Limitations of passing assistance
with Adaptive Cruise Control
Passing assistance functionality may be reduced
in certain situations.
WARNING The driver should be aware that if conditions
suddenly change when using Parking Assis-
tance, the function may implement an unde-
sired acceleration in certain conditions.
Some situations should be avoided, e.g. if:
•
the vehicle is approaching an exit in the
same direction as passing would normally
occur
• the vehicle ahead slows before your vehi-
cle has had time to switch to the passing
lane
• traffic in the passing lane slows down
• a vehicle for right-hand traffic is driven in
a country with left-hand traffic (or vice
versa).
Situations of this type can be avoided by tempo-
rarily putting ACC 53
in standby mode.

• Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 295) Switching target vehicles with
Adaptive Cruise Control
At certain speeds, models with automatic trans-
missions and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 54
)
can switch target vehicles.
Switching target vehicles If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be
stationary traffic ahead.
When Adaptive Cruise Control is actively follow-
ing another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h
(20 mph) and switches targets from a moving
vehicle to a stationary vehicle, Adaptive Cruise
Control will brake for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING When Adaptive Cruise Control follows another
vehicle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h
(20 mph) and changes target vehicle – from a
moving vehicle to a stationary one – Adaptive
Cruise Control will ignore the stationary vehi-
cle and instead accelerate to the stored
speed.
•
The driver must then intervene and apply
the brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching
targets
Adaptive Cruise Control will be disabled and go
into standby mode:
• if your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h
(3 mph) and Adaptive Cruise Control cannot
determine if the target object is a stationary
vehicle or another object, e.g. a speed bump.
• if your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h
(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so that
Adaptive Cruise Control no longer has a vehi-
cle to follow.

Pilot Assist
Pilot Assist helps the driver keep the vehicle in
the current traffic lane by providing steering
assistance and maintaining an even speed and a
set time interval to the vehicle ahead.
How Pilot Assist worksThe Pilot Assist function is primarily intended for
use on highways and other major roads where it
can help provide a more comfortable and relaxing
driving experience. The camera/radar sensor monitors the distance to the
vehicle ahead and detects lane markings
62
. Camera and radar sensor
Distance monitor
Lane marker line monitors The driver sets the desired speed and distance to
the vehicle ahead. Pilot Assist monitors the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead and the traffic lane's
side markers using the camera and radar sensor.
The system maintains the set time interval to the
vehicle ahead by automatically adjusting your
vehicle's speed and keeps your vehicle in its lane
by providing steering assistance.
Pilot Assist's steering assistance is based on
monitoring the direction of the vehicle ahead and
the traffic lane's side marker lines. The driver can
override Pilot Assist's steering recommendations
at any time and steer in another direction, e.g. to
change lanes or avoid obstacles on the road.
If the camera/radar sensor cannot detect the
lane's side marker lines or if Pilot Assist is unable
for some other reason to clearly interpret the
lane, Pilot Assist will temporarily deactivate steer-
ing assistance until it can once again interpret
the lane markings. However, the speed and dis-
tance warnings will remain active.
WARNING
Pilot Assist is deactivated automatically and
resumes working without prior notice. The color of the steering wheel
symbol indicates the current
status of steering assistance:
• GREEN indicates that steer-
ing assistance is active
• GRAY (as shown in illustra-
tion) indicates that steering assistance is deacti-
vated. 62
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on mod\
el.

With Adaptive Cruise Control in standby mode:
1. Press the ▶ button on the steering wheel (6).
>
The 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 the
steering wheel symbol (2)
changes from GRAY to
GREEN.
Pilot Assist will only regulate
the time interval to the vehicle ahead when the
distance symbol shows a vehicle (1) over the
steering wheel symbol. A speed interval will be marked
at the same time.
The higher speed is the set
speed for your vehicle and the
lower speed is the speed of the
vehicle ahead (target vehicle).
Hands on the steering wheelPilot Assist only functions if the driver's hands
are on the steering wheel. If Pilot Assist detects
that the driver's hands are not on the steering
wheel, the driver will be instructed to actively
steer 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 go
into 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 steering
wheel.

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 to
the 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, will
not affect the setting. The vehicle will return to
the set speed when the accelerator pedal is
released.
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 another
vehicle, ACC can monitor that vehicle's speed
and slow your own vehicle down to a standstill,
but it is not possible to set speeds lower than
30 km/h (20 mph). The highest possible speed that can be set is
200 km/h (125 mph).

Pilot Assist (p. 311) Setting a time interval for Pilot
Assist
Pilot Assist
can be set to different time intervals.
Different time intervals to the
vehicle ahead can be selected
and are shown in the instru-
ment panel as 1–5 horizontal
bars. The more bars, the longer
the time interval. One bar rep-
resents an interval of
approx. 1 second to the vehicle ahead. 5 bars
represents approx. 3 seconds.
NOTE When the symbol in the instrument panel
shows a vehicle and a steering wheel, Pilot
Assist follows a vehicle ahead at a preset
time interval.
When only a steering wheel is shown, there is
no vehicle ahead within a reasonable dis-
tance.

Passing assistance with Pilot Assist
Pilot Assist can assist the driver when passing
other vehicles.
How passing assistance worksWhen Pilot Assist is following another vehicle
and you indicate that you intend to pass that
vehicle by using the turn signal 67
, Pilot Assist will
begin accelerating toward the vehicle ahead
before your vehicle has moved into the passing
lane.
The function will then delay a speed reduction to
avoid early braking as your vehicle approaches a
slower-moving vehicle.
The function remains active until your vehicle has
passed the other vehicle.
WARNING Please note that this function can be acti-
vated in more situations than just passing
another vehicle, such as when a direction indi-
cator is used to indicate a lane change or
before exiting to another road – the vehicle
will then briefly accelerate.

322Switching target vehicles with Pilot
Assist
At certain speeds, models with automatic trans-
missions and

Pilot Assist can switch target vehi-
cles.
Switching target vehicles If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be
stationary traffic ahead.
When Pilot Assist is actively following another
vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h (20 mph) and
switches targets from a moving vehicle to a sta-
tionary vehicle,

Pilot Assist will brake for the sta-
tionary vehicle.
WARNING When Pilot Assist follows another vehicle at
speeds over approx. 30 km/h (20 mph) and
changes target vehicle – from a moving vehi-
cle to a stationary one – Pilot Assist will
ignore the stationary vehicle and instead
accelerate to the stored speed.
• The driver must then intervene and apply
the brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching
targets
Pilot Assist disengages and goes into standby
mode if:
• your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h
(3 mph) and Pilot Assist cannot determine if
the target object is a stationary vehicle or
another object, e.g. a speed bump.
• your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h
(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so that
Pilot Assist no longer has a vehicle to follow.

•Pilot Assist (p. 311) Automatic braking with Pilot Assist
Pilot Assist has a special braking function in
slow traffic and at a standstill.
Braking function in slow traffic and at a
standstill
In slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stop-
ped at a traffic light, driving will resume automati-
cally if the vehicle is stopped for less than
approx. 3 seconds. If it takes more than 3 sec-
onds for the vehicle ahead to begin moving again,
Pilot Assist will go into standby mode and the
Auto-hold brake function will activate.
– Pilot Assist can be reactivated by:
• Pressing the button on the steering
wheel keypad.
• Pressing the accelerator pedal.
>

Pilot Assist will resume following the vehi-
cle ahead if it begins to move within
approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE Pilot Assist can keep the vehicle stationary
for no more than 5 minutes – after that time
the parking brake is applied and the function
is deactivated.
The parking brake must be released before
Pilot Assist can be reactivated.

Recommended maintenance for the
camera/radar sensor
In order for the camera/radar sensor to function
properly, the area of the windshield in front of the
unit must be kept free of dirt, ice, snow, etc. and
should be washed regularly with water and car
washing detergent.
NOTE
Dirt, ice and snow covering the camera and
radar unit reduce their function and can make
measurement impossible.
It could cause functions to be reduced, deac-
tivated completely or produce an incorrect
function response.

Camera (p. 331) City Safety™
City Safety can alert the driver with light, sound
and pulsations in the brake pedal to help the
driver detect pedestrians, cyclists, large animals
and vehicles that appear suddenly – the vehicle
will then attempt to automatically brake if the
driver does not act within a reasonable amount
of time. Location of the camera and radar sensor
75
.
City Safety can help prevent a collision or lower
the vehicle's speed at the point of impact.
City Safety is an aid intended to assist the driver
if a collision with a pedestrian, large animal,
cyclist or vehicle is imminent.
City Safety can help the driver avoid a collision
when e.g. driving in stop-and-go traffic, when changes in the traffic ahead and driver distraction
could lead to an incident.
The function assists the driver by automatically
applying the brakes if there is an imminent risk of
a collision and the driver does not react in time by
braking and/or steering away.
City Safety activates a brief, forceful braking in an
attempt to stop your vehicle immediately behind
the vehicle or object ahead.
City Safety is activated in situations in which the
driver should have applied the brakes much ear-
lier, which means that the system will not be able
to assist the driver in all situations.
City Safety is designed to be activated as late as
possible to help avoid unnecessary intervention.
Normally, the occupants of the vehicle will not be
aware of City Safety except when the system
intervenes when a collision is imminent.
