Your vehicle's driving systems are described
on the following pages:
R Cruise control* and Speedtronic*, whic h
you can use to control the speed of th e
vehicl e
R Hill start assist, which makes pulling away
on steep uphill gradients easie r
R ADVANCED AGILITY package with sports
mode*
R 4MATIC* (permanent four-wheel drive )
R Parktronic*, which assists you in parking
and manoeuvrin g
The ABS, BAS, adaptive brake lights, ESP ®
and EBV (electronic brake-power distribution )
driving safety systems are described in the
"Driving safety systems" section
( Y page 67). Cruise control*
Cruise control maintains a constant road
speed for you. It brakes automatically in order
to avoid exceeding the set speed. On long and
steep downhill gradients, especially if the
vehicle is laden or towing a trailer, you must
shift to a lower gear in good time or select
shift range 1,2 or 3in vehicles with automatic
transmission*. In this way you will make use
of the braking effect of the engine, which
relieves the load on the brake system and
prevents the brakes from overheating and
wearing too quickly. G
Risk of accident
Do not change down for additional engine
braking on a slippery road surface. Thi s
could cause the drive wheels to lose thei r
grip and the vehicle could skid.
Use cruise control only if road and traffic con-
ditions make it appropriate to maintain a
steady speed for a prolonged period. You can
store any road speed above 30 km/h. G
Risk of accident
Cruise control cannot take account of roa d
and traffic conditions. Controls

6 Always pay attention to traffic conditions
even when cruise control is activated
.
Cruise control is only an aid designed to
assist driving. You are responsible for th e
vehicle's speed and for braking in good
time. G
Risk of accident
Do not use cruise control :
R in road and traffic conditions which do
not allow you to maintain a constant
speed (e.g. heavy traffic or windin g
roads). You could otherwise cause an
accident.
R on slippery roads. Braking or accelerat-
ing could cause the drive wheels to lose
traction and the vehicle could then skid.
R when there is poor visibility, e.g. due to
fog, heavy rain or snow
