310 Starting passing assistance with
Adaptive Cruise Control
Several conditions must be met for passing
assistance to be possible.
Requirements for passing assistanceIn order to activate passing assistance:
your vehicle must be following a vehicle
ahead (target vehicle)
your vehicle's current speed must be
at least 70 km/h (43 mph)
the set speed for ACC must be high
enough to safely pass another vehicle.
Starting parking assistanceTo start passing assistance:
–
Turn on the left turn signal.
>
Passing assistance will start.

Passing assistance with Adaptive Cruise
Control (p. 309) Limitations of passing assistance
with Adaptive Cruise Control
Passing assistance functionality may be reduced
in certain situations.
WARNING The driver should be aware that if conditions
suddenly change when using Parking Assis-
tance, the function may implement an unde-
sired acceleration in certain conditions.
Some situations should be avoided, e.g. if:
the vehicle is approaching an exit in the
same direction as passing would normally
occur
the vehicle ahead slows before your vehi-
cle has had time to switch to the passing
lane
traffic in the passing lane slows down
a vehicle for right-hand traffic is driven in
a country with left-hand traffic (or vice
versa).
Situations of this type can be avoided by tempo-
rarily putting ACC 50
in standby mode.

Control (p. 309) Switching target vehicles with
Adaptive Cruise Control
At certain speeds, models with automatic trans-
missions and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 51
)
can switch target vehicles.
Switching target vehicles If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be
stationary traffic ahead.
When Adaptive Cruise Control is actively follow-
ing another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h
(20 mph) and switches targets from a moving
vehicle to a stationary vehicle, Adaptive Cruise
Control will brake for the stationary vehicle. 50

* Option/accessory. 311
WARNINGWhen Adaptive Cruise Control follows another
vehicle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h
(20 mph) and changes target vehicle – from a
moving vehicle to a stationary one – Adaptive
Cruise Control will ignore the stationary vehi-
cle and instead accelerate to the stored
speed.
The driver must then intervene and apply
the brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching
targets
Adaptive Cruise Control will be disabled and go
into standby mode:
if your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h
(3 mph) and Adaptive Cruise Control cannot
determine if the target object is a stationary
vehicle or another object, e.g. a speed bump.
if your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h
(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so that
Adaptive Cruise Control no longer has a vehi-
cle to follow.

Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 300) Automatic braking with Adaptive
Cruise Control
The Adaptive cruise control (ACC
52
) has a spe-
cial brake function in slow traffic and while sta-
tionary.
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 than
approx. 3 seconds. If it takes more than 3 sec-
onds for the vehicle ahead to begin moving again,
Adaptive Cruise Control will go into standby
mode and the Auto-hold brake function will acti-
vate.
– Adaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated in
one of the following ways:
Pressing the button on the steering
wheel keypad.
Pressing the accelerator pedal.
>
Adaptive Cruise Control will resume fol-
lowing the vehicle ahead if it begins to
move within approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE ACC can keep the vehicle stationary for no
more than 5 minutes – after that time the
parking brake is applied and Adaptive Cruise
Control is deactivated.
The parking brake must be released before
Adaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated.
Deactivation of the Auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, Auto-hold will be deactivated
when the vehicle is at a standstill and Adaptive
Cruise Control will go into standby mode. This
means that the brakes will be released and the
vehicle could begin to roll. The driver must
actively apply the brakes to keep the vehicle sta-
tionary.
This can occur if:
the driver depresses the brake pedal
the parking brake is applied
the gear selector is moved to the
P
, N
or R
positions
the driver puts Adaptive Cruise Control in
standby mode.
Auto Activate Parking BrakeIn certain situations, the parking brake will be
applied to keep the vehicle at a standstill. 51

312 This occurs if Adaptive Cruise Control is keeping
the vehicle stationary using the brakes and:
the driver opens the door or unbuckles
his/her seat belt
ACC has kept the vehicle at a standstill for
more than approx. 5 minutes
the brakes overheat
the driver switches off the engine manually.

Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 300) Adaptive Cruise Control limitations
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 53
) may have lim-
ited functionality in certain situations.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadsAdaptive Cruise Control is primarily intended to
be driven on flat roads. The function may not be
able to maintain the correct time interval to the
vehicle ahead when driving down steep hills. The
driver should be extra attentive and prepared to
apply the brakes.
Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control if the
vehicle is carrying a heavy load or towing a
trailer.
Other limitations
The
Off Road drive mode cannot be
selected if Adaptive Cruise Control is acti-
vated.
NOTE The function uses the vehicle's combined
camera and radar unit, which has certain gen-
eral limitations; see sections "Camera limita-
tions" and "Radar sensor limitations".

When the vehicle is approaching an off-ramp
or a fork in the road, the driver should steer
toward the desired lane to indicate to Pilot
Assist the desired direction of travel.
Pilot Assist strives to keep the vehicle
in the center of the lane
When Pilot Assist provides steering assistance, it
strives to position the vehicle in the center of the
lane between the lane markings. For the smooth-
est driving experience possible, the driver should
permit the vehicle to find the optimal positioning.
The driver should check that the vehicle is posi-
tioned safely in the lane and can always adjust
the vehicle's position by applying more force to
the steering wheel.
If Pilot Assist does not position the vehicle
appropriately in the lane, the driver should
turn off Pilot Assist or switch to Adaptive
Cruise Control.

– Press the ▶ button on the steering wheel (6).
>
Pilot Assist will start.
Pilot Assist's steering assis-
tance is only active when the
steering wheel symbol (2)
changes from GRAY to
GREEN.
Pilot Assist will only regulate
the time interval to the vehicle ahead when the
distance symbol shows a vehicle (1) over the
steering wheel symbol. A speed interval will be marked
at the same time.
The higher speed is the set
speed for your vehicle and the
lower speed is the speed of the
vehicle ahead (target vehicle).
Hands on the steering wheelPilot Assist only functions if the driver's hands
are on the steering wheel.
If Pilot Assist detects that the
driver's hands are not on the
steering wheel, a symbol and
text message will appear to
instruct the driver to actively
steer the vehicle. If the driver's hands are still detected on the
steering wheel after a few seconds have passed,
the instructions to actively steer the vehicle will
be repeated, accompanied by an audible signal.
If Pilot Assist still does not detect the driver's
hands on the steering wheel after a few more
seconds have passed, the audible signal will
become intense and the steering function will
switch off. Pilot Assist must then be reactivated
by pressing the
button on the steering
wheel.
NOTE Note that the Pilot Assist function only works
when the driver's hands are on the steering
wheel.

Select one of the following:
Eco - Pilot Assist will focus on providing
optimal fuel economy, which will increase the
time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Comfort - Pilot Assist will focus on following
the set time interval to the vehicle ahead as
smoothly as possible.
Dynamic - Pilot Assist will focus on follow-
ing the set time interval to the vehicle ahead
more exactly, which could mean faster accel-
eration and heavier braking.

Standby mode due to action by the driver
Pilot Assist will be temporarily deactivated and
put in standby mode if: the brakes are applied.
the gear selector is moved to N
a turn signal is used for more than 1 minute.
the vehicle is driven faster than the set
speed for more than 1 minute
Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera-
tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, will
not affect the setting. The vehicle will return to
the set speed when the accelerator pedal is
released.
When the turn signals are used, Pilot Assist's
steering assistance will be temporarily deacti-
vated. When the turn signal is switched off, steer-
ing assistance will be automatically reactivated if
the traffic lane's side markings can still be
detected.
Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist is dependent on other systems, such
as Electronic Stability Control (ESC 61
). 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 message
on the instrument panel.
The driver must then regulate vehicle
speed, apply the brakes if necessary, and
maintain a safe distance to other vehicles.
Adaptive Cruise Control may go into standby
mode 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 snow
or heavy rain (the camera lens/radar waves
are blocked)
your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h
(3 mph) and Pilot Assist cannot determine if
the vehicle ahead is stationary or if it is
another object, e.g. a speed bump.
your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h
(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so that
Pilot 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:
