Stationary phase (only vehicles with 
autornatic gearbox) 
If the adap tive  cruise  control has decele ra t  d the 
vehicle to a standstill,  the adapt.ive cruise contr o l 
will not be switched off automatically wh en  the 
brake pedal  is depressed . 
The electronic parking brake will be activated auto4 
matically and  the adap tive cruise control will be 
switched off  if one of the following situations  occurs 
while the vehicle is stationary: 
• The safety be lt is  unfastened . 
• The driver's door is opened. 
• The ignition  is switched off. 
• The stationary  phase lasts longer than approxi4 
mately 3 minutes . 
Driving off after a stationary phase (only 
vehicles with automatic gearbox) 
After a stationary  phase, the  adaptive  cruise con
trol can start the vehicle  moving automatically as 
soon as the vehicle  in front  begins  to move again. 
Overtaking 
If the turn signal  is activated when starting  an over
taking manoeuvre , the  adaptive  cruise control ac
celerates the  vehicle automatically and  thus re
duces the  distance to the  vehicle  in front. 
If you move  your vehicle  into the overtaking  lane 
and there is no  vehicle ahead of you , the ACC will 
automatically increase  the speed  to your set level 
and maintain  it. 
Acceleration  can be stopped  at any  point 
by de
Pressing the brake  pedal or pressing  the @ button 
on the multifunction  steering wheel ~page 229.
