Setting Adaptive Cruise Controltime intervals Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 43
) can be set to
various time intervals to the vehicle ahead.
Different time intervals to the vehicle ahead can be selectedand are shown in the instru-ment panel as 1–5 horizontalbars. The more bars, the longerthe time interval. One bar rep-resents an interval of
approx. 1 second to the vehicle ahead. 5 barsrepresents approx. 3 seconds. The same symbol appears when the Distance Alert function is activated.
NOTE
When the symbol in the instrument panel shows two vehicles, ACC is following the vehi-cle ahead at a preset time interval. When only one vehicle is shown, there is no vehicle ahead within a reasonable distance.
Controls for setting a time interval 44
.
Reduce the time interval
Increase the time interval
Distance indicator
–Press the (1) or (2) button to decrease or increase the time interval.
> The distance indicator (3) shows the cur-
rent time interval.
In order to help your vehicle follow the vehicle ahead as smoothly and comfortably as possible,Adaptive Cruise Control allows the time intervalto vary noticeably in certain situations. At lowspeeds, when the distance to the vehicle aheadis short, Adaptive Cruise Control increases thetime interval slightly.
NOTE
• The greater the vehicles' speed, the greater the distance between them for aset time interval.
• Only use the time intervals permitted bylocal traffic regulations.
• If the Adaptive Cruise Control does notseem to respond with a speed increasewhen activated, it may be because thetime interval to the vehicle ahead isshorter than the set time interval.
WARNING
•Only use a time interval suitable for the current traffic conditions.
• The driver should be aware that shorttime intervals give them limited time toreact and act to any unforeseen trafficsituation.
Setting how ACC should maintain distance
* to the vehicle ahead
A number of different settings can be made for how Adaptive Cruise Control should maintain atime interval to the vehicle ahead. Settings are made using the DRIVE MODE controls.

Select one of the following:
•
Eco - ACC will focus on providing optimal
fuel economy, which will increase the time interval to the vehicle ahead.
•
Comfort - ACC will focus on following the
set time interval to the vehicle ahead as smoothly as possible.
•
Dynamic - ACC will focus on following the
set time interval to the vehicle ahead more exactly, which could mean faster accelerationand heavier braking.
For more information, see "Drive modes". Additional information is provided in the sections "Managing Cruise Control speed" and "ECOdrive mode".

Deactivating/reactivating AdaptiveCruise Control Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 45
) can be tempo-
rarily put into standby mode and then reactiva- ted.
Deactivating and putting Adaptive Cruise Control in standby mode
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
To temporarily deactivate Adaptive Cruise Control and put it in standby mode:
–Press the button on the steering wheel
(2). > The
symbol in the instrument panel
changes color from WHITE to GRAY and the set speed in the center of the speed-ometer will change from BEIGE to GRAY.
WARNING
• If Adaptive Cruise Control is in standby mode, the driver must intervene and regu-late both speed and distance to the vehicleahead.
• If the vehicle comes too close to a vehicleahead when Adaptive Cruise Control is instandby mode, the driver is instead warnedof the short distance by the Distance Alertfunction.

Standby mode due to action by the driver
Adaptive Cruise Control will be temporarily deac- tivated 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
Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera-
tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, willnot affect the setting. The vehicle will return tothe set speed when the accelerator pedal isreleased.
Automatic standby mode
Adaptive Cruise Control is dependent on other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control (ESC 46
). If any of these other systems stops
working, Adaptive Cruise Control will automati- cally switch off.
WARNING
With automatic standby mode, the driver is warned by an acoustic signal and a messageon the instrument panel. • The driver must then regulate vehicle speed, apply the brakes if necessary, andmaintain a safe distance to other vehicles. Adaptive Cruise Control may go into standbymode if:
• your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and ACC cannot determine if thevehicle ahead is stationary or if it is anotherobject, e.g. a speed bump.
• your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so thatACC no longer has a vehicle to follow.
• the driver opens the door.
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt.
• the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
• one or more of the wheels lose traction.
• the brake temperature is high.
• the parking brake is applied.
• the camera/radar sensor is covered by snowor heavy rain (the camera lens/radar wavesare blocked)
Reactivating Adaptive Cruise Control from standby mode
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
To reactivate ACC from standby mode:
–Press the button on the steering wheel
(1).
> Speed will be set to the most recently stored speed.
WARNING
A noticeable increase in speed may follow when the speed is resumed with the
steering wheel button.

Switching between Cruise Controland Adaptive Cruise Control
In vehicles equipped with Adaptive Cruise Con- trol (ACC 53
), the driver can switch between
Cruise Control (CC 54
) and ACC.
A symbol in the instrument panel indicates which cruise control system is active
CCACC
AA
Cruise control Adaptive Cruise Control
A WHITE symbol: The function is active. GRAY symbol: Standby mode
Switching from ACC to CCTo do so: 1. Press the
button on the steering wheel
keypad to put Adaptive Cruise Control in standby mode. 2.
Tap the
Cruise Control button in the center
display's Function view. The button's indica- tor will change from GRAY to GREEN.
> The symbol in the instrument panel will
change from
ACC to CC, indicating that Adaptive Cruise Con- trol is off and Cruise Control is in standbymode.
3. Pressing the
button on the steering
wheel keypad.
> Cruise Control will start and the vehicle's current speed will be set.
WARNING
Switching from ACC to CC means that the vehicle:
• will no longer maintain a preset time interval to the vehicle ahead.
• will only follow the stored speed and thedriver must therefore apply the brakeswhen necessary.
If CC is active when the engine is turned off, ACC
will be automatically activated the next time theengine is started.

–Change a set speed by pressing the (1)
or
(2) buttons briefly or by pressing and
holding them:
• Press briefly
: Press briefly: each press
changes the speed in +/- 5 mph (+/- 5 km/h) increments.
• Press
and hold: Release the button when
the set speed indicator (3) has moved tothe desired speed.
• The most recently set speed will be stored.
If speed is increased by depressing the accelera- tor pedal while pressing the
button on the
steering wheel, the vehicle's speed when the but- ton is pressed will be stored as the set speed. Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera- tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, willnot affect the setting. The vehicle will return tothe set speed when the accelerator pedal isreleased.
Automatic transmission
Pilot Assist can follow another vehicle at speeds from a standstill up to 200 km/h (125 mph). The lowest speed that can be set for Pilot Assist is 30 km/h (20 mph). When following anothervehicle, ACC can monitor that vehicle's speedand slow your own vehicle down to a standstill,but it is not possible to set speeds lower than30 km/h (20 mph). The highest possible speed that can be set is200 km/h (125 mph).

Setting a time interval for PilotAssist
Pilot Assist can be set to different time intervals.
Different time intervals to the vehicle ahead can be selectedand are shown in the instru-ment panel as 1–5 horizontalbars. The more bars, the longerthe time interval. One bar rep-resents an interval of
approx. 1 second to the vehicle ahead. 5 barsrepresents approx. 3 seconds.
NOTE
When the symbol in the instrument panel shows a vehicle and a steering wheel, PilotAssist follows a vehicle ahead at a presettime interval. When only a steering wheel is shown, there is no vehicle ahead within a reasonable dis-tance.
