Damage totheve hicle may occur in thefo l‐
lowing cases:
RThe vehicle becomes grounded, e.g. on a
high curb or an unpa vedro ad.
RThe vehicle is driven toofast over an
obs tacle, e.g. a curb, speed bump or pot‐

In situations such as this, the body, the
underbody, chassis parts, wheels or tires
could be damaged without the damage being
visible. Components damaged in this wa y
can unexpectedly fail or, in the case of an
accident, no longer withs tand thest ra in they
are designed to.
If th e underbody paneling is damaged, flam‐
mable materials such as lea ves, grass or
twigs can gather between the underbody and
th e underbody paneling. If these materials
come into conta ct withhot parts on the

Speed control cruise control
Function of cruise control
Cruise cont rol accelerates and brakes theve hi‐
cle automatically in order tomaintain a pr evi‐
ously stored speed.
If yo u accelerate toove rtake, forex ample, the
st ored speed is not dele ted. If youre mo veyour
fo ot from the accelerator pedal af terove rtaking,
cruise control will resume speed regulation back
to thestored speed.
Yo u can operate cruise cont rol with the cruise
control le ver.
If yo ufa ilto adapt your driving style, cruise con‐
trol can neither reduce therisk of an accident
nor override the la wsof ph ysics. It cannot take
into account road, weather or traf fic conditions.
Cruise control is only an aid. You are responsible fo
rth e dis tance totheve hicle in front, forve hi‐
cle speed, for braking in good time and forst ay ‐
ing in lane.
Sy stem limitations
Cruise control may be unable tomaintain the
st ored speed on uphill gradients. The stored
speed is resumed when the gradient evens out.
Change into a lo werge ar in good time on long
and steep downhill gradients. Take particular
no te ofthis when driving a laden vehicle. By
doing so, youwill make use of the braking ef fect
of the engine. This relie vesth e load on the brake
sy stem and pr events the brakes from overheat‐
ing and
wearin
g tooqu ickl y.
Do not use cruise control in thefo llowing situa‐
tions:
RIn traf fic situations whi chrequ ire frequent
ch anges of speed, e.g. in heavy traf fic, on
winding roads
ROn slippery roads. Accelerating can cause
th e drive wheels tolose traction and the
ve hicle could then skid

(80 km/h) in right-hand traf fic and overtaking on
th e left in left-hand tra ffic on free ways and high-
speed major roads.
If yo u act ivate the turn signal indicator tochange
lanes, theve hicle will accelerate more briskly to
th e set speed under thefo llowing conditions:
RDis tance Pilot DISTRONIC is acti vated.
RThe driving speed is higher than 45 mph
(70 km/h).
RThe driven speed drops below thestored
speed.
RThe traf fic situation in theov ertak ing lane
permits a safe lane change.
Ve hicles with Driving Assistance Package

DI ST RO NIC also has the Speed Limit Pilot func‐
tion. This function can be confi gured inthe mul‐
timedia sy stem. If a change in the speed limit is
de tected and Dis tance Pilot DISTRONIC is acti va‐

speed. The driven speed is adap

RSteering Pilot can be overridden at any time

Sy stem limitations of Steering Pilot
St eering Pilot has a limited steering torque for
lateral guidance. In some cases, thesteering
inter vention is not suff icienttokeep theve hicle
in the lane.
If de tection of lane markings and vehicles ahead
is impaired, Steering Pilot switches topassive
mode. The sy stem pr ovides no support in this case. During
the transition from the active to
