Driving and operating169Drive systems
All-wheel drive
The All-wheel drive system enhances
driving characteristics and stability,
and helps to achieve the best
possible driveability regardless of
ground surface. The system is always
active and cannot be deactivated.
The torque is distributed steplessly
between the wheels of the front and rear axle up to a torque split of 50%to 50%. Depending on the driving
conditions, i.e. steady state driving,
All wheel drive system transfers a
minimum amount of torque for fuel
efficiency. Additionally the torque
vectoring between the rear wheels is
distributed depending on the vehicle
dynamic and surface.
This is possible because the All wheel drive system operates with two
clutches, one on each side.
For optimum system performance,
the vehicle's tyres should not have
varying degrees of wear.If a service message is displayed in
the Driver Information Centre, the
system may have limited functionality
(or be completely disabled in some
cases, i.e. the vehicle switches to
Front-wheel drive). Seek the
assistance of a workshop.
Towing the vehicle 3 270.Brakes
The brake system comprises two independent brake circuits.
If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle can
still be braked using the other brake
circuit. However, braking effect is
achieved only when the brake pedal
is depressed firmly. Considerably
more force is needed for this. The
braking distance is extended. Seek the assistance of a workshop before
continuing the journey.
When the engine is not running, the
support of the brake servo unit
disappears once the brake pedal has
been depressed once or twice.
Braking effect is not reduced, but
braking requires significantly greater
force. It is especially important to bear this in mind when being towed.

Active emergency braking 3 193.
Antilock brake system Antilock brake system (ABS)
prevents the wheels from locking.

172Driving and operatingFault
Failure mode of electric parking brake
is indicated by a control indicator j
and by a vehicle message which is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Vehicle messages 3 121.
Control indicator m flashes: electric
parking brake is not fully applied or
released. When continuously

brake and retry applying.
Brake assist If brake pedal is depressed quickly
and forcefully, maximum brake force
is automatically applied.
Operation of brake assist might
become apparent by a pulse in the
brake pedal and a greater resistance
when depressing the brake pedal.
Maintain steady pressure on the
brake pedal as long as full braking is
required. Maximum brake force is
automatically reduced when brake
pedal is released.Hill start assist
The system helps preventing
unintended movement when driving
away on inclines.
When releasing the brake pedal after
stopping on an incline, brakes remain on for further 2 seconds. The brakes
release automatically as soon as the
vehicle begins to accelerate. The hill
start assist will not activate if one of
the following conditions occurs:
● forward gear is engaged when facing downhill
● reverse gear is engaged when facing uphill
● driver seat belt is unfastened
● driver's door is open
Extended hill start assist
This function holds the vehicle
stationary for up to 5 minutes after the
brake pedal is released.
The electric parking brake will be
automatically activated to prevent
vehicle movement when one of the
following conditions occurs:● extended hill start assist is deactivated after 5 minutes
● ignition is switched off
● driver's exit is detected
Hill start assist or extended hill start
assist can be selected in the vehicle
personalisation 3 122.
Notice
Automatic transmission only: hill
start assist and extended hill start
assist will not be activated in neutral gear. If neutral gear is selected
during an active hold, assists will
deactivate and vehicle may start
moving.

Adaptive cruise control
Adaptive cruise control is an
enhancement to conventional cruise
control with the additional feature of maintaining a certain distance behind the vehicle ahead.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 in front, but will
not exceed the set speed. It may
apply limited braking with activated
brake lights.
To facilitate overtaking a vehicle on
the motorway, the activation of the
turn lights reduces the following
distance for a short time. This function is implemented only on the respective
driver's side depending on left or right
hand drive vehicle configuration.
The adaptive cruise control can store
set speed over 19 mph. On vehicles
with automatic transmissions the
system can brake until a full stop and drive off from a stop.

Driving and operating183Full speed range adaptive cruise
control on vehicles with automatic transmission
Full speed range adaptive cruisecontrol will maintain a following
distance behind a detected vehicle
and slow your vehicle to a stop behind
that vehicle.
When the vehicle ahead accelerates
after a brief stop, the adaptive cruise
control will drive off automatically
without driver action. If necessary,
press RES/+ or the accelerator pedal
to resume adaptive cruise control.
Pressing the accelerator pedal allows more control over the acceleration
after driving off. Note that automatic
braking is disabled during usage of
the accelerator pedal.
If the stopped vehicle ahead was
stopped for a longer time and then
begins to move forward, the green
illuminated vehicle ahead control
indicator A will flash and a warning
chime will sound as a reminder to
check traffic before proceeding.9 Warning
When full speed range adaptive
cruise control is deactivated or
cancelled, the vehicle will no
longer be held at a stop and can
start moving. Always be prepared
to manually apply the brake pedal
to hold the vehicle stationary.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being held at a stop by the full
speed range 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 drivingpath, it will adjust the vehicle speed to
maintain the following distance
selected by the driver.
The following distance can be set to
near, medium or far.
Press K, the current setting is shown
in the Driver Information Centre.
Press K again to change the
following distance. The setting is also
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.

transmission slows down to a
stop without deactivating within
5 minutes.
● The Traction Control system is deactivated or operating.
● The Electronic Stability Control is
deactivated or operating.
● There is no traffic and nothing detected on the road sides forapprox. 1 minute. In this case
there are no radar echoes and
the sensor may report that it is blocked.
● The active emergency braking system is applying the brakes.
● Driving on steep inclines.
● The radar sensor is blocked by an ice or water film.
● A fault is detected in the radar, camera, engine or brake system.
● The brakes need to cool down.

186Driving and operatingAdditionally, the system is
automatically deactivated on vehicles
with automatic transmission (full
speed range adaptive cruise control)
when:
● The incline uphill or downhill is greater than 20%.
● The electric parking brake is applied.
● The vehicle is being held to a stop
by the system for more than
5 minutes.
● The vehicle stops, the driver's seat belt is unbuckled and thedriver's door is opened.
When adaptive cruise control is
deactivated, the control indicator C
changes from green to white and a
pop-up message is displayed in the
Driver Information Centre.
The stored speed is maintained.The stored speed is indicated in
brackets in the Driver Information
Centre when the system is
deactivated but not switched off.
The adaptive cruise control symbol

switched off.9 Warning
When adaptive cruise control is
deactivated, the driver must take
over full brake and engine control
immediately.
Switching off the system
Press v to switch off adaptive cruise
control. The control indicator C
extinguishes in the Driver Information Centre. The stored speed is deleted.
Switching off the ignition also
switches off adaptive cruise control
and deletes the stored speed.
Driver's attention
● Use adaptive cruise control carefully on bends or mountain
roads, 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 adaptive cruise control during rain, snow or
heavy dirt, as the radar sensor
can be covered by a water film,
dust, ice or snow. This reduces or suppresses completely the
visibility. In case of sensor
blockage, clean the sensor
cover.
