144Driving and operatingIncrease speed
With cruise control active, the vehicle
speed can be increased continuously or in small increments by holding
down or tapping < repeatedly.
When the switch is released the
current speed is stored and
maintained.
Alternatively, accelerate to the
desired speed and store by pressing
< .
Reduce speed
With cruise control active, the vehicle
speed can be decreased
continuously or in small increments
by holding down or tapping ]
repeatedly.
When the switch is released the
current speed is stored and
maintained.
Deactivation Press §: cruise control is deactivated
and the green control indicator m
extinguishes in the instrument cluster.Automatic deactivation:
● vehicle speed drops below 20 mph
● the brake pedal is depressed
● the clutch pedal is depressed
● selector lever in N
The speed is stored and a
corresponding message appears in
the DIC.
Reactivation Press R at a speed above 20 mph.
If the stored speed is much higher
than the current speed, the vehicle
will accelerate powerfully until the
stored speed is obtained.
Pressing < will also reactivate the
cruise control function, but at the
current vehicle speed only, not the stored speed.
Deleting the stored speedPress m: Green control indicators
U and m extinguish in the instrument
cluster.Cruise control speed limiter
The speed limiter prevents the
vehicle exceeding a preset maximum speed above 20 mph.
Activation
Press U, control indicator U
illuminates yellow in the instrument
cluster.
Cruise control speed limiter function
is now in standby mode and a
corresponding message appears in
the DIC.
Accelerate to the desired speed and
press < or ]. The current speed is
recorded.
Driving and operating145The vehicle can be driven normally
but it will not be possible to exceed the
programmed speed limit except in an
emergency.
Where the limit speed cannot be
maintained, e.g. when driving on a
steep decline, the limit speed will
flash in the DIC.
Increase limit speed
The limit speed can be increased
continuously or in small increments
by holding down or tapping <
repeatedly.
Reduce limit speed
The limit speed can be decreased
continuously or in small increments
by holding down or tapping ]
repeatedly.
Exceeding the limit speed
In the event of an emergency it is possible to exceed the limit speed by
depressing the accelerator pedal
firmly beyond the point of resistance.
The limit speed will flash in the DIC
during this period.Release the accelerator pedal and the speed limiter function is
reactivated once a speed lower than
the limit speed is obtained.
Notice
In vehicles fitted with a Speed
limiter, fully depressing the
accelerator pedal will not allow you
to exceed the set maximum vehicle
speed. Speed limiter 3 145.
Deactivation
Press §: speed limiter is deactivated
and the vehicle can be driven
normally.
The limit speed is stored and a
corresponding message appears in
the DIC.
Reactivation
Press R. The speed limiter function is
reactivated.
Pressing < will also reactivate the
speed limiter function, but at the current vehicle speed only, not the
stored speed.
Deleting the limit speed
Press U.Yellow control indicator

Speed limiter
Maximum speed limiter
In accordance with local or national
regulations, the vehicle may be
equipped with a fixed maximum
speed limiter that cannot be disabled.
If equipped, a warning label indicating the fixed maximum speed limit (55 to
80 mph) is located on the instrument
panel.
Deviations from the maximum speed
limit may occur briefly when driving
downhill, for physical reasons.
A warning buzzer may sound for
10 seconds if the vehicle briefly
exceeds the set limit.
Vehicles also equipped with cruise
control speed limiter: the maximum
speed cannot be exceeded by
depressing the accelerator pedal
firmly beyond the point of resistance.
Cruise control speed limiter 3 142.
150Driving and operating● the rear doors/tailgate are notclosed correctly
● the vehicle had a rear-end accident
● there are extreme temperature changes
Lane departure warning The lane departure warning system
uses a front camera to observe the
lane markings between which the
vehicle is driving. The system detects
lane changes and warns the driver in
the event of an unintended lane
change via visual and acoustic
signals.
Criteria for the detection of an
unintended lane change are:
● no operation of turn and lane- change signals
● no active steering
If the driver is performing these
actions, no warning will be issued.Activation
The lane departure warning system is activated by pressing ì in the roof
console; LED in the button
extinguishes to indicate that the
system is switched on.
When control indicator ì 3 88
illuminates in the instrument cluster,
the system is ready to operate. A
corresponding message also
appears in the Driver Information
Centre (DIC) 3 92.
Control indicator ì extinguishes
when the system is not ready to warn the driver.
The system is only operable at
vehicle speeds above approx.
37 mph and if lane markings are
available and detected.
If the turn and lane-change signals
are not operated when changing
lanes, i.e. an unintended lane change
Vehicle care199The instrument cluster and the
displays should only be cleaned using
a soft damp cloth. If necessary use a
weak soap solution.
Clean fabric upholstery with a
vacuum cleaner and brush. Remove
stains with an upholstery cleaner.
Clothing fabrics may not be
colourfast. This could cause visible
discolourations, especially on light- coloured upholstery. Removable
stains and discolourations should be
cleaned as soon as possible.
Clean seat belts with lukewarm water or interior cleaner.Caution
Close Velcro fasteners as open
Velcro fasteners on clothing could damage seat upholstery.
The same applies to clothing with
sharp-edged objects, like zips or
belts or studded jeans.
Plastic and rubber parts
Plastic and rubber parts can be
cleaned with the same cleaner as
used to clean the body. Use interior cleaner if necessary. Do not use any
other agent. Avoid solvents and petrol in particular. Do not use high-
pressure jet cleaners.
