Note to reduce speed
If the delay of the ACC is insufficient in relation to the vehicle in front, in the instrument cluster, the warning light lights up and the display shows the
following message.Apply the brake!
Regulation according to the vehicle in the adjacent lane
During regulation your vehicle may be regulated according to the vehicle in the adjacent lane.
This could occur at speeds above about 80 km / h when your vehicle is moving
faster than the vehicle in the adjacent lane on the driver's side. The display
shows the detected vehicle is in the adjacent lane.
Note
Some ACC notifications in the display of the instrument cluster may be hidden
by notifications for other functions. An ACC notification automatically appears
for a brief moment when there is a change in status of the ACC.
Automatic stop-start
Read and observe
on page 163 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.
34Starting 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.
If the preceding vehicle starts moving again after a long break, then to contin-
ue the regulation press the accelerator pedal or lever to position

selected than on dry roads.
Special driving conditionsFig. 205
Special conditions: Cornering / narrow vehicles or vehicles trav-
elling side by side
Fig. 206
Special conditions: Lane changes of other vehicles / stationary
vehicles
Read and observe
on page 163 first.
The following and similar situations require special attention of the driver.
When cornering
When driving around long bends the ACC may respond to a vehicle in the adja-
cent lane » Fig. 205 -
. Your own vehicle is regulated with respect to this ve-
hicle and will no longer respond to the vehicle ahead.
In such cases, control should be disabled by accelerating, applying the brake or
pressing the button on the operating lever
» Fig. 204 on page 165 .
167Assist systems
Page 170 of 276
Narrow vehicles or vehicles travelling side by side
Narrow vehicles or vehicles travelling side by side are not detected by the ra-
dar sensor until they are within the sensor's range » Fig. 205 -
.
If necessary, slow down the car by applying the brake.
Other vehicles changing lanes
Vehicles that change onto the lane with a small proximity » Fig. 206 -
do not
have to be detected by the radar sensor in time. The result may be a delayed
ACC response.
If necessary, slow down the car by applying the brake.
Stationary vehicles
The ACC does not detect stationary objects! When a vehicle detected by the
ACC turns or sheers off and there is a stationary vehicle in front of this vehicle,
» Fig. 206 -
the ACC does not respond to the stationary vehicle.
In such cases, take over the steering and stop the vehicle by applying the foot
brake.
When overtaking
When your vehicle is being controlled (the speed is lower than that which is
stored) and the indicator is activated, the ACC interprets this situation as
meaning that the driver intends to overtake. The ACC automatically acceler-
ates the vehicle, thereby reducing the proximity to a vehicle ahead.
If the vehicle changes to the fast lane and no vehicle is detected ahead, the
ACC accelerates until the set speed is reached and then keeps it constant.
Acceleration can be cancelled at any time by touch on the brake pedal or
pressing the button on the lever
» Fig. 204 on page 165 .
Vehicles with special load or special body parts
Other vehicles with a load or with body parts protruding from the sides, back
or top of the vehicle contour may not be detected by the ACC.
Control should therefore be disabled whenever you are driving behind or over-
taking such a vehicle.
Towing a trailer
When towing, or in when another accessory is connected to the trailer socket
the ACC control is set with a lower rate. The manner of driving should there-
fore be adapted to this limitation.Information messages

The Front Assist (hereinafter referred to as the system) warns you of the dan-
ger 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 143.WARNING■
Please take note of the general points relating to the use of assistance
systems » page 142, 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 169 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, an automatic braking ac-
tion is performed.
The system can work only if the following basic conditions are met. The system is activated.
The TCS is activated » page 143, Braking and stabilisation systems .
The vehicle is moving 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 144.Distance warning (dangerous distance)Fig. 207
Symbols in the instrument cluster: Note (dangerous
proximity)
Read and observe and on page 169 first.
The display of the distance warning is for vehicles with MAXI DOT display.
If a safe interval to the vehicle ahead falls below a minimum the display of the
instrument cluster shows the symbol
» Fig. 207 .
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. 208
Symbols in the instrument cluster: Warning or emer-
gency braking at low speed
Read and observe and on page 169 first.
Emergency braking at low speed
In a driving speed range of about 5 km/h to about 30 km/h the automatic brak- ing action is not preceded by a warning. With an immediate impact hazard au-
tomatic braking is done with the breaking force increasing in stages.
169Assist systems
Page 172 of 276
With automatic braking the symbol appears » Fig. 208 in the display.
Advance warning
If the system detects a risk of collision, the symbol
» Fig. 208 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 in a driving speed range of
about 30 km/h to about 210 km/h.
▶ There is a risk of a collision with a stationary moving obstacle in a vehicle
speed range of approximately 30 km/h to about 85 km/h.
With a warning the brake pedal must be pressed or the moving obstacle is to
be 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 assist
If the driver brakes inadequate with an impending collision, the system auto-
matically increases braking force.
The braking assistance only occurs as long as the brake pedal is being firmly
pressed 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 steering intervention.

173Assist systems
Page 177 of 276
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■ Please take note of the general points relating to the use of assistance
systems » page 142, 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.

The boundary lines are clearly visible (appropriate longitudinal markings).
The boundary line of at least one side of the lane is detected.
The driver's hands are on the steering wheel.
The lane is more than 2.5 m in width.
If the turn signal is switched on prior to driving over the boundary line (e.g.
when making a turn), no steering intervention takes place when the vehicle
approaches the boundary line. The system regards the situation as an inten-
ded lane change.
Warning lights in the instrument clusterWarning lightMeaningThe system is active, but not ready to intervene.The system is active and ready to intervene or is currently

Adaptive lane assist
Adaptive lane assist helps to keep the vehicle in the position between the
boundary lines selected by the driver, by means of steering intervention.
If the system detects only one boundary line, it will help to maintain the selec-
ted proximity from said boundary line.
If the proximity to the detected boundary line is changed, the system quickly
adapts and maintains the newly-selected position.
WARNINGThe system function may be restricted if, for example there is danger due
to ruts on a downhill road or in a crosswind.Activation / deactivation

is being overtaken by the vehicle
A
.
▶ Your vehicle » Fig. 216
C
is overtaking the vehicle
D
with a speed that is at
least 10 km / h more. If the speed during the overtaking is even higher, then there is no warning by the warning light.
The warning display is always in the exterior mirror on the side of the vehicle
where a vehicle is detected in the “blind spot”.
The time at which the warning light indicates a vehicle in the “blind spot” » Fig. 215 is dependent on the speed difference between the two vehicles. The
larger the speed difference, the earlier the warning is given by means of the
indicator light.
Two warning levels
The warning light is
illuminated .
▶ A vehicle was detected in the “blind spot”.
The warning light is
flashing .
▶ A vehicle was detected in the “blind spot” and the flashing light is on.
An advanced warning for vehicles with Lane Assist
The warning light flashes
even if the steering wheel is “turned” in direction
of the vehicle in the blind spot. Therefore the Lane Assist » page 174 must be
enabled and the boundary line between the vehicles detected.
If in this case your vehicle indicates crossing the boundary line, with a short vi-
bration of the steering wheel.
Note
The brightness of the indicator light is dependent on the setting of the ve-
hicle lighting. With the low or high beam on the brightness of the light will be
lower.
