The distance level can also be set using the Q or Q buttons on the multifunction steering wheel im-mediately after the(!) button on the multifunction steering Fig. 241 has been pressed.
Select the Settings menu, Assist systems submenu, ACC to set the distance to be used when the ACC is switched on 24.
Setting the gearbox programme
The acceleration response can be influenced by the gearbox programme selected. The programme can be set Using the ACC option in the Assistant submenu in the Settings menu. The following gearbox programmes can be selected:
• Normal
• Sport
• Eco
The following conditions can prevent the adaptive cruise control (ACC) from reacting:
• If the accelerator is depressed.
• If no gear is selected.
• If the ESC is taking corrective action.
• If there is a fault in several brake lights on the vehicle or on a trailer with an electrical connection to the vehicle.
• If the vehicle is reversing.
• System version 1: if the vehicle is travelling faster than approximately 160 km/h (1 00 m ph).
• System version 2: if the vehicle is travelling faster than approximately 210 km/h (130 mph).
A WARNING
If you do not maintain the minimum distance to a vehicle In front and the difference In speed between the two vehicles is so great that the braking action of the adaptive cruise control (ACC) is insufficient, you are In dan-ger of colliding with the vehicle in front. You should reduce the vehicle speed immediately with the foot brake.
• The adaptive cruise control (ACC) may not be able to detect all driving situations cor-rectly.
• Leaving your foot on the accelerator means that the adaptive cruise control (ACC) will not brake automatically. This is because manual acceleration overrides the system.
• You should always be prepared to brake the vehicle yourself.
• Observe country-specific regulations re-garding the minimum distance.
m The set speed will be deleted if the ignition or L!.J the adaptive cruise control (ACC) is switched off.
m The adaptive cruise control (ACC) is auto-L!.J matically deactivated when the traction con-trol system (TCS) is deactivated.
m In vehicles with a start/stop system, the en-L!.J gine is switched off automatically during the stationary phase of adaptive cruise control (ACC) and is then restarted for moving off. Switch off the adaptive cruise control (ACC) temporarily in the following
situations
1""111 First read and observe the introductory L-J,:.IJ Information and safety warnings & on page 298.
The adaptive cruise control (ACC) should be switched off in the following situations due to sys-tem limitations &:
304 I While driving
• When turning off roads, driving around round-abouts, narrow curves, joining motorways, exiting from motorways or driving through road works, to prevent the vehicle from unnecessarily accelerat-ing to the set speed in these situations
• When driving through a tunnel as this situation could impair the system function.
• On roads with more than one lane, if other vehi-cles are driving more slowly in the fast lane. The slower vehicles In the other lane would be overtak-en from the right side in this case.
• In heavy rain, snow or spray as vehicles travel-ling ahead cannot be monitored sufficiently or maybe cannot be monitored at all. .,.
