The automatic distance control (hereinafter referred to as ACC) maintains the
set speed or the distance to the vehicle ahead without the accelerator or
brake pedal being pressed.
The front of the vehicle and the distance to the vehicle ahead is monitored by
a radar sensor » page 199.
The state in which the ACC maintains the speed or the proximity is described
as control from here on.
WARNING■
The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 199, in section Introduction .■
The driver must always be ready to take over the operation of the accel-
erator and brake pedal.
■
The ACC does not react when approaching a stationary obstacle, such as
traffic jams, vehicle breakdowns or vehicles waiting at a traffic light.
■
The ACC does not respond to crossing or oncoming objects.
■
If the ACC does not decelerate fast enough, immediately apply the vehi-
cle's foot brake.
WARNINGFor safety reasons, do not use the ACC under the following conditions.■When driving in turning lanes, motorway exits or construction sites, to
avoid an unwanted acceleration to the stored speed.■
When visibility is poor, (e.g. fog, heavy rain, thick snowfall).
■
When road conditions are poor (e.g. ice, slippery road, gravel, dirt road).
■
Driving into “sharp” corners or in steep gradients / on steep inclines.
■
When driving through places where metal objects (such as metal build-
ings, railroad tracks, etc.) can be found.
■
When driving through very divided and enclosed spaces (such as large-ca-
pacity garages, car ferries, tunnels and the like.).
Note
■ The ACC is designed primarily for use on motorways.■The ACC reduces the speed by automatically releasing the accelerator or by
means of a braking procedure as appropriate. If the brakes are used for an au-
tomatic speed reduction at any moments, then the brake light illuminates.■
In case of failure of more than one brake light on the vehicle or on the con-
nected trailer, the ACC becomes unavailable.
■
The control automatically cancels the engagement of the brake supportive
assistance systems (e.g. ESC) or when the maximum permitted engine speed is
exceeded.

NoteControl is also stopped when the clutch pedal is held down for longer than 30
s or the TCS is deactivated.
Set/change desired speed
Read and observe
on page 214 first.
The desired speed can be set or changed using the control lever » Fig. 257 on
page 216 .
Setting/changing the speed by increments of 10 km/h at a time ( ) - re-
quirements
ACC is enabled.
Increasing/reducing the speed by increments of 1 km/h at a time ( /
 -
requirements
ACC is enabled.
Vehicle control takes place.
Changing the speed by adopting the current speed ( ) - requirements
ACC is enabled.
The vehicle is moving at a speed other than that which is stored.
Note
■
If during control the speed is increased by pressing the accelerator, control is
temporarily stopped. Upon releasing the accelerator, control is automatically
resumed.■
If during control the speed is reduced by applying the brake, control is stop-
ped. Control needs to be restarted in order to resume » page 216.
■
If the vehicle is controlled by a lower speed than the stored speed, then 
the current speed is stored by pressing the button again 
and the speed is
reduced in increments of 1 km/h.
Set the clearance level
Read and observe
on page 214 first.
The proximity to the vehicle ahead can be set with the lever » Fig. 257 on
page 216 or in Infotainment » page 214, Settings in Infotainment .
Setting by means of the lever›Set the switch  Set in the spring-tensioned position  or  » Fig. 257 on
page 216 .
The display of the instrument cluster shows line 2
» Fig. 255 on page 215 ,
which indicates the proximity.
›
Using the switch 
on the lever, adjust the line

to the desired dis-
tance.
Note
■ If the proximity is changed in infotainment, the change will only come into
effect after a subsequent activation of the ACC.■
The higher the speed, the greater the proximity to the vehicle ahead.
Special driving conditions

Cornering / narrow vehicles or vehicles travelling side by side 
217Assist systems

Fig. 259
Lane changes of other vehicles / stationary vehicles
Read and observe
on page 214 first.
The following (and similar) situations require special attention and possibly the
intervention of the driver (braking, accelerating etc.).
When cornering
When driving into or driving out of long corners, it could be that a vehicle is
travelling in the adjacent lane and is scanned by the radar » Fig. 258 -
 . The
host vehicle is then controlled according to this vehicle.
Narrow vehicles or vehicles travelling side by side
A narrow or offset vehicle driving can only be recognized by the ACC if this is
located in the scanning range of the radar » Fig. 258 -
 .
Other vehicles changing lanes
Vehicles that change onto the lane with a small distance » Fig. 259 -
 may not
be detected by ACC in good time.
Stationary vehicles
The ACC does not detect stationary objects! When a vehicle detected by the
ACC turns or sheers off and there is a stationary vehicle in front of this vehi-
cle, » Fig. 259 -
 the ACC does not respond to the stationary vehicle.
Vehicles with special load or special body parts
Other vehicles with a load or with body parts protruding from the sides, back
or top of the vehicle contour may not be detected by the ACC.
Overtaking and towing
Read and observe
on page 214 first.
When overtaking
When your vehicle is being controlled at a speed that is lower than the set
speed and the turn signal is operated, ACC assesses this situation as meaning
that the driver wishes to overtake. The ACC automatically accelerates the vehi-
cle, thereby reducing the proximity to a vehicle ahead.
If your vehicle changes to the overtaking lane and no vehicle is detected
ahead, ACC accelerates until the set speed is reached and then keeps it con-
stant.
Acceleration can be cancelled at any time by touch on the brake pedal or
pressing the button  on the lever
» Fig. 257 on page 216 .
Towing a trailer
When towing, or if another accessory is connected to the trailer socket, ACC
control is set with a lower rate. The manner of driving should therefore be
adapted to this limitation.
Malfunctions
Read and observe
on page 214 first.
If, for some unknown reason, ACC is not available, the warning light  appears
in the display of the instrument cluster and an appropriate message is shown.
Sensor covered / dirty
If the sensor is dirty or covered, a message indicating that there is no sensor
view appears. Clean the sensor cover or remove the obstacles » Fig. 240 on
page 199 .
ACC not available
If the ACC is currently unavailable, a message concerning the unavailability ap-
pears. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and then start it again. If ACC
continues to be unavailable, seek the assistance of a specialist garage.
ACC fault
With an ACC fault, an error message appears. Seek help from a specialist ga-
rage.
