Electronic Stability Control
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC 1
) func-
tion helps the driver avoid skidding and improves the vehicle's directional stability.
This symbol will be displayed in the instrument panel whenthe system is intervening. When the system has inter- vened to apply the brakes, apulsing sound may be heard
and the vehicle may accelerate more slowlythan expected when the accelerator pedal isdepressed.
The system consists of the following sub-func- tions:
Stability control 2
Spin control and active yaw control
Engine drag control
Trailer Stability Assist
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate drivingand help make it safer – it cannot han-dle all situations in all traffic, weatherand road conditions.
The driver is advised to read all sec-tions in the Owner's Manual about thisfunction to learn of its limitations,which the driver must be aware ofbefore using the function.
Driver support functions are not a sub-stitute for the driver's attention andjudgment. The driver is always respon-sible for ensuring the vehicle is drivenin a safe manner, at the appropriatespeed, with an appropriate distance toother vehicles, and in accordance withcurrent traffic rules and regulations.

Using engine braking instead of applying the brakes
Cruise Control regulates speed by lightly applying the brakes. On downgrades, it cansometimes be desirable to roll a bit faster andlet speed be reduced instead by engine brak-ing alone. The driver can temporarily disen-gage the Cruise Control braking function. To disengage CC:
–Press the accelerator pedal about halfway down and then release it.
> Cruise Control will automatically disen-
gage the automatic brake function and speed will only be reduced using theengine braking function.

put in standby mode. This may happen auto- matically or be due to driver intervention.
Standby mode means that the function is selected in the instrument panel but not acti-vated. In standby mode, cruise control will notregulate speed.
Standby mode due to action by the
driver
Cruise control will be deactivated and put instandby mode if any of the following occurs:
The brakes are applied.
The gear selector is moved to
N.
The vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute.
The driver must then control the vehicle'sspeed. Temporarily increasing speed using the accel- erator pedal, e.g. when passing another vehi-cle, will not affect the setting. The vehicle willreturn to the set speed when the acceleratorpedal is released.
Automatic standby modeThe function may automatically go intostandby mode if one of the following occurs: The wheels lose traction.
The engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
The temperature in the brake system becomes too high.
The vehicle's speed goes below 30 km/h(20 mph).
The driver must then control the vehicle'sspeed.

Adaptive Cruise Control

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 33
) can help the
driver to maintain a constant speed, com- bined with a preset time interval to the vehi-cle in front.
The camera/radar sensor measures the distance to the vehicle ahead.
Adaptive Cruise Control can help provide a more relaxed driving experience on long tripson highways or long, straight roads with eventraffic flows. The driver sets a speed and a time interval to the vehicle ahead. If the camera/radar sensordetects a slower-moving vehicle ahead, yourvehicle's speed will be automatically adaptedaccording to the set time interval to that vehi-

limited functionality in certain situations.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadsAdaptive Cruise Control is primarily intended to be driven on flat roads. The function maynot be able to maintain the correct time inter-val to the vehicle ahead when driving downsteep hills. The driver should be extra attentiveand prepared to apply the brakes. Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control if the vehi- cle is carrying a heavy load or towing a trailer.
Drive mode unavailableThe Off Road drive mode cannot be selected
if Adaptive Cruise Control is activated.
WARNING
This is not a collision avoidance sys- tem. The driver is always responsibleand must intervene if the system failsto detect a vehicle ahead.
The function does not brake for peopleor animals and does not brake for smallvehicles, such as bikes and motorcy-cles. Similarly, it does not brake for lowtrailers, oncoming, slow-moving or sta-tionary vehicles and objects.
Do not use the function in demandingsituations, such as in city traffic, atintersections, on slippery surfaces,with a lot of water or slush on the road,in heavy rain/snow, in poor visibility, onwinding roads, or on on/off ramps.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain generallimitations.

The camera/radar sensor monitors the distance to the vehicle ahead and detects lane markings.
Camera and radar sensor

Pilot Assist helps to steer the vehicle, and you may need to drive a few miles with Pilot Assistbefore you feel completely at home with the function. It is important to be familiar with all of the function's applications and limitations in order to take advantage of all it has to offer. The Pilot Assist function is primarily intended for use on highways and other major roadswhere it can help provide a more comfortableand relaxing driving experience. The driver sets the desired speed and distance to the vehicle ahead. Pilot Assist monitors thedistance to the vehicle ahead and the trafficlane's side markers using the camera. The sys-tem maintains the set time interval to the vehi-cle ahead by automatically adjusting your vehi-cle's speed and keeps your vehicle in its laneby providing steering assistance. If the Curve Speed Assist (CSA)
* function is
activated, it may also affect the vehicle's speed. Pilot Assist regulates speed by accelerating and braking. It is normal for the brakes to emita slight sound when they are being used toadjust speed. Pilot Assist is designed to:
smoothly regulate speed. The driver must apply the brakes in situations requiringimmediate braking. For example, whenthere are great differences in speedbetween vehicles or if the vehicle aheadbrakes suddenly. Due to limitations in the camera and radar sensor, braking mayoccur unexpectedly or not at all.
follow a vehicle ahead in the same laneand maintain a time interval to that vehicleset by the driver. If the radar sensor doesnot detect a vehicle ahead, it will insteadmaintain the speed set by the driver. Thiswill also happen if the speed of the vehicleahead exceeds the set speed for your vehi-cle.
The vehicle's position in the traffic
lane
When Pilot Assist helps to steer, it attempts toposition the vehicle halfway between the visi-ble lane marking lines. For a smoother drive, itis a good idea to allow the vehicle to find agood position. The driver can always adjustthe position him/herself by increasing steeringinput. It is important for the driver to makesure the vehicle is positioned safely in the lane. If Pilot Assist does not position the vehicle appropriately in the lane, the driver should turnoff Pilot Assist or switch to Adaptive Cruise Control *.

Pilot Assist will be switched off if thespeed-dependent power steeringwheel resistance is working at reducedpower, e.g. during cooling due to over-heating.
WARNING
Pilot Assist should only be used if there are clear lane lines painted on each side of thelane. All other use will increase the risk ofcontact with nearby obstacles that cannotbe detected by the functions.
WARNING
This is not a collision avoidance sys- tem. The driver is always responsibleand must intervene if the system failsto detect a vehicle ahead.

The driver can always correct or adjust steer-ing assistance provided by Pilot Assist by turn-ing the steering wheel to the desired position.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadsPilot Assist is primarily intended to be drivenon flat roads. The function may not be able tomaintain the correct time interval to the vehi-cle ahead when driving down steep hills. Thedriver should be extra attentive and preparedto apply the brakes. Do not use Pilot Assist if the vehicle is carryinga heavy load or towing a trailer.
