speed drops below approx. 19 mph (30 km/h), for
example when driving upgrade, the cruise control
will be canceled.

inoperative until the engine is restarted, have the
system checked at your authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center as soon as possible.

If the lever is briefly pushed to position 4 when
driving at a speed exceeding approx. 19 mph

steady speed.• The use of cruise control can be dangerous on
winding roads or in heavy traffic because
conditions do not allow safe driving at a steady
speed.
• The use of cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. Rapid changes in tire adhesion
can result in wheel spin and loss of control.The “Resume” function should only be operated if
the driver is fully aware of the previously set speed
and wishes to resume this particular preset speed.
