Activating ACC (putting it in active mode and setting a speed)
Before ACC can be put in active mode:
• The driver's seat belt must be buckled and the driver's door must be closed.
• There must be a vehicle ahead (a target vehi-cle) within a reasonable distance or yourvehicle's current speed must be at least9 mph (15 km/h).
–With the symbol displayed (ACC is in
standby mode), press the
button (1) on
the left-side steering wheel keypad.
> This puts ACC in active mode and sets the vehicle's current speed, which is indi- cated by digits in the center of the speed-ometer. The
time interval to the vehi-
cle ahead will only be shownwhen two vehicles are dis-played.
A speed interval will also be indicated:
• The higher speed is the one set in ACC
• The lower one is the speed of the vehicle ahead (the target vehicle).

WARNING
When ACC is in standby mode, the driver has to control the vehicle's speed and distance toa vehicle ahead. When ACC is in standby mode, the driver will be alerted if the distance to the vehicle aheadis too short by the Distance Alert function.See the article "Distance Alert" for additionalinformation.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
ACC is temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode if:
• the brakes are applied
• The gear selector is moved to
N
• the vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute.
In these cases, the driver will have to regulate thevehicle's speed. A temporary increase in speed, such as when passing another vehicle, does not affect the ACCset speed. The vehicle will return to the set speedwhen the accelerator pedal is released.
Automatic standby mode
ACC interacts with other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control. If any of these othersystems are not functioning properly, ACC willturn off automatically.
WARNING
If this happens, the driver will be alerted by an audible signal and a message in the instru-ment panel. The driver will have to adapt thevehicle's speed, apply the brakes when nec-essary and keep a safe distance to the vehicleahead.
ACC switches automatically to standby mode if: • the vehicle's speed goes below approx. 3 mph (5 km/h) and ACC cannot determineif the vehicle ahead is stationary or is anobject such as a speed bump, etc
• the vehicle's speed goes below approx.3 mph (5 km/h) and the vehicle aheadchanges lanes or turns so that ACC nolonger has a target vehicle to follow
• the driver opens the door
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt
• the engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
• the wheels lose traction
• the brake temperature is too high
• the parking brake is applied
• the stability system's
ESC Sport Mode is
activated
• the
Off Road drive mode is selected
• The radar sensor is covered by e.g., wet snow or if heavy rain interferes with radar waves
Reactivating ACC from standby mode
Generic illustration
To reactivate ACC after it has temporarily been put in standby mode:
–Press the button (1).
> The vehicle will then return to the most
recently set speed .

WARNING
At speeds above 20 mph (30 km/h), if ACC
changes targets from a moving vehicle to a stationary one, the system will not react to the
stationary vehicle and will accelerate to the previously set speed. The driver must actively apply the brakes to slow/stop the vehicle.
Automatic standby mode when changing targets
ACC disengages and goes into standby mode if:
• your vehicle's speed goes below approx. 3 mph (5 km/h) and ACC cannot determineif the target object is a stationary vehicle orsome other type of object such as a speedbump, etc
• the vehicle's speed goes below approx.3 mph (5 km/h) and the vehicle aheadchanges lanes or turns so that ACC nolonger has a target vehicle to follow.
Auto-hold brake functionIn slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stop-ped at a traffic light, driving will resume automati-cally if the vehicle is not stopped for more thanapprox. 3 seconds. If it takes more than3 seconds for the vehicle ahead to begin movingagain, ACC will go into standby mode and theauto-hold brake function will activate.
–The driver will then have to reactivate ACC in one of the following ways:
• Press the
button on the left-side
steering wheel keypad.
• Press the accelerator pedal.
> ACC will resume following the vehicle ahead (target vehicle) if it begins to move within approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE
ACC can keep the vehicle at a standstill for up to 5 minutes, after which the parking brakewill be set and ACC will go into standbymode. The parking brake has to be released before ACC can be reactivated.
Deactivation of the auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, auto-hold will be deactivated when the vehicle is at a standstill and ACC will gointo standby mode. This means that the brakes will be released and the vehicle can begin to roll. The driver must actively apply the brakes to keep the vehicle at a standstill. This can occur in the following situations: • the driver presses the brake pedal
• the parking brake is set •
the gear selector is moved to the
P, N or R
positions
• the driver puts ACC in standby mode.
Automatically setting the parking brakeIn certain situations, the parking brake is set automatically to help keep the vehicle at a stand-still. This occurs if ACC keeps the vehicle at a stand- still with the brakes and:
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt or opensthe door
• ACC has kept the vehicle at a standstill formore than approx. 5 minutes
• the brakes overheat
• the engine is turned off.

Prerequisites
The prerequisites for activating Pilot Assist are:• The driver's seat belt must be buckled and the driver's door must be closed.
• There must be a vehicle ahead (a target vehi-cle) within a reasonable distance or yourvehicle's current speed must be at least9 mph (15 km/h).
With ACC in standby mode: 1. Tap
▶ (6).
> The symbol
will change to Pilot
Assist in standby mode (8).
2. Press the
button (2) on the left-side
steering wheel keypad.
> Pilot Assist will go into active mode and the current speed will be stored and dis- played in the center of the speedometer. or
If Adaptive Cruise Control has been started:
–Tap ▶ (6).
> Pilot Assist will start.
Pilot Assist's steering assis- tance is only active when thesteering wheel symbol (2)changes from GRAY toGREEN.
And Pilot Assist will only regulate the time inter- val to the vehicle ahead when a vehicle symbol(1) is displayed above the steering wheel. At the same time, a speedinterval will be marked. The higher speed is the one stored by the driver and thelower one is the speed of thevehicle ahead (target vehicle).WARNING
Pilot Assist is not a collision avoidance sys- tem. The driver is always responsible forsteering or applying the brakes if the systemdoes not detect another vehicle. Do not use Pilot Assist in demanding driving conditions such as city driving or other heavytraffic situations, in slippery conditions, whenthere is a great deal of water or slush on theroad, during heavy rain or snow, in poor visibil-ity, on winding roads or on highway on- or off-ramps. In certain situations, it may be difficult for Pilot Assist to assist the driver correctly or to deac-tivate automatically. In such cases, it is advisa-ble not to use Pilot Assist. Examples of suchsituations may be:
• the lane's side market lines are missing, badly faded or cross each other.
• the division of lanes is not clear, e.g.,when a line divides or merges withanother, at exits or if there are many roadsigns/markers.
• there are edges or other lines on or nearthe lane, e.g., curbs, cracks, repairedareas, sharp shadows, etc.
• the lane is narrow or winding.

In standby mode, the driver will have to regulate the vehicle's speed and the distance to the vehi-cle ahead. When Pilot Assist is in standby mode and your vehicle comes too close to another vehicle, thedriver will be alerted by the Distance Alert func-tion.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
Pilot Assist is temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode if:
• the brakes are applied
• The gear selector is moved to
N
• the turn signals are used for more than1 minute
• the vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute.
A temporary increase in speed, such as whenpassing another vehicle, does not affect the PilotAssist set speed. The vehicle will return to the setspeed when the accelerator pedal is released. When the turn signals are used, Pilot Assist's steering function will be temporarily deactivated.When this is no longer the case, the steeringfunction will reactivate if the traffic lane's sidemarker lines can still be detected.
Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist interacts with other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control. If any of these other systems are not functioning properly, Pilot Assistwill automatically be deactivated.
WARNING
If this happens, the driver will be alerted by an audible signal and a message in the instru-ment panel. The driver will have to adapt thevehicle's speed, apply the brakes when nec-essary and keep a safe distance to the vehicleahead.

City Safety warning level settings
City Safety is always activated but the function's warning distance can be adjusted.
NOTE
City Safety cannot be turned off and activates automatically each time the engine is started.
Setting a warning level (distance)
The distance set for warnings determines the system's responsiveness and sets the distance atwhich visual, audible and tangible (haptic) warn-ings will be triggered. To do so:1. Tap
Settings in the center display's Top
view.
2. Tap
My CarIntelliSafeCity Safety
Warning.
3. Choose among
Earlier, Normal or Later.
Begin by choosing
Earlier. If too many warnings
are given, change to Normal.
If the driver feels that warnings are given too often, the warning level can be lowered. Thismeans that warnings will be provided later, result-ing in fewer warnings being given. The setting
Later should only used in exceptional
circumstances, e.g., for a more dynamic driving style.
WARNING
• No automatic system can be guaranteed to function 100% correctly in all situa-tions. For that reason, never test CitySafety by driving toward a person orobject. This could result in serious injuryor death.
• Even if the setting
Earlier has been
selected, warnings may be perceived as being given late, e.g., if the difference inspeed is great or if the vehicle aheadbrakes suddenly.
• City Safety can provide a warning for apotential collision but it can never shortenthe driver's reaction time.
• To help make City Safety as effective as possible, always using the setting
Earlieris recommended.
NOTE
•
Due to local traffic regulations in certain markets, Rear Collision Warning (RCW) will
not activate the rear turn signals.
That part of the function will be deacti- vated.
• The use of the rear turn signals will alsobe deactivated if the City Safety warning level is set at
Later. See also the section

Detecting obstructions with City Safety
City Safety can detect vehicles, cyclists, large animals and pedestrians.
VehiclesCity Safety detects most types of vehicles that are either stationary, moving in the same direc-tion as your vehicle or those described in the arti-cle "City Safety in crossing traffic." In order for City Safety to detect a vehicle in darkness, its headlights and taillights must be onand clearly visible.
Cyclists
Optimal example of what the system considers to be a cyclist: clear body/bike contours
To help function optimally, City Safety's function for cyclist detection needs clear informationabout the bike itself and the rider's head, arms, shoulders, legs, the upper and lower parts of thebody and a cyclist's normal pattern of movement.
• If major parts of the cyclist's body are notvisible to the camera, the system cannotdetect the cyclist.
• The cyclist must be an adult riding a bikeintended for an adult.
WARNING
City Safety is designed to be a supplementary driving aid and cannot detect all cyclists in allsituations, such as:
• a partially obscured cyclist.
• a cyclist whose clothing prevents a clear view of the person's body contours.
• a cyclist transporting a large object.
The driver is always responsible for operating the vehicle in a safe manner.
