124Driving and operating
It uses radar and camera sensors to
detect the vehicles ahead. If no
vehicle is detected in the driving path, the adaptive cruise control will
behave like a conventional cruise
control.
The adaptive cruise control
automatically decelerates the vehicle
when approaching a slower moving
vehicle. It then adjusts the vehicle
speed to follow the vehicle ahead at
the selected following distance. The
vehicle speed increases or decreases
to follow the vehicle ahead, but will
not exceed the set speed. It may
apply limited braking with activated
brake lights.
If the vehicle ahead accelerates or
changes lane, the adaptive cruise
control progressively accelerates the
vehicle to return to the stored set
speed. If the driver operates the turn
lights to overtake a slower vehicle, the
adaptive cruise control allows the
vehicle to temporarily approach the
vehicle ahead to help passing it.
However, the set speed will never be
exceeded.
The adaptive cruise control can store
set speeds over 19 mph for manual
transmission. If the vehicle ahead is
moving too slowly and the selected
following distance cannot be
maintained anymore, a warning
chime is given and a message is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre. The message prompts the
driver to take back control of the
vehicle. On vehicles with automatic
transmission, the system can brake
the vehicle until a full stop.9 Warning
The complete driver attention is
always required while driving with adaptive cruise control. The driver stays fully in control of the vehicle
because the brake pedal, the
accelerator pedal and the button
Ñ have priority over any adaptive
cruise control operation.
Switching on the system
Press w.
w is indicated in the Driver
Information Centre. The system is still not active.

Driving and operating125
Activation of the functionalitySetting speed by the driver
The adaptive cruise control has to be
switched on manually at a speed
between 19 mph and 112 mph. For
vehicles with automatic transmission, the automatic selector lever must be
in position D or M.
Accelerate to the desired speed and
move the thumb wheel to SET/-. The
current speed is stored and
maintained.The speed value is indicated in the
Driver Information Centre.
The preset speed can then be
changed by moving thumb wheel to
RES/+ to increase or SET/- to
decrease the speed. Move thumb
wheel repeatedly to change speed in
small steps, move and hold to change speed in large steps.
When the adaptive cruise control is
operating, the stop-start system is
automatically deactivated.
Adopting speed by the speed limit
recognition
The intelligent speed adaptation
informs the driver when a speed limit
is detected by the speed limit
recognition. The detected speed limit
can be taken over as new set speed
for the adaptive cruise control.
Using the camera at the top of the
windscreen, this system detects and
reads speed limit and end of speed
limit signs.
If the adaptive cruise control is active, the recognised speed limit will be
displayed in the Driver Information Centre and MEM illuminates if the
difference between set speed and
speed limit is more than 6 mph.
Press MEM on the steering wheel to
request saving of the suggested
speed.
Press MEM on the steering wheel
once more to confirm and save the
new speed setting.
This speed limit is now the new set
speed of the adaptive cruise control.

126Driving and operatingThe function can be activated or
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation 3 76.
Overriding set speed It is always possible to drive faster
than the selected set speed by
depressing the accelerator pedal.
When the accelerator pedal is
released, the vehicle returns to the
stored speed. If a slower moving
vehicle is ahead, the following
distance selected by the driver is
restored.
If the set speed is exceeded, the
indicated speed setting disappears
and a warning message is displayed.9 Warning
Accelerating by the driver
deactivates automatic braking by
the system. This is indicated as a
pop-up warning in the Driver
Information Centre.
Resuming stored speed
Move the thumb wheel to RES/+ at a
speed above 19 mph. The adaptive
cruise control is activated with the
stored set speed.
Adaptive cruise control on
vehicles with automatic
transmission
For vehicles with automatic
transmission, adaptive cruise control
allows to maintain the selected
distance behind a braking vehicle
until a complete stop is reached.
If the system has stopped your
vehicle behind another vehicle, then
the set speed is replaced by a green
control indicator .. This symbol
notifies, that the vehicle is hold
automatically in stop position.
When the vehicle ahead drives away
within some seconds and the traffic
conditions allow a restart of the
vehicle, then active cruise control is
resumed automatically.
If the stopped vehicle ahead was
stopped for a longer time and then
begins to move forward, the greencontrol indicator . will flash and a
warning chime will sound as a
reminder to check traffic before
resuming.
When the vehicle ahead drives away,
depress the accelerator pedal or
press i to resume adaptive cruise
control.
If the vehicle stays stopped for more
than 5 minutes or if the driver's door
is opened and the driver's seat belt is unfastened, then the electric parking
brake is applied automatically to hold the vehicle. Control indicator j will
illuminate. To release electric parking
brake, press the accelerator pedal.
Electric parking brake 3 114.9 Warning
When the system is deactivated or
cancelled, the vehicle will no
longer be held at a stop and can

to manually apply the brake to hold the vehicle stationary.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is
being held at a stop by adaptive
cruise control. Always move
selector lever to park position P
and switch off the ignition before
leaving the vehicle.
Setting the following distance
When adaptive cruise control detects
a slower moving vehicle in the driving path, it will adjust the vehicle speed tomaintain the following distance
selected by the driver.
The following distance can be set to
close (1 bar), normal (2 bars) or far (3
bars).
If the engine is running and the
adaptive cruise control is enabled
(grey) or avtive (green), you can
modify the following distance setting:
Press V, the current setting is
shown in the Driver Information
Centre.
Press V again to change the
following distance: The new setting is displayed in the Driver Information

As a safety measure, do not use the
system if the brake lights are faulty.
Do not use the system if the front
bumper is damaged.
Active emergency braking
Active emergency braking can help to reduce the damage and injury from
crashes with vehicles and
pedestrians directly ahead, when the driver does not actively take action
either by manual braking or by
steering. Before the active
emergency braking applies, the driver
is warned by the forward collision
alert.
Forward collision alert 3 134
Front pedestrian protection 3 136Active emergency braking can be
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation 3 76. If deactivated,
m illuminates in the instrument
cluster and a warning message is
displayed in the Driver Information Centre. When ignition is switched onnext time, system is activated.
The feature uses various inputs (e.g.
camera sensor, radar 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.9 Warning
The usage of a license plate
support may have an impact on
the proper operation of the radar
unit and may limit sensor
perfomance. Vehicles or
pedestrians driving or walking
ahead may not be detected by the
system.
Do not use a a license plate
support to ensure proper system
functionality.
Functionality
Depending on the vehicle
configuration and the detected
objects, there are several operational speed ranges.
On vehicles equipped only with front
camera, the active emergency
braking operates from 3 mph to 50 mph when a vehicle has been
detected.
