Lighting135Fault in LED headlight system
When the system detects a failure in
the LED headlight system, f
illuminates and a warning is displayed in the Driver Information Centre.
Hazard warning flashers
Operated by pressing ¨.
In the event of an accident with airbag
deployment the hazard warning
flashers are activated automatically.
Turn lightslever up:right turn signallever down:left turn signal
A resistance point can be felt when
moving the lever.
Constant flashing is activated when
the lever is being moved beyond the
resistance point. It is deactivated
when the steering wheel is moved in
the opposite direction or lever is
manually moved back to its neutral
position.
Activate temporary flashing by
holding the lever just before the
resistance point. Turning lights will
flash until lever is being released.
To activate three flashes, tap the
lever briefly without passing the
resistance point.
When a trailer is connected, turn
signal flashes six times when
pressing the lever until resistance is
felt and then releasing.
Front fog lights
Operated by pressing >.

Driving and operating213Brakes
The brake system comprises two
independent brake circuits.
If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle can
still be braked using the other brake
circuit. However, braking effect is
achieved only when the brake pedal
is depressed firmly. Considerably
more force is needed for this. The
braking distance is extended. Seek the assistance of a workshop before
continuing your journey.
When the engine is not running, the
support of the brake servo unit
disappears once the brake pedal has
been depressed once or twice.
Braking effect is not reduced, but
braking requires significantly greater
force. It is especially important to bear this in mind when being towed.
Control indicator R 3 112.
Antilock brake system
Antilock brake system (ABS)
prevents the wheels from locking.ABS starts to regulate brake pressure as soon as a wheel shows a tendency to lock. The vehicle remains
steerable, even during hard braking.
ABS control is made apparent
through a pulse in the brake pedal
and the noise of the regulation
process.
For optimum braking, keep the brake
pedal fully depressed throughout the
braking process, despite the fact that
the pedal is pulsating. Do not reduce
the pressure on the pedal.
After starting off the system performs
a self-test which may be audible.
Control indicator u 3 113.
Adaptive brake light During full braking, all three brake
lights flash for the duration of ABS
control.
Fault9 Warning
If there is a fault in the ABS, the
wheels may be liable to lock due
to braking that is heavier than
normal. The advantages of ABS are no longer available. During
hard braking, the vehicle can no longer be steered and may
swerve.
Have the cause of the fault remedied
by a workshop.
Parking brake
9 Warning
Before leaving the vehicle, check
parking brake status. Control
indicator R (manual parking
brake) or m (electrical parking
brake) must illuminate constantly.

Driving and operating223Adaptive cruise control automatically
decelerates the vehicle when
approaching a slower moving vehicle.
It then adjusts the vehicle speed to
follow the vehicle ahead at the
selected following distance. The
vehicle speed increases or decreases to follow the vehicle in front, but willnot exceed the set speed. It may
apply limited braking with activated
brake lights.
The adaptive cruise control can store
and maintain speeds over approx.
50 km/h and brakes automatically to
follow a slower vehicle driving ahead
down to a minimum speed of
30 km/h.
Adaptive cruise control uses a radar
sensor to detect the vehicles ahead.
If no vehicle is detected in the driving path, the adaptive cruise control will
behave like a traditional cruise
control.
For safety reasons, the system
cannot be activated before the brake
pedal has been depressed once after
switching on ignition. Activation in first gear is not possible.
Adaptive cruise control is mainly
advised to be used on long straight
roads, e.g. highways or country roads
with steady traffic. Do not use the
system if it is not advisable to
maintain a constant speed.
Control indicator A 3 117, m 3 116.9 Warning
The complete driver attention is
always required while driving with adaptive cruise control. The driver stays fully in control of the vehicle
because the brake pedal, the
accelerator pedal and the cancel
switch have priority over any
adaptive cruise control operation.
Switching on the system
Press C to switch on adaptive cruise
control. The control indicator m
illuminates white. Additionally C
appears in the Driver Information
Centre.
Activation of the functionality by
setting the speed
Adaptive cruise control can be
activated between 50 km/h and
180 km/h.

240Driving and operatingWarning symbols
Warning symbols are indicated as
triangles 9 on the picture which
shows obstacles detected by the rear
sensors of the parking assist.
Additionally 9 appears on the top line
of the Info-Display with the warning to
check the vehicle surrounding.
Deactivation
The camera is switched off when a
certain forward speed is exceeded or
if reverse gear is not engaged for
approx. 15 seconds. Rear view
camera can be manually deactivated
in the vehicle personalisation menu in the Info-Display. Select the relevant
setting in Settings .
Vehicle personalisation 3 124.Deactivation of guiding lines and
warning symbols

Vehicle personalisation 3 124.
Fault
Fault messages are displayed with a
9 on the top line of the Info-Display.
The rear view camera may not
operate properly when:
● The surrounding area is dark.● The sun or the beam of headlights is shining directly into
the camera lens.
● Ice, snow, mud, or anything else covers the camera lens. Clean
the lens, rinse it with water, and
wipe it with a soft cloth.
● The tailgate is not closed correctly.
● The vehicle had a rear-end accident.
● There are extreme temperature changes.
Traffic sign assistant
Functionality The traffic sign assistant system
detects designated traffic signs via a
front camera and displays them in the
Driver Information Centre.
