The automatic distance control (hereinafter referred to as ACC) maintains the
set speed or the distance to the vehicle ahead without the accelerator or
brake pedal being pressed.
The front of the vehicle and the distance to the vehicle ahead is monitored by
a radar sensor » page 135.
The state in which the ACC maintains the speed or the proximity is described
as control from here on.
WARNING■
The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 135, in section Introduction .■
The driver must always be ready to take over steering of the vehicle him-
self (accelerate or brake).
■
The ACC does not react when approaching a stationary obstacle, such as
traffic jams, vehicle breakdowns or vehicles waiting at a traffic light.
■
The ACC does not respond to crossing or oncoming objects.
■
If the ACC does not decelerate fast enough, immediately apply the vehi-
cle's foot brake.
WARNINGFor safety reasons, do not use the ACC under the following conditions.■When driving in turning lanes, motorway exits or construction sites, to
avoid an unwanted acceleration to the stored speed.■
When visibility is poor, (e.g. fog, heavy rain, thick snowfall).
■
When road conditions are poor (e.g. ice, slippery road, gravel, dirt road).
■
When driving around “sharp” bends.
■
When riding on a steep gradient / high slope.
■
When driving through places where metal objects (such as metal build-
ings, railroad tracks, etc.) can be found.
■
When driving through very divided and enclosed spaces (such as large-ca-
pacity garages, car ferries, tunnels and the like.).
Note
■ The ACC is designed primarily for use on motorways.■The ACC reduces the speed by automatically releasing the accelerator or by
means of a braking procedure as appropriate. If the brakes are used for an au-
tomatic speed reduction at any moments, then the brake light illuminates.■
In case of failure of more than one brake light on the vehicle or on the con-
nected trailer, the ACC becomes unavailable.
■
The control automatically cancels the engagement of the brake supportive
assistance systems (e.g. ESC) or when the maximum permitted engine speed is
exceeded.

The ACC allows a speed of 30 - 160 km/h to be set or a distance to the preced- ing vehicle to be very short of very long to be set.
The ACC adjusts the set speed with respect to the detected vehicle ahead,
thus maintaining the selected proximity.
The ACC can detect a vehicle that is up to approx. 120 m ahead using the radar sensor.

Automatic stop-start
Read and observe
on page 150 first.
Vehicles with an automatic transmission can decelerate to a standstill and
start moving again using the ACC.
Decelerate to a standstill
If a vehicle ahead decelerates to a standstill, the ACC will also decelerate your
vehicle to a standstill.
Starting to drive again after a holding period
As soon as the vehicle ahead starts moving again after a holding period, your
vehicle will also move and the speed will continue to be regulated. Control is
automatically disconnected in case of longer holding periods.
Depress the brake pedal.

157The Front Assist (hereinafter referred to as system) warns you of the danger of
a collision with a vehicle or another obstacle in front of the vehicle, and tries to
avoid a collision or mitigate its consequences by automatically applying the
brakes where necessary.
The area in front of the vehicle is monitored by a radar sensor » page 135.WARNING■
The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 135, in section Introduction .■
The system does not respond to crossing or oncoming objects.
CAUTION
In case of failure of more than one brake light on the vehicle or on the electri-
cally connected trailer, the system becomes unavailable.
Operation
Read and observe
and on page 155 first.
The system support is provided in the following manner.▶ Alerts you about a dangerous proximity to the vehicle ahead.
▶ Warns you of an impending collision.
▶ Prepares the brakes for emergency braking prior to a detected danger.
▶ Assists with a brake action triggered by the driver.
▶ If the driver fails to respond to a detected danger, automatic braking is per-
formed.
The system can work only if the following basic conditions are met. The system is activated.
TCS is enabled » page 135, Braking and stabilisation systems .
The vehicle is travelling forwards at a speed of more than approx. 5 km/h.
Note
The system can be impaired or may not be available, for example when driving
in “sharp ”curves or with an ESC engagement » page 136.155Assist systems

Distance warning (dangerous distance)Fig. 174
Symbols in the instrument cluster: Note (dangerous
proximity)
Read and observe and on page 155 first.
If a safe interval to the vehicle ahead falls below a minimum the display of the
instrument cluster shows the symbol 
» Fig. 174 .
Immediately increase the proximity if the current traffic situation allows you to do so!
The proximity at which the warning is displayed depends on the current speed.
The warning may occur when driving between about 60 km/h and 210 km/h.
Warning and automatic braking
Fig. 175
Symbols in the instrument cluster: Warning or emer-
gency braking at low speed
Read and observe and on page 155 first.
Emergency braking at low speed
In a driving speed range of approx. 5 km/h to approx. 30 km/h, the automatic braking action is not preceded by a warning. In the event of an immediate risk
of impact, automatic braking is carried out with the breaking force increasing
in stages.
With automatic braking the symbol appears » Fig. 175 in the display.
Advance warning
If the system detects a risk of collision, the symbol 
» Fig. 175 appears in the
display and you will hear an acoustic signal.
At the same time, the braking system is prepared for possible emergency brak-
ing.
The pre-warning display can occur in the following situations.
▶ If there is a risk of collision with a moving obstacle at a driving speed range
of approx. 30 km/h to approx. 210 km/h.
▶ If there is a risk of collision with a stationary obstacle at a driving speed
range of approx. 30 km/h to approx. 85 km/h.
When the advance warning is issued, the brake pedal must be pressed or the
moving obstacle avoided!
Acute alert
If the driver does not react to the advance warning, the system briefly applies
the brake automatically via an active brake intervention to draw attention to
the potential danger of a collision again.
Automatic Braking
If the driver fails to respond to the acute warning, the system starts to apply
the brakes automatically with increasing stopping power in several stages.
Brake Support
If the driver does not brake sufficiently in the event of an impending collision,
the system automatically increases the braking force.
The brake support only occurs as long as the brake pedal is being firmly press-
ed down.
Note
■ If an automatic brake intervention is triggered by the system, the pressure in
the brake system increases and the brake pedal cannot be operated with the
normal pedal stroke.■
The automatic braking interventions can be cancelled by pressing the accel-
erator pedal or by means of a steering intervention.

When the vehicle approaches a detected line between lanes, the system
makes a light movement of the steering wheel in the opposite direction to the
boundary line. This corrective steering intervention can be manually overrid-
den at any time.WARNING■ The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 135, in section Introduction .■
Lane Assist can help you keep the vehicle within the lane. However, it
does not steer the vehicle for you. The driver retains full responsibility for
steering at all times.
■
Some objects on the road may be incorrectly detected as lines. As a re-
sult, an incorrect steering intervention may take place.
WARNINGThe detection capability of the camera may be limited by various external
influences. In such cases, the assistant may not detect the line between
two lanes at all or not properly. The detection capability of the camera may
be restricted in the following situations, for example.■
When visibility is poor, (e.g. fog, heavy rain, thick snowfall).
■
When driving around “sharp” bends.
■
The camera is blinded by the sun.
■
The camera is blinded by the oncoming traffic.
■
The viewing range of the camera is impeded by a vehicle travelling ahead.
■
The camera viewing range is obstructed by an obstacle.
CAUTION
Do not attach any stickers or similar objects to the windscreen to avoid impair-
ing the functions of the systems.
Note
■ The system is designed for driving on motorways and roads with adequate
longitudinal markings.■
The system can detect both continuous and broken lines.
