Adaptive Cruise Control consists of:
• A cruise control system to maintain a set speed
• A system to maintain a set distance to thevehicle ahead, which is expressed as a timeinterval. For example, you can choose toremain approximately 2 seconds behind thevehicle ahead. The actual distance required

WARNING
The vehicle may accelerate quickly after has been pressed if its current speed is con- siderably lower than the set speed.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
ACC is temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode:• if the brakes are applied
• if the gear selector is moved to
N
• if the driver drives faster than the set speed for more than
1 minute.
In this happens, the driver will have to regulate
the vehicle's speed.
NOTE
If the accelerator pedal is only depressed for a short time, such as when passing anothervehicle, ACC is deactivated temporarily and isreactivated when the pedal is released.
Automatic standby modeACC is linked to other systems such as the sta- bility system. If this system is not functioningproperly, ACC will switch off automatically. In the event of automatic deactivation, an audible signal will sound and the message
Cruise control Cancelled
is shown in the instrument
panel. The driver must then intervene and adapt the vehicle's speed to the surrounding traffic andregulate the distance to the vehicle ahead. An automatic switch to standby mode may be caused if:
• engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
• The driver's door is opened
• The driver unbuckles his/her seat belt
• the vehicle's speed goes below 18 mph(30 km/h)
• the wheels lose traction
• brake temperature is high
• the radar sensor is obstructed by, for exam-ple, wet snow or rain.
Resuming the set speedIf ACC is in standby mode, it can be reactivated by pressing the
button on the steering wheel
keypad. The vehicle will return to the most recently set speed.
WARNING
The vehicle may accelerate quickly after has been pressed if its current speed is con- siderably lower than the set speed.
Turning ACC off completely
Controls and display
Resume previous settings.
Off/On/Standby mode
• From standby mode, press (2)
once.
• From active mode, press (2)
twice.
The set speed and time interval are then cleared from the system's memory and cannot be resumed by pressing (1)
.

WARNING
•In certain situations, the system cannot provide warnings or warnings may bedelayed if traffic conditions or other exter-nal factors make it impossible for theradar sensor or camera to detect apedestrian, a cyclist or a vehicle ahead.
• Warnings may not be provided if the dis-tance to the vehicle ahead is short, or ifmovements of the steering wheel/brakepedal are great, such as during activedriving.
• The sensor system has a limited range forpedestrians/cyclists and provides warn-ings and braking effect most effectively atspeeds up to 30 mph (50 km/h). For sta-tionary or slow-moving vehicles, the sys-tem functions best if your vehicle

Lane Keeping Aid (LKA) – operation
LKA is active at speeds above 40 mph (65 km/h) on highways or other major roads with clearlymarked side/lane marker and center lines. Onnarrow roads where the distance between side/lane marker lines is less than approximately8.5 feet ( 2.6 meters), LKA will be temporarilydeactivated.
LKA monitors and follows the marker lines (the red lines in the illustration)
•White
side marker lines: the function is
active and "sees" one or both of the road's side marker lines.
• Gray
side marker lines: the function is active
but cannot "see" one or both of the road'sside marker lines.
LKA intervening on the right side (the red line)
When LKA is working actively, this is indicated by:
• Red
side marker line: the line being crossed.
On/Off
LKA can be switched on or off by pressing the button on the center console. A light in the but-ton illuminates when the function is on. Depending on the number of optional featuresinstalled in the vehicle, there may not be spacefor the On/Off button on the center console. Ifthis is the case, LKA can be switched on or off in the
MY CAR menu system.
The following LKA-related settings can also be made in MY CAR , under

Assistance mode:
•

steering wheel On or Off.
•

Steering assist
LKA attempts to keep the vehicle within the lane's side marker lines.
LKA provides steering assistance
If the vehicle approaches one of the lane's side marker lines and the turn signals are not
being used , LKA will attempt to steer the vehicle
back into the lane.
Vibration warnings
LKA provides vibrations in the steering wheel and steer- ing assistance 11
.
If the vehicle crosses a marker line, LKA provides a warning in the form of vibrations in the steeringwheel. This occurs even if the steering assistfunction has been deactivated.
Dynamic cornering
LKA does not intervene in sharp left curves
In certain cases, LKA allows the vehicle to cross marker lines without providing a vibration warningor steering assistance, for example, duringdynamic cornering as shown in the illustrationwhere the driver's view of the road and trafficconditions make this possible.

Park Assist Pilot (PAP)* –
introduction
The Park Assist Pilot provides assistance when parallel parking by measuring the parking spaceand turning the steering wheel.
Introduction
The off/on button shown is located on the center con- sole
Park Assist Pilot (PAP) is a semi-automatic sys- tem that provides assistance when parallel park-ing by:
• Finding a parking space and determining if itis big enough for the vehicle
• Helping to steer the vehicle into the parkingspace
Information about the actions required of thedriver is provided in the instrument panel in theform of symbols, images and text.
NOTE
If a trailer hitch is configured in the vehicle's electrical system, PAP will take the trailerhitch into consideration when determining thenecessary size of a parking space.
WARNING
• PAP does not function in all situations and is only intended to assist the driverwhen parallel parking.
• As the driver, you have full responsibilityfor parking the vehicle in a safe manner.

Park Assist Pilot (PAP)
* – function
PAP's function is to measure the parking space and to turn the steering wheel during the parallelparking procedure. The driver is responsible forfollowing the instructions shown in the instru- ment panel and for: shifting between R (Reverse)
and D (Drive) when required, regulating the vehi-
cle's speed, applying the brakes and stopping the vehicle. PAP can be activated in the following conditions:
• When the stability or ABS systems are not working actively
• The vehicle is not towing a trailer
• The vehicle's speed is below 30 mph(50 km/h)
How PAP works
PAP helps park the vehicle by:

2: Backing into the parking space
When the vehicle is backing up, PAP will steer it into the parking space.
1. Check that the area behind the vehicle is
clear and put the gear selector in R.
2. Back up slowly without moving the steering wheel. The vehicle's speed must be below approximately 4 mph 7 km/h.
3. Keep an eye on the instrument panel and be prepared to stop the vehicle when you areinstructed by PAP to do so.
NOTE
•Release the wheel while PAP is steering the vehicle.
• The steering wheel must be able to turnfreely.
• For PAP to function optimally, wait untilthe steering wheel is no longer turningbefore beginning the next phase of theparking procedure.
3: Adjusting the vehicle's position
After the vehicle has backed into the parking space, its position in the space has to beadjusted by driving slightly forward and backingup. 1.
Put the gear selector in D, wait until the
steering wheel has turned and drive forwardslowly.
2. Stop the vehicle when you are instructed by PAP to do so.
3. Put the gear selector in R, back up slowly
and stop when you are instructed by PAP todo so.
When the parking procedure is finished (this willbe indicated by a text message and a graphicimage in the instrument panel) , PAP switches offautomatically. If necessary, the driver may need tomake minor adjustments to ensure that the vehi-cle is parked correctly.
