 181
Front pedestrian protection 3 185
The feature uses various inputs (e.g.
camera sensor, brake pressure,
vehicle speed) to calculate the
probability of a frontal collision.9 Warning
This system is not intended to
replace the driver responsibility for driving the vehicle and looking
ahead. Its function is limited to
supplemental use only to reduce
the vehicle speed before a
collision.
The system may not react to
animals. After a sudden lane
change, the system needs a
certain time to detect the next
preceding vehicle.
The driver must always be ready
to take action and apply the brakes and steer to avoid collisions.
Functionality
Active emergency braking is
equipped with a front camera and
operates in forward gear above
walking speed up to 85 km/h. The
system detects stationary vehicles
only if the speed does not exceed
80 km/h.
A precondition is that active
emergency braking is not deactivated
in the vehicle personalisation menu
3 118.
If deactivated, m illuminates in the
instrument cluster and a warning
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre
If the system has been deactivated
manually, it is reactivated
automatically the next time the
ignition is switched on.
The system includes: ● emergency automatic braking● forward collision alert
● front pedestrian protection

204Driving and operatingSwitch off the system if the system is
disturbed by tar marks, shadows,
road cracks, temporary or
construction lane markings, or other
road imperfections.9 Warning
Always keep your attention on the
road and maintain proper vehicle
position within the lane, otherwise
vehicle damage, injury or death
could occur.
Lane keep assist does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
The system may not keep the
vehicle in the lane or give an alert,
even if a lane marking is detected.
The steering of the lane keep
assist may not be sufficient to
avoid a lane departure.
The system may not detect hands-
off driving due to external
influences like road condition and
surface and weather. The driver has full responsibility to control the
vehicle and is always required to
keep the hands on the steering
wheel while driving.
Using the system while towing a
trailer or on slippery roads could
cause loss of control of the vehicle
and a crash. Switch the system off.
Driver alert
The driver alert system monitores the driving time and the vigilance of the
driver. Monitoring the vigilance of the
driver is based on the trajectory
variations of the vehicle compared to
the lane markings.
The system includes a driving time
alert combined with driver drowsiness detection.
9 Warning
The system cannot replace the
need for vigilance on the part of
the driver. Taking a break is
recommended as soon as feeling tired or at least every two hours.
Do not take the steering wheel
when feeling tired.
Activation or Deactivation
The system can be activated or
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation 3 118.
The state of the system stays in
memory when the ignition is switched
off.
Driving time alert The driver gets notified by a pop-up
reminder symbol € in the Driver
Information Centre simultaneously with an acoustic alert if the driver has
not taken a break after 2 hours of
driving at a speed above 65 km/h. The
alert is repeated hourly until the
vehicle is stopped, no matter how
vehicle speed evolves.
Page 207 of 285

Driving and operating205The counting of driving time alert is
reset if one of the following conditions
is met:
● The vehicle has been stationary for more than 15 minutes with theengine running.
● The ignition has been switched off for a few minutes.
● The driver's seat belt has been unfastened and the driver's door
is open.
Note
If the vehicle speed drops below
65 km/h, the system is paused. The driving time is counted again once
the speed is above 65 km/h.
Driver drowsiness detection
The system monitors the driver's level
of vigilance. A camera at the top of the windscreen detects variations in
trajectory compared to the lane
markings. This system is particularly
suited to fast roads (speed higher
than 65 km/h).
If the trajectory of the vehicle
suggests a certain level of
drowsiness or inattention by thedriver, the system triggers the first
level of alert. The driver is notified by
a message and an audible signal is
given.
After three first level alerts, the
system triggers a new alert with a
message, accompanied by a more
pronounced audible signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor
road surface or strong winds), the
system may give alerts independent of the driver's level of vigilance.
The driver drowsiness detection is reinitialised when the ignition has
been switched off for a few minutes or the speed remains below 65 km/h for
a few minutes.
System limitationsIn the following situations, the system
may not operate properly or even not
operate at all:
● poor visibility caused by inadequate lighting of the
roadway, falling snow, heavy
rain, dense fog etc.● dazzle caused by headlamps of oncoming vehicles, low sun,
reflections on damp roads,
leaving a tunnel, alternating
shade and light etc.
● windscreen area in front of the camera covered by dirt, snow,
stickers etc.
● no lane markings detected or multiple lane markings due to
roadworks
● close vehicles ahead
● winding roads or narrow roads
