Adaptive cruise control
Adaptive cruise control is an
enhancement to conventional cruise
control with the additional feature of maintaining a certain distance behind the vehicle ahead.

186Driving and operatingIndication on Driver Assistance page
If the system is switched on but
inactive, a white bar in the set gap
position appears in front of the vehicle symbol.
Activation of the functionality by
setting the speed
Adaptive cruise control can be
activated at speeds above 15 mph on vehicles with automatic transmission
or 19 mph on vehicles with manual
transmission. The upper speed limit is 112 mph.
Accelerate to the desired speed and
move thumb wheel to SET/-, the
current speed is stored and
maintained.
The adaptive cruise control symbol
C , the following distance setting and
set speed are indicated in the Driver
Information Centre.
The accelerator pedal can be
released. Adaptive cruise control
remains activated during gear
shifting.
Overriding set speed
It is always possible to drive faster
than the selected set speed by
depressing the accelerator pedal.
When the accelerator pedal is
released, the vehicle returns to the
desired distance if a slower vehicle is ahead. Otherwise it returns to the
stored speed.
Once the system is activated,
adaptive cruise control decelerates or
brakes if it detects a vehicle ahead,
which is slower or closer than the
desired following distance.9 Warning
Accelerating by the driver
deactivates automatic braking by
the system. This is indicated as a
pop-up warning in the Driver
Information Centre or by the
adaptive cruise control symbol
turning blue.
Indication on Driver Assistance page

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.

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.

198Driving and operatingGeneral information9Warning
Forward collision alert is just a
warning system and does not
apply the brakes. When
approaching a vehicle ahead too
rapidly, it may not provide you
enough time to avoid a collision.
The driver accepts full
responsibility for the appropriate
following distance based on traffic, weather and visibility conditions.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver must always be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes.
System limitations
Forward collision alert is designed to warn on vehicles only, but may reactalso to other objects.
In the following cases, forward
collision alert may not detect a vehicle ahead or sensor performance is
limited:
● driving on winding or hilly roads● during nighttime driving
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● the sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt, windscreen damage or
affected by foreign items, e.g.
stickers
Following distance
indication
The following distance indication
displays the distance to a preceding
moving vehicle. The front camera in
the windscreen and the Radar sensor
are used to detect the distance of a
vehicle directly ahead in the vehicle's
path. It is active at speeds above
25 mph.When a preceding vehicle is detected
ahead, the distance is indicated in
seconds, displayed on a page in the
Driver Information Centre.
On Baselevel display, choose Info
Menu ? and choose following
distance indication page 3 111.
On Mid- and Uplevel display, select
Info menu via steering wheel buttons
and press å to select following
distance indication 3 111.
The minimum indicated distance is 0.5 seconds.
If there is no vehicle ahead or the vehicle ahead is out of range, two
dashes will be displayed: -.- sec.

208Driving and operatingIndication in the Info Display
Select parallel or perpendicular
parking slot by tapping the respective icon on the display.
Select parking side by tapping the
respective icon on the display.
When a slot is detected, a visual
feedback on the Info Display and an
acoustic signal is given.
If the driver does not stop the vehicle after a parking slot is proposed, the
system starts to search for another
suitable parking slot.
Park guiding mode
The parking slot suggestion of the system is accepted when the vehicle
is stopped by the driver within ten
metres for parallel parking slots or
six metres for perpendicular parking
slots after the message to stop the car
is indicated. The system calculates
the optimal path into the parking slot.A brief vibration in the steering wheel
after engaging reverse gear indicates
that the steering is controlled by the
system. Then the vehicle with manual transmission is steered into the slot
automatically by giving the driver
detailed instructions for braking,
accelerating and gear shifting. With
automatic transmission the vehicle is
steered into the slot automatically by
giving the driver detailed instructions for accelerating and shifting forward
or reversing. The driver must keep
hands away from the steering wheel.
During park guiding mode the
manoeuvring speed is limited.
Always pay attention to the signals of
the front-rear parking assist.
Continuous signal indicates that the
distance to an obstacle is less than approx. 30 cm.
If, for any reason, the driver must take over control of the steering, hold the
steering wheel only at the outer edge. Automatic steering is cancelled in thisevent.
