Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist is dependent on other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control (ESC65
). If any of
these other systems stops working, Pilot Assist will automatically switch off.
WARNING
With automatic standby mode, the driver is warned by an acoustic signal and a messageon the instrument panel. • The driver must then regulate vehicle speed, apply the brakes if necessary, andmaintain a safe distance to other vehicles.
Adaptive Cruise Control may go into standbymode if, e.g.: • the driver opens the door.
• the brake temperature is high.
• the driver's hands are not on the steering wheel.
• the parking brake is applied.
• the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt.
• one or more of the wheels lose traction.
• the camera/radar sensor is covered by snowor heavy rain (the camera lens/radar wavesare blocked) •
your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and Pilot Assist cannot determine ifthe vehicle ahead is stationary or if it isanother object, e.g. a speed bump.
• your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so thatPilot Assist no longer has a vehicle to follow.Reactivating Pilot Assist from standby
mode
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
To reactivate Pilot Assist:
–Press the button on the steering wheel
(1).
> Speed will be set to the most recently stored speed.
WARNING
A noticeable increase in speed may follow when the speed is resumed with the
steering wheel button.

Switching target vehicles with PilotAssist
At certain speeds, models with automatic trans-
missions and Pilot Assist can switch target vehi-cles.
Switching target vehicles
If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be stationary traffic ahead.
When Pilot Assist is actively following another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h (20 mph) and
switches targets from a moving vehicle to a sta-
tionary vehicle, Pilot Assist will brake for the sta-tionary vehicle.
WARNING
When Pilot Assist follows another vehicle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h (20 mph) and
changes target vehicle – from a moving vehi- cle to a stationary one – Pilot Assist will ignore the stationary vehicle and instead
accelerate to the stored speed.
• The driver must then intervene and apply the brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching
targets
Pilot Assist disengages and goes into standby mode if:
• your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and Pilot Assist cannot determine ifthe target object is a stationary vehicle oranother object, e.g. a speed bump.
• your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so thatPilot Assist no longer has a vehicle to follow.

Automatic braking with Pilot Assist
Pilot Assist has a special braking function in slow traffic and at a standstill.
Braking function in slow traffic and at a standstill
In slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stop- ped at a traffic light, driving will resume automati-cally if the vehicle is stopped for less thanapprox. 3 seconds. If it takes more than 3 sec-onds for the vehicle ahead to begin moving again,Pilot Assist will go into standby mode and theAuto-hold brake function will activate.
–Pilot Assist can be reactivated by:
• Pressing the
button on the steering
wheel keypad.
• Pressing the accelerator pedal.
> Pilot Assist will resume following the vehi- cle ahead if it begins to move within approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE
Pilot Assist can keep the vehicle stationary for no more than 5 minutes – after that timethe parking brake is applied and the functionis deactivated. The parking brake must be released before Pilot Assist can be reactivated.

The driver is responsible for ensuring that the vehicle maintains a suitable distancefrom such obstacles.
• The camera and radar sensors do nothave the capacity to detect all oncomingobjects and obstacles in traffic environ-ments, e.g. potholes, stationary obstaclesor objects that completely or partiallyblock the route.
• Pilot Assist does not "see" pedestrians,animals, etc.
• The recommended steering input is lim-ited in force, which means that it cannotalways help the driver to steer and keepthe vehicle within the lane.
• Pilot Assist is switched off if the powersteering is working with reduced power -e.g. during cooling due to overheating(see section "Speed-dependent steeringforce").
The driver can always correct or adjust steeringassistance provided by Pilot Assist by turning thesteering wheel to the desired position.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadsPilot Assist is primarily intended to be driven onflat roads. The function may not be able to main-tain the correct time interval to the vehicle aheadwhen driving down steep hills. The driver should be extra attentive and prepared to apply thebrakes.
• Do not use Pilot Assist if the vehicle is carry-ing a heavy load or towing a trailer.
NOTE
Pilot Assist cannot be activated if a trailer, bike carrier or similar is connected to thevehicle electrical system.
Other limitations
•
The Off Road drive mode cannot be
selected when Pilot Assist is activated.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera unit, which has some general limitations – see thesection "Camera unit limitations".
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's radar unit, which has some general limitations – see thesection "Radar unit limitations".

City Safety
™
City Safety can alert the driver with light, sound and pulsations in the brake pedal to help thedriver detect pedestrians, cyclists, large animalsand vehicles that appear suddenly – the vehiclewill then attempt to automatically brake if thedriver does not act within a reasonable amountof time.
Location of the camera and radar sensor 74
.
City Safety can help prevent a collision or lower the vehicle's speed at the point of impact. City Safety is an aid intended to assist the driver if a collision with a pedestrian, large animal,cyclist or vehicle is imminent. City Safety can help the driver avoid a collision when e.g. driving in stop-and-go traffic, when changes in the traffic ahead and driver distractioncould lead to an incident. The function assists the driver by automatically applying the brakes if there is an imminent risk ofa collision and the driver does not react in time bybraking and/or steering away. City Safety activates a brief, forceful braking in an attempt to stop your vehicle immediately behindthe vehicle or object ahead. City Safety is activated in situations in which the driver should have applied the brakes much ear-lier, which means that the system will not be ableto assist the driver in all situations. City Safety is designed to be activated as late as possible to help avoid unnecessary intervention. Normally, the occupants of the vehicle will not be aware of City Safety except when the systemintervenes when a collision is imminent.

WARNING
•The City Safety function is supplementary driver support intended to help improvedriving safety – it cannot handle all situa-tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-tions.
• The City Safety auto-brake function canprevent a collision or reduce collisionspeed, but to ensure full brake perform-ance the driver should always depress thebrake pedal – even when the car auto-brakes.
• The warning and steering assistance areonly activated if there is a high risk of col-lision – you must therefore never wait forthe collision warning or City Safety tointervene.
• Warnings and brake interventions forpedestrians and cyclists are disengagedat vehicle speeds over 80 km/h(50 mph).
• City Safety does not activate auto-brakingintervention during heavy acceleration.
• City Safety is not a substitute for the driv-er's attention and judgment. The driver isalways responsible for ensuring the vehi-cle is driven in a safe manner, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.
• The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual that relate to CitySafety to learn about factors such as itslimitations and what the driver should beaware of before using the system (seethe list of links for all subsections).

City Safety parameters and sub-functions
City Safety can help avoid a collision with a vehi- cle, cyclist or large animal ahead by reducing thevehicle's speed using its automatic braking func-tion. If the difference in speed is greater than the speeds specified below, the City Safety auto-brake function cannot prevent a collision, but itcan help mitigate its effects.
Vehicles
City Safety can help prevent a collision with a vehicle ahead by reducing your vehicle's speedby up to 60 km/h (37 mph).
Cyclists
City Safety can help prevent a collision with a cyclist ahead by reducing your vehicle's speed byup to 50 km/h (30 mph).
Pedestrians
City Safety can help prevent a collision with a pedestrian ahead by reducing your vehicle'sspeed by up to 45 km/h (28 mph).

City Safety steering assistance forevasive maneuver City Safety steering assistance can help the driver steer away from vehicles or obstacleswhen a collision cannot be avoided by brakingalone.
Your vehicle swerves away
Slow-moving/stationary vehicle or obstacle.
City Safety helps provide assistance by strength- ening the driver's steering movements, but only ifthe driver has begun evasive action and the sys-tem detects that the driver's steering movementsare not sufficient to avoid a collision. The brake system is used simultaneously to fur- ther strengthen steering movements. The func-tion also helps stabilize the vehicle after it haspassed the obstacle. City Safety steering assistance can detect: •
vehicles
• cyclists
• pedestrians
• large animals
WARNING
• The possibility of City Safety predicting a certain situation is supplementary driversupport intended to improve driving safety– it cannot handle all situations in all traf-fic, weather and road conditions.
• City Safety is not a substitute for the driv-er's attention and judgment. The driver isalways responsible for ensuring the vehi-cle is driven in a safe manner, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.

City Safety and delayed evasivemaneuvers City Safety can assist the driver by automatically braking the vehicle when it is not possible toavoid a collision by steering alone.
City Safety assists the driver by periodically attempting to predict possible "escape routes" tothe sides of the vehicle in the event a slow-mov-ing or stationary vehicle were to be detected at alate stage.
Your vehicle (1) cannot detect any potential escape routes for veering away from the vehicle ahead (2) andmay therefore apply the brakes at an earlier stage.
Own vehicle
Slow-moving/stationary vehicles
City Safety will not intervene to automatically apply the brakes if it is possible for the driver toavoid a collision by steering the vehicle. However, if City Safety determines that an eva-sive maneuver would not be possible due to traf-fic in the adjacent lane(s), the function can assistthe driver by automatically starting to apply thebrakes at an earlier stage.
