Speed limiter
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Operating the speed limiter with the turn signal and main beam lever
⇒ Operating the speed limiter via the multifunction steering wheel
⇒ Troubleshooting
The speed limiter helps to prevent the
vehicle from exceeding a speed that
you have stored.
Speed range
The speed limiter is available when driving forwards at speeds from around 30 km/h (20 mphyf .
Driving with speed limiter
You can interrupt the speed limiter function at any time by fully depressing the accelerator beyond
the point of resistance. The green warning and indicator lamp flashes as soon as the stored
speed is exceeded. The speed remains stored in the memory.
The speed limiter function is activated again automatically as soon as the speed drops below the
stored speed.
Driving downhill
Driving downhill may cause the set speed to be exceeded. The green warning and indicator lamp
flashes in this case. An acoustic warning may also be given.
Apply the foot brake to slow the vehicle down, and change down a gear as required.
How do I operate the speed limiter?
Depending on the vehicle equipment, you can operate the speed limiter either by means of the turn
signal and main beam lever ⇒ Operating the speed limiter with the turn signal and main beam lever
or via the multifunction steering wheel ⇒ Operating the speed limiter via the multifunction steering
wheel.
The displays on the instrument cluster are identical in both cases ⇒ Fig. 140.
Operating the speed limiter with the turn signal and main beam
lever
®
Always switch off the speed limiter after use to avoid unintentional speed regulation.
•The speed limiter does not relieve the driver of their responsibility for the speed of the
vehicle. Do not drive at full throttle if it is not required.
•Use of the speed limiter in adverse weather conditions is dangerous and can cause
serious injury, e.g. through aquaplaning, snow, ice, or leaves. Only use the speed
limiter when the road and weather conditions allow it to be used safely.
•The speed limiter cannot limit the vehicle speed when travelling downhill. The vehicle
speed can increase under its own weight. Shift down a gear or brake the vehicle using
the foot brake.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACCyf
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Special driving situations
⇒ System limits
⇒ Switching ACC on and off
⇒ Setting ACC
⇒ Troubleshooting
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACCyf
maintains a constant speed that you
have set. When your vehicle
approaches a vehicle that is driving in
front, ACC automatically adapts the
speed to maintain the distance that you
have set.
Driving with ACC
You can override control by ACC at any time. Control will be interrupted if you brake. If you
accelerate, control will be interrupted while you are accelerating and then resumed.
Control by ACC is less dynamic when towing a trailer ⇒. ACC will not perform control if the brake
lights of the trailer are defective.
Brake request
If automatic deceleration by ACC is not sufficient, ACC will request you to brake additionally by a
corresponding message on the instrument cluster. The red warning lamp lights up. An
acoustic warning is also given. Brake immediately.
Page 174 of 341
Speed range
ACC controls the vehicle in the speed range between 30 km/h (20 mphyf D Q G N P K P S K \f
or 210 km/h (130 mphyf 7 K L V V S H H G U D Q J H P D \ G L I I H U L Q F H U W D L Q P D U N H W V .
Radar sensor
ACC detects driving situations by means of the radar sensor at the front of the vehicle ⇒ Front
view. The range of the radar sensor is up to approximately 120 m.
Does the vehicle have ACC?
The vehicle is equipped with ACC if you can make settings for ACC in the vehicle settings of the
Infotainment system ⇒ Vehicle settings menu.
If the vehicle has ACC, the cruise control system is not available as an independent system.
Special driving situations

reduce the distance from the vehicle in front. Your set speed will not be exceeded.
If ACC does not detect any vehicle in front after you have changed lane, ACC will accelerate the
vehicle up to the set speed.
Stop-and-go traffic
ACC can brake vehicles with DSG dual clutch gearbox to a standstill and hold them stationary.
ACC remains active and the instrument cluster display shows ACC ready for a few seconds.
During this time the vehicle will move off again automatically as soon as the vehicle in front moves
off (depending on the vehicle equipment level and not available in all countriesyf .
•Press the button.
•Press the button or briefly press the accelerator.

•Adapt your speed and distance from the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road
and traffic conditions.
•Do not use the ACC in poor visibility, on steep or winding roads, on slippery road
surfaces, e.g. on snow, ice, wet roads, loose chippings, or on flooded roads.
•Never use ACC off-road or on non-surfaced roads. The ACC is designed for use on
surfaced roads only.
•ACC does not respond to stationary vehicles.
•The ACC does not react to persons, animals or vehicles crossing or approaching in the
same lane.
•Brake immediately if speed reduction by ACC is not sufficient.
•Brake immediately if a request to brake appears on the instrument cluster display.
•Brake if the vehicle starts rolling unintentionally after a request to brake.
•Be prepared to control the speed yourself at all times.

Objects that cannot be detected
•Persons
•Animals
•Stationary vehicles
•Crossing or oncoming vehicles
•Other stationary obstacles
If the message ACC ready is shown on the instrument cluster display and the vehicle in
front moves off, your vehicle will move off automatically. In some cases, the radar sensor
may be unable to detect obstacles that are located in the vehicle's path. This can result in
serious injury and accidents.
•Always check the road ahead before moving off and brake the vehicle if necessary.
WARNING
Page 176 of 341
If a stationary vehicle is hidden behind a vehicle that has been detected by the adaptive cruise
control and this vehicle turns off the road or changes lane, the ACC will not react to the stationary
vehicle ⇒ Fig. 144.
Bends
The radar sensor always measures straight ahead. For this reason, vehicles may be incorrectly
detected or vehicles driving ahead not detected in tight bends ⇒ Fig. 143.
Vehicles outside the sensor range
•Vehicles that are driving outside the sensor range in close proximity to your vehicle, e.g.
motorbikes ⇒ Fig. 143.

Troubleshooting
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
If you do not maintain the minimum distance to a vehicle in front and the difference in
speed between the vehicle in front and your own vehicle is so great that the braking action
of the ACC is insufficient, you are in danger of colliding with the vehicle in front. The
braking distance is also longer in rain and winter road conditions.
•The Adaptive Cruise Control may not be able to detect all driving situations correctly.
•Always be prepared to brake the vehicle yourself.
•Speed and distance control are overridden when you press the accelerator. ACC does
not brake automatically in this case.
•Observe any country-specific regulations relating to the minimum distance.
•Always set a larger distance in wet or snowy conditions or when visibility is poor.

The area monitoring system (Front
Assistyf Z L W K & L W \ ( P H U J H Q F \ % U D N L Q J
System can help to avoid accidents.
Within the limits of the system, Front Assist can warn the driver about imminent collisions, prepare
the vehicle for emergency braking, assist with braking, and initiate automatic braking. The warning
time varies depending on the traffic situation and driver behaviour.
Front Assist is not a substitute for the full concentration of the driver.
Driving with Front Assist
You can cancel the automatic braking interventions of Front Assist by steering or pressing the
accelerator.
Automatic braking
Front Assist can decelerate the vehicle to a standstill. The vehicle will then not be held
permanently. Depress the brake pedal.
The brake pedal will feel harder during an automatic braking operation.
Radar sensor
Front Assist detects driving situations by means of the radar sensor at the front of the vehicle
⇒ Front view. The range of the radar sensor is up to approximately 120 m.
Page 179 of 341
Functions included in the system
The City Emergency Braking System and Pedestrian Monitoring (depending on vehicle equipmentyf
are part of Front Assist and are automatically active when Front Assist is switched on.
Warning levels and braking intervention
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Distance warning
The system detects when safety is endangered by driving too close to the vehicle in front. The
warning lamp Lit up Increase the distance.
Speed range: around 65 km/h (40 mphyf W R N P K P S K \f.
Advance warning
The system detects a possible collision with a vehicle in front or a pedestrian crossing in front of the
vehicle and prepares the vehicle for possible emergency braking.
A warning tone sounds and the warning lamp Lit up Brake or take evasive action.
Speed range: around 30 km/h (20 mphyf W R N P K P S K \f.
Urgent warning
If the driver does not react to the advance warning, the system may initiate a short braking jolt in
order to draw attention to the increasing collision risk. Brake or take evasive action.
Speed range: around 30 km/h (20 mphyf W R N P K P S K \f.
Automatic braking
If the driver also does not react to the urgent warning, the vehicle can be braked automatically with
braking force that increases in several stages. The reduced speed means that it is possible to
minimise the consequences of an accident.
Speed range: around 5 km/h (3 mphyf W R N P K P S K \f.
Braking intervention
If the system detects that the driver is braking insufficiently when there is a risk of collision, the
system can increase the braking force and help prevent a collision. The braking intervention takes
place only for as long as the brake pedal is pressed hard.
Speed range: around 5 km/h (3 mphyf W R N P K P S K \f.
The intelligent technology of Front Assist cannot overcome the laws of physics, and
functions only within the limits of the system. Never let the extra convenience afforded by
Front Assist tempt you into taking risks when driving. The driver is always responsible for
braking in time.
•If Front Assist issues a warning, brake your vehicle immediately depending on the
traffic situation or avoid the obstacle.
•Adapt your speed and distance from the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road
and traffic conditions.
•Front Assist cannot prevent accidents and serious injuries on its own.
•Front Assist can issue unnecessary warnings and carry out unwanted braking
interventions in certain complex driving situations, e.g. at traffic islands.
•Front Assist can issue unnecessary warnings and carry out unwanted braking
interventions when its function is impaired, e.g. if the radar sensor is dirty or its
position has been changed.
•Front Assist without Pedestrian Monitoring does not react to persons. In addition, the
system does not react to animals or crossing vehicles or to vehicles that are
approaching in the same lane.
•If you are unsure whether the vehicle possesses Pedestrian Monitoring, please enquire
about this at a qualified workshop before starting your journey.
•Be prepared to take over control of the vehicle yourself at all times.
