Manual gear change mode is effective when rapid
acceleration and engine braking are required.
• To shift down, briefly pull the left (downshift) paddle.
• To shift up, briefly pull the right (upshift) paddle.
When the paddles are used in D, gear selection will revert
to automatic if use of the paddles is not maintained. With
S selected, continuous manual operation is initiated if the
paddles are used.

NOT use
this feature to enable towing of the vehicle. Refer to
Vehicle recovery in the Owner’s Handbook.
Releasing
• With the ignition on, apply the foot brake and press
down on the EPB switch.
• If the vehicle is stationary with the EPB applied and
either D or R selected, pressing the accelerator will
automatically release the EPB.

Setting Cruise control speed
1. Press to set Cruise control
at the current speed.
2. Resumes the set speed
after a cancellation.
3. Press to decrease set
speed until the desired new
speed is reached.
4. Press to cancel but retain the set speed in memory.
Cruise control will also cancel if the brake pedal is
pressed, or if vehicle speed falls below 20 mph (32 km/h).
Adaptive cruise control (ACC)
This enhancement uses a front mounted radar to monitor
traffic ahead. ACC can be programmed to maintain a set
gap to the vehicle ahead. If the vehicle ahead is traveling
slower than the set speed, your vehicle will automatically
slow down and then maintain the set gap until the road
ahead clears. At that point your vehicle will accelerate to
the set speed.

the vehicle’s driving characteristics to suit prevailing
conditions.
Blind spot monitoring
Each mirror displays amber icons to warn of overtaking
vehicles in adjacent lanes. The monitored area extends
approximately 20 ft (6 meters) behind the rear wheels
and 8.2 ft (2.5 meters) to the sides.
It switches on automatically at speeds of above 10mph
(16 km/h) while in a forward gear.
Care point
When negotiating a steep downhill gradient, vehicle
speed may exceed the set speed. The Message
center will display a warning. Driver intervention
may be required to reduce the speed.
