Stability system – introduction The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system consists of a number of functions designed tohelp reduce wheel spin, counteract skidding andto generally help improve directional stability.
A pulsating sound will be audible when the system is actively operating and isnormal. Acceleration will also beslightly slower than normal.
WARNING
•The stability system (ESC) is intended to help improve driving safety but cannotdeal with all situations, or traffic, road andweather conditions. Speed and drivingstyle should always be adapted to thecurrent driving situation.
• ESC supplements, but can never replace,the driver's judgment and responsibilitywhen operating the vehicle. The driver isalways responsible for operating the vehi-cle in a safe manner in accordance withapplicable traffic regulations.
ESC consists of the following functions:
• Traction control
• Spin control
• Active Yaw Control
• Engine Drag Control •
Corner Traction Control
Traction Control (TC)
This function is designed to help reduce wheel spin at low speeds by transferring power from adrive wheel that begins to lose traction to thewheel on the opposite side of the vehicle (on thesame axle).
Spin Control (SC)
The SC function is designed to help prevent the drive wheels from spinning while the vehicle isaccelerating.
Active Yaw Control (AYC)
This function helps maintain directional stability, for example when cornering, by braking one ormore of the wheels if the vehicle shows a ten-dency to skid or slide laterally.
Corner Traction Control (CTC)
CTC compensates for understeering and helps provide additional stability when acceleratingthrough a curve by preventing the inside wheelfrom spinning. This is particularly useful whenaccelerating on a curving highway on-ramp. CTC is most effective if the stability system's Sport
mode is selected. See the section about
Sport mode.
Engine Drag Control (EDC)
EDC helps keep the engine running if the wheels show a tendency to lock, e.g., when shifting downin the Geartronic manual shifting mode or whileusing the engine's braking function on a slipperysurface. If the engine were to stop, power steer- ing would not function, making the vehicle moredifficult to steer.
Trailer Stability Assist (TSA)
The TSA helps stabilize a vehicle that is towing a trailer when the vehicle and trailer have begun tosway. See Trailer Stability Assist (TSA) (p. 294)for more information. This system is automatically deactivated if the driver selects
Sport mode.

Stability system – operation
Operation
Sport mode
The stability system is always activated and can- not be switched off.However, the driver can select Sport mode, which offers more
active driving characteristics. Sport mode can be selected in
the MY CAR menus, see My Car – introduction (p. 79).
In Sport mode, the engine management system
monitors movement of the accelerator pedal and steering wheel for sportier driving by allowingmore lateral movement of the rear wheels beforeESC is activated. Under certain circumstances, such as when driv- ing with snow chains, or driving in deep snow orloose sand, it may be advisable to temporarily use Sport mode for maximum tractive force.
If the driver releases pressure on the accelerator pedal, ETC will also activate to help stabilize thevehicle. To switch to Sport mode:
Sport mode remains active until the driver
switches it off in the menu or until the engine is switched off. ETC will return to normal modewhen the engine is restarted.

Adjustable steering force *
Steering force increases with the speed of the vehicle to give the driver enhanced sense ofcontrol and stability. At low speed the vehicle iseasy to steer in order to facilitate parking, etc.
Adjustable steering force *Steering force can be changed under MY CAR
Car settingsSteering wheel force.
Select Low, Medium or High. For a description
of the menu system, My Car – introduction (p. 79).
NOTE
This steering force level menu function can- not be accessed when the vehicle is inmotion.
NOTE
In certain situations, the power steering may become too warm and will have to be tempo-rarily cooled down. While this is happening,the power steering effect will be reducedslightly and somewhat more effort may berequired to turn the steering wheel. If this occurs, a message will be displayed in the instrument panel.
Road Sign Information (RSI) * –
introduction
RSI is a feature that helps the driver see road signs with the posted speed limit.
Introduction
Examples of readable road signs
If the vehicle passes a sign showing the speed limit, this will be displayed in the center console.
WARNING
RSI does not function in all situations and is only intended to provide supplementary infor-mation. The driver is always responsible for operating the vehicle safely.

Function overview 3
Warning light, braking by driver required
Controls in steering wheel
Radar sensor in front grille
Adaptive Cruise Control consists of:
• A cruise control system to maintain a set speed
• A system to maintain a set distance to thevehicle ahead, which is expressed as a timeinterval. For example, you can choose toremain approximately 2 seconds behind thevehicle ahead. The actual distance required to maintain a 2-second interval will varyaccording the speed of the vehicles.
WARNING
•
Adaptive Cruise Control is not a collision avoidance system. The driver is alwaysresponsible for applying the brakes if thesystem does not detect another vehicle.
• Adaptive Cruise Control does not react topeople or animals, or small vehicles suchas bicycles and motorcycles. It also doesnot react to slow moving, parked orapproaching vehicles, or stationaryobjects.
• Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control indemanding driving conditions such as citydriving or other heavy traffic situations, inslippery conditions, when there is a greatdeal of water or slush on the road, duringheavy rain or snow, in poor visibility, onwinding roads or on highway on- or off-ramps.
The distance to the vehicle ahead (in the samelane) is monitored by a radar sensor. Your vehi-cle's speed is regulated by accelerating andbraking. The brakes may emit a sound when theyare being modulated by the adaptive cruise con-trol system. This is normal.

control Cancelled is shown in the instrument
panel. The driver must then intervene and adapt the vehicle's speed to the surrounding traffic andregulate the distance to the vehicle ahead. An automatic switch to standby mode may be caused if:
• engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
• The driver's door is opened
• The driver unbuckles his/her seat belt
• the vehicle's speed goes below 18 mph(30 km/h)
• the wheels lose traction
• brake temperature is high
• the radar sensor is obstructed by, for exam-ple, wet snow or rain.
Resuming the set speedIf ACC is in standby mode, it can be reactivated by pressing the
button on the steering wheel
keypad. The vehicle will return to the most recently set speed.

Lane Keeping Aid (LKA) – operation
LKA is active at speeds above 40 mph (65 km/h) on highways or other major roads with clearlymarked side/lane marker and center lines. Onnarrow roads where the distance between side/lane marker lines is less than approximately8.5 feet ( 2.6 meters), LKA will be temporarilydeactivated.
LKA monitors and follows the marker lines (the red lines in the illustration)
•White
side marker lines: the function is
active and "sees" one or both of the road's side marker lines.
• Gray
side marker lines: the function is active
but cannot "see" one or both of the road'sside marker lines.
LKA intervening on the right side (the red line)
When LKA is working actively, this is indicated by:
• Red
side marker line: the line being crossed.
On/Off
LKA can be switched on or off by pressing the button on the center console. A light in the but-ton illuminates when the function is on. Depending on the number of optional featuresinstalled in the vehicle, there may not be spacefor the On/Off button on the center console. Ifthis is the case, LKA can be switched on or off in the
MY CAR menu system.
The following LKA-related settings can also be made in MY CAR , under

Steering assist
LKA attempts to keep the vehicle within the lane's side marker lines.
LKA provides steering assistance
If the vehicle approaches one of the lane's side marker lines and the turn signals are not
being used , LKA will attempt to steer the vehicle
back into the lane.
Vibration warnings
LKA provides vibrations in the steering wheel and steer- ing assistance 13
.
If the vehicle crosses a marker line, LKA provides a warning in the form of vibrations in the steeringwheel. This occurs even if the steering assistfunction has been deactivated.
Dynamic cornering
LKA does not intervene in sharp left curves
In certain cases, LKA allows the vehicle to cross marker lines without providing a vibration warningor steering assistance, for example, duringdynamic cornering as shown in the illustrationwhere the driver's view of the road and trafficconditions make this possible.
