300 front starts moving again then the adaptive cruise control is set in standby mode with automaticbraking.
–The Adaptive Cruise Control is reactivated in one of the following ways:
• Press the steering wheel button
.
• Depress the accelerator pedal.
> The Adaptive Cruise Control resumes fol- lowing the vehicle ahead if it starts mov- ing forward within 6 seconds.
NOTE
ACC can keep the car stationary for a maxi- mum of 5 minutes. After this the parkingbrake is applied and adaptive cruise control isdisengaged. The parking brake must be released before the adaptive cruise control can be reactivated.
Cessation of automatic braking
In some situations, automatic braking ceases on reaching 0 km/h and Adaptive Cruise Control isset in standby mode. This means that the brakesare released and the car may start to roll - thedriver must therefore intervene and brake the carhimself/herself to keep it stationary. This may take place in the following situations:
• the driver puts his/her foot on the brakepedal
• the parking brake is applied
• the gear selector is moved to
P, N , or R posi-
tion
• the driver sets the adaptive cruise control inthe standby mode.
Automatic activation of parking brakeIn certain situations the parking brake is appliedto keep the car stationary. This takes place if the adaptive cruise control is holding the car stationary with the foot brake and: •the driver opens the door or takes off his/her seatbelt
• ACC has kept the car stationary for morethan approx. 5 minutes
• the brakes have overheated
• the engine is switched off.

Limitations of the adaptive cruise control *
The (Adaptive Cruise Control - ACC) may have limitations in certain situations.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadBear in mind that the adaptive cruise control is primarily intended for use when driving on levelroad surfaces. The function may have difficulty inkeeping the correct distance from the vehicleahead when driving on steep downhill slopes - inwhich case, be extra attentive and ready to brake.Do not use the adaptive cruise control with aheavy load or with a trailer connected to the car.
Miscellaneous
• Drive mode Off Road cannot be selected
when the adaptive cruise control is activated.
NOTE
The function uses the car's radar unit, which has some general limitations, see the "Limita-tions for radar unit" section.

Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist is dependent on other systems, e.g. stability control/anti-skid ESC. If any of theseother systems stops working, Pilot Assist isswitched off automatically. In the event of automatic deactivation a signal will sound and a message is shown in the driver dis-play. The driver must then intervene and adaptthe speed and distance to the vehicle ahead. Automatic deactivation may occur if:
• the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and Pilot Assist is uncertain whether the vehicle aheadis a stationary vehicle or an object, such as aspeed bump.
• the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and thevehicle ahead turns off so that Pilot Assist nolonger has a vehicle to follow.
• speed is reduced to below 30 km/h(20 mph) - only applies to cars with manualgearbox.
• the driver's hands are not on the steeringwheel
• the driver opens the door
• the driver takes off the seatbelt
• engine speed is too low/high
• wheels lose traction
• brake temperature is high
• the parking brake is applied •
the camera and radar unit is covered by e.g.snow or heavy rainfall (camera lens/radiowaves are blocked).
Reactivating Pilot Assist from the
standby mode
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
–Press the steering wheel button (1).
> The speed is then set to the most recently stored speed.
NOTE
A marked speed increase may occur once the speed has been resumed by pressing steer- ing wheel button

Change of target and automatic braking with Pilot Assist *
In combination with automatic gearbox, Pilot Assist has functionality for change of target and braking at certain speeds.
Change of target
If the target vehicle in front suddenly turns then there may be stationary traffic in front.
When Pilot Assist is following another vehicle at speeds below 30 km/h (20 mph) and changes
target from a moving to a stationary vehicle, Pilot Assist will slow down for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING
When Pilot Assist is following another vehicle at speeds in excess of approx. 30 km/h
(20 mph) and the target is changed from a moving vehicle to a stationary vehicle, PilotAssist will ignore the stationary vehicle andinstead select the stored speed.
• The driver must then intervene him/ herself and brake.
Automatic standby mode with change of target
Pilot Assist is disengaged and set in standby mode: •when the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and Pilot Assist is uncertain whether the tar-get object is a stationary vehicle or someother object, e.g. a speed bump.
• when the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph)and the vehicle in front turns off so the PilotAssist no longer has a vehicle to follow.
Automatic brakingFor shorter stops in connection with inching for-ward in slow traffic or at traffic lights, driving isautomatically resumed if the stops do not exceedabout 3 seconds - if it takes longer before thecar in front starts moving again then the PilotAssist is set in standby mode with automaticbraking.
–Pilot Assist is reactivated in the following way:
• Press the steering wheel button
.
• Depress the accelerator pedal.
> Pilot Assist resumes following the vehicle ahead if it starts moving forward within 6 seconds.
NOTE
Pilot Assist can hold the car stationary for a maximum of 5 minutes - then the parkingbrake is applied and the function is disen-gaged. Before Pilot Assist can be reactivated, the parking brake must be released.

Cessation of automatic braking
In some situations, automatic braking ceases on coming to a standstill and Pilot Assist is set instandby mode. This means that the brakes arereleased and the car may start to roll - the drivermust therefore intervene and brake the car him-self/herself to keep it stationary. This may take place in the following situations:
• the driver puts his/her foot on the brake pedal
• the parking brake is applied
• the gear selector is moved to
P, N , or R posi-
tion
• the driver sets Pilot Assist in the standbymode.
Automatic activation of parking brakeIn certain situations the parking brake is appliedto keep the car stationary. This takes place if Pilot Assist is holding the car stationary with the foot brake and: •
the driver opens the door or takes off his/her seatbelt
• Pilot Assist has kept the car stationary formore than approx. 5 minutes
• the brakes have overheated
• the engine is switched off.

Low speed
City Safety is not activated at very low speeds - below 4 km/h (3 mph) - and the system there-fore does not intervene in situations where yourcar is approaching a vehicle ahead very slowly,e.g. when parking.
Active driver
Driver commands are always prioritised, which is why City Safety does not intervene or postponewarning/intervention in situations where thedriver is steering and accelerating in a decisivemanner, even if a collision is unavoidable. Active and aware driving behaviour can therefore delay a collision warning and intervention in orderto minimise unnecessary warnings.
Miscellaneous
WARNING
Warnings and brake interventions could be implemented late or not at all if a traffic situa-tion or external influences mean that the cam-era and radar unit cannot detect pedestrians,cyclists, large animals or vehicles correctly. For vehicles to be detected at night, their headlamps and rear lamp cluster must beswitched on and shining clearly. The camera and radar unit has a limited range for pedestrians and cyclists. The system canprovide effective warnings and brake interven-tions as long as the relative speed is below50 km/h (30 mph). For stationary or slow-moving vehicles, warnings and brake interven-tions are effective at vehicle speeds up to70 km/h (43 mph). Speed reduction for largeanimals is less than 15 km/h (9 mph) andcan be achieved at vehicle speeds above70 km/h (43 mph). The warning and brakeintervention for large animals is less effectiveat lower speeds. Warnings for stationary or slow-moving vehi- cles and large animals could be disengageddue to darkness or poor visibility. Warnings and brake interventions for pedes- trians and cyclists are deactivated at vehiclespeeds exceeding 70 km/h (43 mph). Do not place, stick or mount anything on the outside or inside of the windscreen in front ofor around the camera and radar unit — thiscan interfere with camera-dependent func-tions.
Objects, snow, ice or dirt in the area of the camera sensor may reduce its function, fullydeactivate it or give incorrect functionresponse.
NOTE
The function uses the car's camera unit, which has some general limitations, see the"Limitations for camera unit" section.

Along the sides
Parking assistance side sensors are activated automatically when the engine is started. Theyare active at speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph). The measuring range starts approx. 30 cm from the sides. The acoustic signal for obstacles onthe sides comes from the side loudspeakers.
Forwards
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
The front parking assistance sensors are acti- vated automatically when the engine is started.The front sensors are active at speedsbelow 10 km/h (6 mph). The measuring range starts approx. 0.8 metres in front of the car.
NOTE
Parking assistance is deactivated when the parking brake is applied or P mode is
selected in a car with an automatic gearbox.
IMPORTANT
When auxiliary lamps are fitted: Remember that these must not obscure the sensors - theauxiliary lamps may then be perceived as anobstacle.

Limitations of Parking assistance *
The Parking assistance function may have limita- tions in certain situations.
NOTE
Since a towbar is configured with the car's electrical system, towbar protrusion isincluded when the function measures the dis-tance to an object behind the car.
IMPORTANT
Objects e.g. chains, thin glossy poles or low barriers may be in the "signal shadow" andare then temporarily not detected by the sen-sors - the pulsating tone may then unexpect-edly stop instead of changing over to theexpected constant tone. The sensors cannot detect high objects, such as projecting loading docks.
• In such situations, pay extra attention andmanoeuvre/reposition the car particularlyslowly or stop the current parkingmanoeuvre - there may be a high risk ofdamage to vehicles or other objects sinceinformation from the sensors is notalways reliable in such situations.
IMPORTANT
In certain conditions the parking assistance system may produce incorrect warning sig-nals that are caused by external soundsources that emit the same ultrasonic fre-quencies that the system works with. Examples of such sources include horns, wet tyres on asphalt, pneumatic brakes andexhaust noises from motorcycles, etc.
Maintenance
Location of the parking sensors 24
.
For parking assistance to work optimally, the parking assistance sensors must be cleaned reg-ularly with water and car shampoo.

The car's left-hand camera is out of order.
Black camera sector
A black camera sector is also shown in the fol- lowing instances, but then without the symbol for
defective camera:
• open door
• open tailgate
• folded-in door mirror.
Light conditionsThe camera image is adjusted automatically according to prevailing light conditions. Becauseof this, the image may vary slightly in brightnessand quality. Poor light conditions can result inreduced image quality.
MaintenanceClean camera lenses regularly with lukewarmwater and car shampoo - be careful not toscratch the lenses.
NOTE
Keep the camera lens clear of dirt, snow and ice to ensure optimum function. This is partic-ularly important in poor light.

Park Assist Pilot *
Active parking assistance (Park Assist Pilot - PAP) helps the driver to park in or leave a park-ing space.
PAP checks first if a space is sufficiently big and thereafter helps the driver to turn the steeringwheel and manoeuvre the car into the space. The centre display indicates with symbols, graph- ics and text the various operations to be carriedout and when to do so.
NOTE
The PAP function measures the space and steers the car - the driver's task is to:
• keep a close watch around the car
• follow the instructions in the centre dis-play
• change gear (reverse/forward)
• control and maintain a safe speed
• brake and stop.
