Driving and operating171The selected gear is indicated in theinstrument cluster.
Temporary manual mode in drive
mode D
Manual paddle shifting is also
possible in automatic mode D. Upon
completion of manual shifting
operation, transmission changes to
automatic mode D after a defined
time.
To interrupt manual mode and return
to D, do one of the following:
● Press + paddle for 1 second.
● Move selector lever towards the left to manual mode and back toposition D.
If the vehicle is at a standstill and
engine is idling, the transmission will remain in temporary manual mode. It
changes to automatic mode when
accelerator pedal is operated for a
defined time, and no paddle shifting
at the steering wheel is performed.
General
If a higher gear is selected when
vehicle speed is too low, or a lower
gear when vehicle speed is too high,the shift is not executed. This can
cause a message in the Driver
Information Centre.
In manual mode, no automatic
shifting to a higher gear takes place
at high engine revolutions, except
activating the kickdown function.
Gear shift indication
The symbol R or S with a number
beside it is indicated when gear
shifting is recommended for fuel
saving reasons.
Shift indication appears only in
manual mode.
Electronic driving programmes
● When SPORT mode is engaged,
the vehicle shifts at higher engine
speeds (unless cruise control is
on).
SPORT mode 3 179.● Special programmes
automatically adapt the shifting
points when driving up inclines or
down hills.
● In snowy or icy conditions or on other slippery surfaces, the
electronic transmission control
enables the driver to manually
select first, second or third gear
for starting off.
Kickdown
Pressing down the accelerator pedal
beyond the kickdown detent will lead
to maximum acceleration
independent of the selected driving
mode. The transmission shifts to a
lower gear depending on engine
speed and shifts to a higher gear at
high engine revolutions.
Overheat protection In the event of transmission-
overheating due to high outside
temperatures or sporty driving style,
the torque and the maximum speed of
the engine can be temporarily
reduced.

Driving and operating187As long as the set speed is
overridden, the bars in front of the vehicle symbol appear blue.
Increase or reduce speed
The preset speed can be changed by moving thumb wheel to RES/+ to
increase or SET/- to decrease the
speed. Move thumb wheel repeatedly
to change speed in small steps, move and hold to change speed in largesteps.
Resume stored speed If the system is switched on but
inactive and a speed was stored before, turn thumb wheel to RES/+ at
a speed above 3 mph (with automatic
transmission) or above 19 mph (with
manual transmission) to resume the
stored speed.Full speed range adaptive cruise
control on vehicles with automatic transmission
Full speed range adaptive cruisecontrol will maintain a following
distance behind a detected vehicle
and slow your vehicle to a stop behind
that vehicle.
When the vehicle ahead accelerates
after a brief stop, the adaptive cruise
control will drive off automatically
without driver action. If necessary,
press RES/+ or the accelerator pedal
to resume adaptive cruise control.
Pressing the accelerator pedal allows more control over the acceleration
after driving off. Note that automatic
braking is disabled during usage of
the accelerator pedal.
If the stopped vehicle ahead was
stopped for a longer time and then
begins to move forward, the green
illuminated vehicle ahead control
indicator A will flash and a warning
chime will sound as a reminder to
check traffic before proceeding.9 Warning
When full speed range adaptive
cruise control is deactivated or
cancelled, the vehicle will no
longer be held at a stop and can
start moving. Always be prepared
to manually apply the brake pedal
to hold the vehicle stationary.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being held at a stop by the full
speed range adaptive cruise
control. Always move selector
lever to park position P and switch
off the ignition before leaving the
vehicle.
Setting the following distance
When adaptive cruise control detects a slower moving vehicle in the drivingpath, it will adjust the vehicle speed to
maintain the following distance
selected by the driver.
The following distance can be set to
near, medium or far.

Driving and operating191Driver's attention● Use adaptive cruise control carefully on bends or mountain
roads, as it can lose the vehicle
ahead and needs time to detect it again.
● Do not use the system on slippery roads as it can create
rapid changes in tyre traction
(wheel spinning), so that you
could lose control of the vehicle.
● Do not use adaptive cruise control during rain, snow or
heavy dirt, as the radar sensor
can be covered by a water film,
dust, ice or snow. This reduces or
suppresses completely the
visibility. In case of sensor
blockage, clean the sensor
cover.System limits9 Warning
The system's automatic brake
force does not permit hard braking and the braking level may not be
sufficient to avoid a collision.
● After a sudden lane change, the system needs a certain time to
detect the next preceding
vehicle. So if a new vehicle is
detected, the system may
accelerate instead of braking.
● Adaptive cruise control does ignore the oncoming traffic.
● Adaptive cruise control does not consider pedestrians and
animals for braking and driving
off.
● Adaptive cruise control considers
stopped vehicles only at low
speed.
● Do not use adaptive cruise control when towing a trailer.
● Do not use adaptive cruise control on roads with an incline ofmore than 10%.
Bends
The adaptive cruise control calculates
a predicted path based on the
centrifugal force. This predicted path
considers the current bend
characteristic, but cannot consider a
future bend change. The system may lose the current vehicle ahead or
consider a vehicle which is not in the
actual lane. This can happen when
entering or exiting a bend or if the
bend gets stronger or weaker. The
camera applies a certain correction
based on the detectable lane
markings. The control indicator A will
extinguish, if a vehicle ahead is no longer detected.

192Driving and operatingIf the centrifugal force is too high in a
bend, the system slows down the vehicle slightly. This braking level is
not designed to avoid spinning-off the
bend. The driver is responsible for
reducing the selected speed before
entering a bend and in general to
adapt the speed to the road type and
to existing speed limits.
Motorways
On motorways, adapt the set speed
to the situation and the weather.
Always consider that adaptive cruise
control has a limited visibility range, a
limited braking level and a certain
reaction time to verify if a vehicle is on
the driving path or not. Furthermore,
adaptive cruise control was designed to brake as late as possible to allow
changing the lane before the
automatic braking. Adaptive cruise
control may not be able to brake the
vehicle in time to avoid a collision with
a much slower vehicle or after a lane
change. This is particularly true while
driving fast or if the visibility is
reduced due to weather conditions.
While entering or exiting a motorway, adaptive cruise control may lose thevehicle ahead and accelerate up to
the set speed. For this reason,
decrease the set speed before the
exit or before the entry.
Vehicle path changes
If another vehicle enters your driving
path, adaptive cruise control will first
consider the vehicle when it is
completely in your path. Be ready to
take action and depress the brake
pedal, if you need to brake more
quickly.
Hill considerations9 Warning
Do not use adaptive cruise control
on steep hill roads.
System performance on hills depends
on vehicle speed, vehicle load, traffic
conditions and the road gradient. It
may not detect a vehicle in your path
while driving on hills. Full speed range
adaptive control is deactivated
automatically, as the vehicle is
stopping uphill on an incline greater than 10%. In this condition, be
prepared to take control of the
vehicle.
Note that applying the brake
deactivates the system.

194Driving and operatingNotice
The driver stays fully responsible for
driving conform to speed limits and
has to supervise any automatic set
speed change performed by this
system.
Due to system limitations and
latencies, the set speed might be
changed after entering the road
section with the new speed limit.
Speed limit signs between 20 mph
and 90 mph are considered.
Switching on the system
The function can be activated or deactivated in the vehicle settings
menu of the Driver Information Centre 3 111. Furthermore, adaptive cruise
control has be to switched on as
described above.Usage
Even if adaptive cruise control is
inactive, the set speed is updated
automatically at each new detected
speed limit as described in the next
section. Press RES+ to re-activate
adaptive cruise control, using the
memorised set speed.
Notice
Adaptive cruise control has to be
initiated once by pressing SET- after
ignition or just adaptive cruise
control has been is switched on.
If adaptive cruise control is active, the detected speed limit will be displayed in the Driver Information Centre. The
driver can accept or decline the
detected new set speed while the
display message is shown.
Press SET- on the steering wheel to
accept the detected speed limit and
take over as new set speed.
Press RES+ to decline detected
speed limit and keep the current set
speed.
If no action is performed when the
message is displayed, the detected
speed limit is taken over as new set
speed automatically after 3 seconds.
The message disappears and is
followed by the offset message:
If a new set speed was defined, a
confirmation message is displayed.
During this time, the offset from the
set speed can be adjusted.
Press SET- or RES+ to adjust the
offset.
