When the vehicle is approaching an off-ramp or a fork in the road, the driver should steer towardthe desired lane to indicate to Pilot Assist thedesired direction of travel.
Pilot Assist strives to keep the vehicle
in the center of the lane
When Pilot Assist provides steering assistance, itstrives to position the vehicle in the center of thelane between the lane markings. For the smooth-est driving experience possible, the driver shouldpermit the vehicle to find the optimal positioning.The driver should check that the vehicle is posi-tioned safely in the lane and can always adjustthe vehicle's position by applying more force tothe steering wheel. If Pilot Assist does not position the vehicle appro- priately in the lane, the driver should turn off PilotAssist or switch to Adaptive Cruise Control.

symbol will change to Pilot
Assist in standby mode (8).
2. Press the
button on the steering wheel
(2).
> Pilot Assist will start and the current speed will be stored, which will be shown by numbers in the center of the speedom-eter.
...or... With Adaptive Cruise Control started:
–Press the ▶ button on the steering wheel (6).
> Pilot Assist will start.
Pilot Assist's steering assis- tance is only active when thesteering wheel symbol (2)changes from GRAY toGREEN. Pilot Assist will only regulate
the time interval to the vehicle ahead when the distance symbol shows a vehicle (1) over thesteering wheel symbol.
A speed interval will be marked at the same time. The higher speed is the set speed for your vehicle and thelower speed is the speed of thevehicle ahead (target vehicle).
Hands on the steering wheelPilot Assist only functions if the driver's hands are on the steering wheel. If Pilot Assist detectsthat the driver's hands are not on the steeringwheel, the driver will be instructed to activelysteer the vehicle by a text message and an audi-ble signal. If Pilot Assist still cannot detect the driver's hands on the steering wheel, the function will gointo standby mode. Pilot Assist must then be reactivated by pressing the
button on the
steering wheel.
NOTE
Note that the Pilot Assist function only works when the driver's hands are on the steeringwheel.

–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.

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 follow the vehicle ahead as smoothly as possible, Pilot Assist allows the time interval tovary considerably in certain situations. For exam-ple, at low speeds and short distances to thevehicle ahead, Pilot Assist increases the timeinterval 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 Pilot Assist does not seem to respondwith a speed increase when activated, itmay be because the time interval to thevehicle ahead is shorter than the set timeinterval.
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 Pilot Assist should maintain distance
* to the vehicle ahead
The driver can choose different drive modes to determine how Pilot Assist should maintain atime interval to the vehicle ahead. Settings are made using the DRIVE MODE controls. Select one of the following:
•
Eco - Pilot Assist will focus on providing
optimal fuel economy, which will increase the time interval to the vehicle ahead.
•
Comfort - Pilot Assist will focus on following
the set time interval to the vehicle ahead as smoothly as possible.
•
Dynamic - Pilot Assist will focus on follow-
ing the set time interval to the vehicle ahead more exactly, which could mean faster accel-eration and heavier braking.
For more information, see "Drive modes".

> Pilot Assist is turned off and Adaptive Cruise Control will go into active mode.
WARNING
• With Pilot Assist in standby mode, the driver must intervene and steer and regu-late both speed and distance to the vehi-cle ahead.
• If the vehicle comes too close to a vehicleahead when Pilot Assist is in standbymode, the driver is instead warned of theshort distance by the Distance Alert func-tion.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
Pilot Assist will be temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode if:
• the brakes are applied.
• the gear selector is moved to
N
• a turn signal is used for more than 1 minute.
• 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 to the set speed when the accelerator pedal isreleased. When the turn signals are used, Pilot Assist's steering assistance will be temporarily deacti-vated. When the turn signal is switched off, steer-ing assistance will be automatically reactivated ifthe traffic lane's side markings can still bedetected.

Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist is dependent on other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control (ESC65
). If any of
these other systems stops working, Pilot Assist will automatically 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, e.g.: • the driver opens the door.
• the brake temperature is high.
• the driver's hands are not on the steering wheel.
• the parking brake is applied.
• the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt.
• one or more of the wheels lose traction.
• the camera/radar sensor is covered by snowor heavy rain (the camera lens/radar wavesare blocked) •
your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and Pilot Assist cannot determine ifthe vehicle ahead is stationary or if it isanother object, e.g. a speed bump.
• your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so thatPilot Assist no longer has a vehicle to follow.Reactivating Pilot Assist from standby
mode
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
To reactivate Pilot Assist:
–Press the button on the steering wheel
(1).
