The same symbol is also shown when Dis- tance Warning (p. 202) function is activated.
NOTE
Only use the time intervals permitted by local traffic regulations. If Cruise Control does not appear to react when activated, this may be because thetime distance to the car in front is prevent-ing an increase in speed. The higher the speed the longer the calcu- lated distance in metres for a given timeinterval.

Adaptive cruise control* - temporary deactivation, and standby mode
The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain aneven speed and a safe distance from the vehi-cle ahead. The cruise control can be tempo-rarily deactivated and set in standby mode.
Temporary deactivation - standby mode
with Speed limiter
To temporarily disengage the adaptive cruisecontrol and set it in standby mode:
• Press the steering wheel button
This symbol and the stored speed's marking then change colour fromGREEN to WHITE.
Temporary deactivation - standby mode without Speed limiter
To temporarily disengage the adaptive cruise control and set it in standby mode:
• Press the steering wheel button
Standby mode due to driver interventionCruise control is temporarily disengaged and set in standby mode if:
• the foot brake is used
• the clutch pedal is depressed for longer than 1 minute 9 •
the gear selector is moved to
N position
(automatic gearbox)
• the driver maintains a speed higher than the set speed for longer than 1 minute.
The driver must then regulate the speed. A temporary increase in speed with the accel- erator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does notaffect the cruise control setting - the carreturns to the last stored speed when theaccelerator pedal is released.
Automatic standby modeThe adaptive cruise control is dependent onother systems, e.g. DSTC (Stability and trac-tion control system) (p. 175). If any of thesesystems stop working then cruise control isautomatically deactivated. In the event of automatic deactivation a signal will sound and the message
Cruise control
Cancelled is shown in the combined instru-
ment panel. The driver must then intervene and adapt the speed and distance to thevehicle ahead. An automatic deactivation can be due to:
• the driver opens the door
• the driver takes off his seatbelt
• engine speed is too low/high
• speed has fallen below 30 km/h 10

Disengaging and selecting a higher or lower gear does not involve standby mode.
10 Does not apply to a car with Queue Assistant - it manages right down to stationary.

Adaptive cruise control* - fault tracing and action
The adaptive cruise control (p. 188) (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver tomaintain an even speed and a safe distancefrom the vehicle ahead. If the combined instrument panel shows the message
Radar blocked See manual this means that the radar signals from the radar sensor (p. 197) are blocked and that vehiclesin front of the car cannot be detected. In turn this means that - apart from Adaptive Cruise Control - Distance Warning (p. 202)and Collision Warning (p. 212) with AutoBrake are not operating either.
The following table presents examples ofpossible causes for a message being shownalong with the appropriate action:
CauseAction
The radar surface in the grille is dirty or covered with ice or snow.Clean the radar surface in the grille from dirt, ice and snow.
Heavy rain or snow blocking the radar signals.No action. Sometimes the radar does not work during heavy rain or snowfall.
Water or snow from the road surface swirls up and blocks the radar signals.No action. Sometimes the radar does not work on a very wet or snowy road surface.
The radar surface has been cleaned but the message remains.Wait. It could take several minutes for the radar to sense that it is no longer blocked.

Parking brake
The parking brake holds the car stationary, when the driver's seat is empty, by mechani-cally locking/blocking two wheels.
FunctionA faint electric motor noise can be heardwhen the electrical parking brake is beingapplied. The noise can also be heard duringthe automatic function checking of the park-ing brake. If the car is stationary when the parking brake is applied then it only acts on the rear wheels.If it is applied when the car is moving then thenormal foot brake is used, i.e. the brake actson all four wheels. Brake function changesover to the rear wheels when the car is almoststationary.
Low battery voltageIf the battery voltage is too low then the park-ing brake can neither be released nor applied.Connect a donor battery if the battery voltageis too low, see Jump starting with battery (p.270).
Applying the parking brake
Parking brake control - apply.
1. Press the foot brake pedal down firmly.
2. Press the control PUSH LOCK/PULL
RELEASE .
>
The combined instrument pan-
el's symbol starts flashing - once there is a constant glow the parking brake isapplied.
3. Release the foot brake pedal and make sure that the car is at a standstill position.
• When parking the vehicle, always engage 1st gear (for manual gearbox) or put thegear selector in position
P (for automatic
gearbox).
Emergency brakeIn an emergency the parking brake can be applied when the vehicle is in motion by pressing and holding the control for
PUSH
LOCK/PULL RELEASE . The braking proce-
dure is stopped when the control is released.
NOTE
In the event of emergency braking at speeds above 10 km/h a signal soundsduring the braking procedure.
Parking on a hillIf the car is parked facing uphill:
• Turn the wheels
away from the kerb.
If the car is parked facing downhill: • Turn the wheels
towards the kerb.
WARNING
Always apply the parking brake when parking on a slope - leaving the car ingear, or in P if it has automatic transmis-
sion, is not sufficient to hold the car in allsituation.
