Adaptive cruise control (Adaptive Cruise Control - ACC) or Pilot Assist can assist the driver whenovertaking other vehicles.
When ACC or Pilot Assist is following another vehicle and the driver indicates the intention to overtake by activating the direction indicator

–Activate the direction indicator. Use the left direction indicator in a car with the steering wheel on the left, or the rightdirection indicator in a car with the steeringwheel on the right.
> Overtaking assistance is started.
LimitationsWhen using Overtaking Assistance the driver should be prepared for sudden changes in condi-tions. In some conditions Overtaking Assistancecan cause unwanted acceleration. Some situations should be avoided for this rea- son. Examples of such situations are:
• the car is approaching an exit road in orderto turn off in the same direction that is nor-mally used for overtaking
• the vehicle in front slows before your car hasentered the overtaking lane
• traffic in the overtaking lane is slowing
• a car designed for right-hand traffic is beingdriven in a country with left-hand traffic (orvice versa).
Situations of this kind can be avoided by tempo-rarily setting ACC or Pilot Assist in standby mode.

Change of target and automatic braking with the Adaptive CruiseControl
In combination with automatic gearbox, the adaptive cruise control (Adaptive Cruise Control- ACC ) has functionality for change of targetand braking at certain speeds.
Change of target
If the target vehicle in front suddenly turns then there may be stationary traffic in front.
When the adaptive cruise control is following another vehicle at speeds below 30 km/h
(20 mph) and the target is changed from a mov- ing vehicle to a stationary vehicle, the adaptivecruise control will brake for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING
When the adaptive cruise control is following another vehicle at speeds in excess of
approx. 30 km/h (20 mph) and the target is changed from a moving vehicle to a stationaryvehicle, the adaptive cruise control will ignorethe stationary vehicle and instead select thestored speed.
• The driver must then intervene him/ herself and brake.
Automatic standby mode with change of target
The adaptive cruise control is disengaged and set in standby mode: • when the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and the adaptive cruise control is uncertainwhether the target object is a stationary vehi-cle or some other object, such as a speedbump.
• when the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph)and the vehicle ahead turns off so the adap-tive cruise control no longer has a vehicle tofollow.
Automatic brakingFor shorter stops in connection with inching inslow traffic or at traffic lights driving is automati-cally resumed if the stops do not exceed about3 seconds - if it takes longer before the car in

300 front starts moving again then the adaptive cruise control is set in standby mode with automaticbraking.
–The Adaptive Cruise Control is reactivated in one of the following ways:
• Press the steering wheel button
.
• Depress the accelerator pedal.
> The Adaptive Cruise Control resumes fol- lowing the vehicle ahead if it starts mov- ing forward within 6 seconds.
NOTE
ACC can keep the car stationary for a maxi- mum of 5 minutes. After this the parkingbrake is applied and adaptive cruise control isdisengaged. The parking brake must be released before the adaptive cruise control can be reactivated.
Cessation of automatic braking
In some situations, automatic braking ceases on reaching 0 km/h and Adaptive Cruise Control isset in standby mode. This means that the brakesare released and the car may start to roll - thedriver must therefore intervene and brake the carhimself/herself to keep it stationary. This may take place in the following situations:
• the driver puts his/her foot on the brakepedal
• the parking brake is applied
• the gear selector is moved to
P, N , or R posi-
tion
• the driver sets the adaptive cruise control inthe standby mode.
Automatic activation of parking brakeIn certain situations the parking brake is appliedto keep the car stationary. This takes place if the adaptive cruise control is holding the car stationary with the foot brake and: •the driver opens the door or takes off his/her seatbelt
• ACC has kept the car stationary for morethan approx. 5 minutes
• the brakes have overheated
• the engine is switched off.

Limitations of the adaptive cruise control *
The (Adaptive Cruise Control - ACC) may have limitations in certain situations.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadBear in mind that the adaptive cruise control is primarily intended for use when driving on levelroad surfaces. The function may have difficulty inkeeping the correct distance from the vehicleahead when driving on steep downhill slopes - inwhich case, be extra attentive and ready to brake.Do not use the adaptive cruise control with aheavy load or with a trailer connected to the car.
Miscellaneous
• Drive mode Off Road cannot be selected
when the adaptive cruise control is activated.
NOTE
The function uses the car's radar unit, which has some general limitations, see the "Limita-tions for radar unit" section.

Pilot Assist *
Pilot Assist helps the driver to drive the car between the lane's side markings using steeringassistance as well as to maintain an even speed,combined with a preselected time interval to thevehicle ahead.
The Pilot Assist function gives more comfortable driving and a more relaxed driving experienceduring, for example, long journeys on motorwaysin even traffic flows.
The camera and radar unit measures the distance to the vehicle ahead and detects side markings 9
.
Camera and radar unit
Distance readers
Readers, side markings The driver selects the desired speed and a time interval to the vehicle ahead. Pilot Assist scansthe distance to the vehicle ahead and the lane'sside markings on the road surface using thecamera and radar unit. The preset time interval ismaintained with automatic speed adjustmentwhilst the steering assistance helps to positionthe car in the lane. Pilot Assist steering assistance takes into account the speed of the preceding car and thelane markings. The driver can at any time ignorethe Pilot Assist steering recommendation andsteer in another direction, e.g. to change lane oravoid an obstruction on the road. If Pilot Assist cannot interpret the lane unambig- uously, e.g. if the camera and radar unit does notsee the lane's side markings, Pilot Assist tempo-rarily deactivates steering assistance, butresumes it if the lane can be interpreted again -although the speed and distance control func-tions remain active.
NOTE
Pilot Assist steering assistance is deactivated and is resumed without prior warning.
The current status of steering assistance is indicated by thecolour of the steering wheel'ssymbol: • GREEN steering wheel indi- cates active steering assis-
tance • GREY steering wheel (as in illustration) indi- cates deactivated steering assistance.

(2).
> Pilot Assist is started and current speed is stored, which is shown with figures in the centre of the speedometer.
...or... With the adaptive cruise control started:
–Press ▶ (6).
> Pilot Assist is started.
Pilot Assist steering assistance is only active when the steeringwheel symbol (2) has changedfrom GREY to GREEN. Pilot Assist only regulates the time interval to the vehicle
ahead when the distance symbol shows a vehicle(1) above the steering wheel symbol.
At the same time a speed range is marked. The higher speed is the stored/selected speed and thelower speed is that of the vehi-cle ahead (target vehicle).
Hands on the steering wheelIn order for Pilot Assist to function, the driver must have his/her hands on the steering wheel.The system continually monitors this. If hands arenot detected on the steering wheel then a textmessage is shown, prompting the driver toactively steer the car. If this is not done, anacoustic warning signal will also be given. If that does not prompt the driver to put his/her hands on the steering wheel either, Pilot Assistchanges to standby mode. Following which, PilotAssist must be restarted with the steering wheel button
.
NOTE
Note that Pilot Assist only works when the driver has hands on the steering wheel.

Setting the time interval for Pilot Assist *
Pilot Assist can be set with different time inter- vals.
Different time intervals to the vehicle in front can be selectedand shown in the driver displayas 1-5 horizontal lines - themore lines the longer the timeinterval. One line representsabout 1 second to the vehicle
in front, 5 lines represents about 3 seconds.
NOTE
When the symbol in the driver display shows a car and a steering wheel, Pilot Assist fol-lows a vehicle in front at a preset time gap. When only one steering wheel is shown, there is no vehicle within a reasonable distanceahead.
Control for time interval.
Decrease time interval
Increase time interval
Distance indicator
–Press the steering wheel button (1) or (2) to increase or decrease the time interval.
> The distance indicator (3) shows the cur- rent time interval.
In order to follow the vehicle ahead in a smooth and comfortable way, Pilot Assist allows the timeinterval to vary noticeably in certain conditions.For example, at low speed, when the distancesbecome short, Pilot Assist increases the timeinterval slightly. Note that a short time interval only allows the driver a short time to react and take action if anyunforeseen problem should arise.
NOTE
Only use the time intervals permitted by local traffic regulations. If Pilot Assist does not appear to react when activated, this may be because the time dis-tance to the vehicle in front is preventing anincrease in speed. The higher the speed the longer the calcula- ted distance in metres for a given time inter-val.

Deactivating/activating the Pilot Assist*
Pilot Assist can be temporarily deactivated so that it is set in the standby mode and can bereactivated later.
Deactivating and setting Pilot Assist in
standby mode
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
To temporarily switch off Pilot Assist and set it in standby mode:
–Press the steering wheel button (2).
> Pilot Assist is set in standby mode - the symbol (8) in the driver display changes colour from WHITE to GREY and thestored speed in the centre of the speed-ometer changes from BEIGE to GREY.
...or...
–Press ◀ (3).
> Pilot Assist is switched off and changes to the adaptive cruise control in active mode.
In standby mode, the driver is no longer given anydriver steering recommendations and must con-trol both speed and distance him/herself. When Pilot Assist is in standby mode and the car drives too close to a vehicle ahead, the driver iswarned about the short distance by the DistanceWarning function instead (see reference to theheading "Distance Warning" at the end of thissection).
Standby mode on driver intervention
Pilot Assist is temporarily deactivated and set in standby mode if:
• the foot brake is used
• the gear selector is moved to
N position.
• the direction indicators are used for longerthan 1 minute .
• the driver maintains a speed higher than thestored speed for longer than 1 minute.
• the clutch pedal is depressed forapprox. 1 minute - applies to cars with man-ual gearbox.
A temporary increase in speed with the accelera-tor pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not affectthe setting - the car returns to the last storedspeed when the accelerator pedal is released. When the direction indicators are used, PilotAssist steering assistance is temporarily disen-gaged. When this is no longer the case, steeringassistance is automatically reactivated if thelane's side markings can still be detected.

Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist is dependent on other systems, e.g. stability control/anti-skid ESC. If any of theseother systems stops working, Pilot Assist isswitched off automatically. In the event of automatic deactivation a signal will sound and a message is shown in the driver dis-play. The driver must then intervene and adaptthe speed and distance to the vehicle ahead. Automatic deactivation may occur if:
• the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and Pilot Assist is uncertain whether the vehicle aheadis a stationary vehicle or an object, such as aspeed bump.
• the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and thevehicle ahead turns off so that Pilot Assist nolonger has a vehicle to follow.
• speed is reduced to below 30 km/h(20 mph) - only applies to cars with manualgearbox.
• the driver's hands are not on the steeringwheel
• the driver opens the door
• the driver takes off the seatbelt
• engine speed is too low/high
• wheels lose traction
• brake temperature is high
• the parking brake is applied •
the camera and radar unit is covered by e.g.snow or heavy rainfall (camera lens/radiowaves are blocked).
Reactivating Pilot Assist from the
standby mode
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
–Press the steering wheel button (1).
> The speed is then set to the most recently stored speed.
NOTE
A marked speed increase may occur once the speed has been resumed by pressing steer- ing wheel button
