Switching the Front Assist off tempo-
rarily
in the following situations In the following situations the Front Assist
shou
l
d be de

activated due to the system's
limitations:
● When the vehicle is to be towed.
● If the vehicle is on a test bed.
● When the radar sensor is damaged.
● If the radar sensor takes a heavy knock, for
examp
le in a rear collision.
● If it intervenes several times unnecessarily. ●
If the ra
dar sensor is covered temporarily
with some kind of accessory, such as an ad-
ditional headlight or the like.
● When the vehicle is to be loaded on a lorry,
ferry
or train.
System limitations The Front Assist has certain physical limita-
tions
inher

ent to the system. Thus, in certain
circumstances, some of the system's reac-
tions may be inopportune from the driver's
standpoint. So pay attention in order to inter-
vene if necessary.
The following conditions may cause the Front
Assist not to react or to do so too late:
● In the first few instants of driving after
swit c

hing on the ignition, due to the system’s
initial auto-calibration.
● On taking tight bends or complex paths.
● Pressing the accelerator all the way down.
● If the Front Assist is switched off or dam-
aged.
● If the ASR h

as been disconnected or the
ESC activ
ated in Sport mode manually

● If the ESC is controlling.
● If several brake lights of the vehicle or elec-
trical ly

connected trailer are damaged.

C onnectin
g and activ

ating the ACC
To connect and activate the ACC, the position
of the gearbox selector lever, the vehicle
speed and the position of the third level of
the ACC must all be taken into account.
● With a manual gearbox, the gearbox selec-
tor lev
er must be in any gear except first, and
speed must be greater than approximately 30
km/h. With an automatic gearbox, the gear-
box selector lever must be in position D or S.
● To activate the ACC, with the third lever in
position 1 press the
 butt

ve the
third lever of the ACC to position 2›››

point, the image of the
ACC on the instrument panel display will

vehicle ahead. Both speed and distance can
be changed at any time.

deactivated message appears and the
function is totally deactivated.
If you do not wish to disconnect the ACC, just
to switch it temporarily to inactive mode

signs in front of the vehicle. After checking
and ev aluatin
g the inf
ormation from the cam-
era, the navigation system and the current
vehicle data, up to three valid traffic signs
are displayed ››› Fig. 214 B in conjunction
with their corresponding additional signs.
The sign that is currently valid for the
driver is shown in the left side of the
screen For example, a maximum speed
limit of 130 km/h (100 mph)
››› Fig. 214 A.
A sign valid only in certain circum-
stances, e.g. 100 km/h (60 mph) is
shown second, together with the addi-
tional rain sign.
If the windscreen wiper is
working while you are driving, the signal
with the additional rain sign will be

that is applicable at the time.
A sign valid only with restrictions, e.g.
No overtaking at certain times, will be
displayed third ››› Fig. 214 C.
Speed warning
If the system detects that the permitted
speed is exceeded, it may warn the driver

above the maximum speed permitted.
Trailer mode
In vehicles equipped with a towing bracket
device from the factory and a trailer that is
electrically connected to the vehicle, it is pos-
sible to activate or deactivate the display of
specific traffic signs for vehicles with trailer,
such as speed limits or overtaking prohibi-
tions. Activation or deactivation is performed
on the infotainment system using the  button and the
S

 page 33.
For trailer mode, the display of speed limits
applicable to the type of trailer or to the legal
provisions can be adjusted. The speed is ad-
justed in steps of 10 km/h (5 mph) within a
range of between 60 km/h (40 mph) and
130 km/h (80 mph). If it is adjusted to a
speed greater than that which is permitted in
the country in question for driving with a
trailer, the system automatically displays the
usual speed limits, e.g. in Germany 80 km/h
(50 mph).
If the speed warning for the trailer is deacti-
vated, the system displays the speed limits
as if there were no trailer hitched. Limited operation
The traffic s

ign detection system has certain
limitations. The following cases may lead the
system to operate with limitations or not at
all:
● In the case of poor visibility, e.g. in snow,
rain, fog or int
ense mist.
● In cases of dazzling, e.g. caused by head-
on traffic or b
y the sun.
● When driving at high speeds.
● If the camera is covered or dirty.
● If the traffic signs are out of the camera's
field of
vision.
● If the traffic signs are partially or totally
cov
ered, e.g. by trees, snow, dirt or other ve-
hicles.
● In the case of traffic signs that do not fulfil
the regu
lations.
● In the case of damaged or bent traffic
signs.
● In the c

ase of variable messages on over-
head or g
antry signs (LED-based variable traf-
fic signs or other lighting units).
● If the maps on the navigation system are
not up-to-d
ate.
● In the case of adhesives affixed to vehicles

om the factory, when the trailer is
connected electrically, the Parking Aid rear

turned to position R or when the button  is
pressed.
The distance to possible obstacles at the rear
of the vehicle and at its sides will not be dis-
played on the screen and will not be indica-
ted by means of audible sound signals.
The Easy Connect system screen will only dis-
play objects detected at the front, and the ve-
hicle's trajectory will be hidden. Braking while manoeuvring function* 3 Only valid with Parking System Plus
As
soon a

s an obstacle is detected while re-
versing, the braking while manoeuvring func-
tion activates the emergency braking. De-
pending on the equipment, the braking while
manoeuvring function can also activate
emergency braking while moving forwards.
The emergency braking function is used to
minimise collisions. Vehicle speed must not
be higher than 10 km/h.
The braked manoeuvre function is active or
inactive when the parking light is lit or off, re-
spectively. If an emergency braking is activa-
ted, the function will remain inactive until the
gear is changed.

arking aid (Park Pilot)*
Des
cription Assorted assistance systems – which vary
depending on the equipment
fitt

ed in the car
– will help you when parking or manoeu-
vring.
The rear parking aid is an audible assistant
that warns of obstacles located behind the
vehicle.
There are sensors integrated in the rear
bumper. When they detect an obstacle, you
are alerted by audible warnings and visually
on the Easy Connect system.
If the Top View Camera* is installed, the rear
parking aid will issue an audible warning
about objects near the rear of the vehicle,
and the Top View Camera* image will be
available on the Easy Connect screen, giving
a real image of the objects around the car.
Make particularly sure that the sensors are
not covered by adhesives, residues, dirt and
the like, as this could affect the system's op-
eration. Cleaning instructions ››› page 287.
