depressing the foot brake.
2 Release the foot brake and drive
off without delay.
The vehicle is held for approxi-
mately 2 seconds after the foot
brake has been released.
Depending on the vehicle's load,
the vehicle may roll backwards a lit-
tle.
The system reduce s engine power
output and applies the brakes on
individual wheels thereby helping,
within the limits imposed by the
laws of physics, to keep the vehicle
safely on course.
VSC detects the following unstable
driving conditions, for example:
 Loss of traction at the rear which
can lead to oversteer.
 Loss of grip of the front wheels
which can lead to understeer.Hill-start assist control

WA R N I N G
The system does not relieve you of
your personal responsibility to assess
the traffic situation correctly. Due to system limitations, it cannot respond
independently and appropriately in all
traffic conditions. There is a danger of accidents. Adapt your driving style to
the traffic conditions. Observe the
traffic situation and intervene actively if the situation warrants it.
WA R N I N G
When driving with a roof load, for example with a roof rack, the higher
centre of gravity can mean that driv-
ing safety is no longer guaranteed in critical driving situations. There is a
danger of accidents or damage to
property. Do not deactivate Vehicle
Stability Control VSC when driving with a roof load.

Driving stability during acceleration
and cornering is rest ricted if VSC is

To assist driving stability, re-acti-

VSC OFF is displayed in the instru-

excessively high rate of speed
In this case, even if the VSC operates,
it cannot operate sufficiently to avoid a
possible dangerous situation. The

standing their surroundings and driving
at a safe speed.
Traction mode is a variant of Vehi-
cle Stability Control VSC and is
optimised for forward momentum.
In special road conditions, for
example roads on which snow has
not been cleared or on a loose sur-
face, the system ensures maximum

Activating Traction mode provides
maximum traction. Driving stability
during acceleration and cornering is
limited.
Activating Traction mode briefly
may be useful in the following situa-

 When driving in slush or on
uncleared, snow-covered roads.
 When starting in deep snow or
on a loose surface.
 When driving with snow chains.
When Traction mode is activated,
TRACTION is displayed in the

*: if equipped
The active differential steplessly
locks the rear axle depending on
the driving conditions. This pro-
vides optimal power transfer in all
driving conditions by helping pre-
vent wheel spin at either rear
wheel.
The driver is responsible for a driv-
ing style appropriate to the situa-
tion.
This chapter describes all standard,
country-specific and special equip-
ment available for the model series.
It may therefore describe equip-
ment and functions which are not
installed in your vehicle, for exam-
ple on account of the special equip-
ment selected or the country
specification. This also applies to
safety-relevant functions and sys-
tems. Please comply with the rele-
vant laws and regulations when
using the corresponding functions
and systems.
The system can be used to set a
speed limit so that speed restric-
tions are not exceeded.
The system enables speeds from a
value of 30 km/h/20 mph and above
to be set as a speed limit. Below
the set speed limit, the vehicle can
be driven without restriction.

The current speed is adopted as
the speed limit.
When switching on at a standstill or
driving at low speed, 30 km/h/20
mph is set as the speed limit.
When activating the speed limit it is
possible that Vehicle Stability Con-
trol VSC will be switched on and
the drive mode switched to NOR-
MAL.
The system switches off automati-
cally in the followi ng situations, for
example:
 When switching the engine off.
 When switching on Cruise Con-
trol.
 When activating sport mode
using the sport mode switch.
The displays turn off.
The system is interrupted when
reverse gear is engaged or the
transmission is in neutral.
Press the rocker switch repeatedly
upwards or downwards until the
desired speed limit is set.
 Each time the rocker switch is
pressed to the resistance point,
the speed limit is increased or
decreased by 1 km/h, 1 mph.
 Each time the rocker switch is
pressed beyond the resistance
point, the speed limit changes to
the next multiple of 10 km/h on
the km/h display or the next mul-
tiple of 5 mph on the mph display

If you set a speed limit while driving
which is below the current speed,
the vehicle coasts down to the set
speed limit.
Vehicles with Speed Limit Assist,

active again as soon as the current
speed falls below the set speed
limit.
Depending on the vehicle specifica-

Using the system in the following situ- ations may increase the risk of an
accident, for example:
●On stretches of road with many cor-
ners and bends.
●In heavy traffic.
●If the road is icy, if there is fog or snow, if conditions are wet or on a
loose road surface.
There is a danger of accidents or
damage to property. Only use the sys-
tem if it is possible to drive at a con- stant speed.

The desired speed may be acciden-
tally set incorrectly or called up by
mistake. There is a danger of acci- dents. Adjust the desired speed to the

If the system is active, the dis-
played speed is stored and the
vehicle reaches the stored speed
when the road is clear.
 Each time the rocker switch is
pressed to the resistance point,
the desired speed is increased or
decreased by 1 km/h, 1 mph.
 Each time the rocker switch is
pressed beyond the resistance
point, the desired speed
changes to the next multiple of
10 km/h on the km/h display or
the next multiple of 5 mph on the
mph display in the speedometer.
The maximum speed which can be set
depends on the vehicle.
 Pressing the rocker switch to the
resistance point and holding it
there accelerates or decelerates
the vehicle without pressing the
accelerator pedal.
The speed is maintained after releasing
the rocker switch. Pressing beyond the
resistance point acce lerates the vehicle
more rapidly.
If Cruise Control is interrupted, it
can be resumed by calling up the
saved speed.
Before calling up the saved speed,
make sure that the difference
between the current speed and the
saved speed is not excessively
large. Otherwise, there may be
inadvertent braking or acceleration.
Cruise Control is resumed with the
saved values.
The saved speed value is deleted
and can no longer be called up in
the following instances:
 When the system is switched off.
 When drive-ready state is
switched off.
With the corresponding equipment,

The desired speed is also main-
tained when drivi ng downhill. The
vehicle may drive slower than the
desired speed on uphill gradients if
there is not enough engine power.
*: if equipped
This system allows you to set a
desired speed and a desired dis-
tance from the vehicle in front,
using the buttons on the steering
wheel.
When the road ahead is clear, the
system maintains the desired
speed by braking or accelerating
the vehicle automatically, as
required.
If there is a vehicle driving in front,
the system adapts your own vehicle
speed in order to maintain the set
distance from the vehicle ahead.
The speed is adapted as far as the
given situation allows.
Depending on the vehicle settings,
the characteristics of the Cruise
Control may change.
The distance can be set in several
stages, and is dependent on the
individual speed for reasons of
safety.
If the vehicle ahead brakes to a
standstill and sets off again shortly
afterwards, the system can recog-
nise this within the bounds of what
is possible in the given conditions.
The symbol is displayed
when the set desired speed
has been reached.

An unsecured vehicle can start mov-

vehicle, secure it to prevent it from
rolling away.
Observe the following to ensure that
the vehicle is secured against rolling away:
●Apply the parking brake.
●Turn the front wheels towards the
kerb on upward or downward gradi- ents.
●Additionally secure the vehicle on upward or downward gradients, for
example with a chock.
