immediately after starting is optimized to
minimize vehicle emissions and maximize
cabin comfort and fuel economy. Note:
You can only attempt to start the
engine for a limited amount of time before
the starting system temporarily disables. If
you exceed the starting time limit, a
message may appear and you cannot
attempt to start the engine for at least 15
minutes.
Before starting your vehicle, check the
following:
• Make sure the headlamps and
electrical accessories are off.
• Make sure the parking brake is on.
• Make sure the transmission is in park
(P).

once the engine has developed sufficient
torque to prevent your vehicle from rolling
down the slope. This is an advantage when
pulling away on a slope, for example from
a car park ramp, traffic lights or when
reversing uphill into a parking space.
The system will turn on automatically on
any slope which can result in significant
vehicle rollback.
Using Hill Start Assist
1. Press the brake pedal to bring your
vehicle to a complete standstill. Keep
the brake pedal pressed. If equipped
with a manual transmission, also press
the clutch pedal.
2. If the sensors detect that your vehicle is on a slope, the system will activate
automatically.
3. When you remove your foot from the brake pedal, your vehicle will remain
on the slope without rolling away for
approximately two to three seconds.
This hold time will automatically be
extended if you are in the process of
driving off.
4. Drive off in the normal manner. The brakes will be released automatically.
Switching the System On and Off
Vehicles with Manual Transmission
You can switch this feature on or off in the
information display. The system
remembers the last setting when you start
your vehicle.
Vehicles with Automatic Transmission
You cannot turn the system on or off.

Note:
Press and hold the toggle button
upward or downward to change the set
speed in larger increments.
The system may apply the brakes to slow
the vehicle to the new set speed. The set
speed displays continuously in the
information display when the system is
active.
Canceling the Set Speed Press and release the switch or
tap the brake pedal.
The last set speed and gap setting displays
in grey but does not erase.
Note: If you press the clutch pedal for an
extended period, this action also cancels
the set speed.
Resuming the Set Speed Press and release the switch.
Your vehicle speed returns to the
previously set speed and gap setting. The
set speed shows continuously in the
information display while the system is
active.
Note: Only use resume if you are aware of
the set speed and intend to return to it.
Automatic Cancellation
The system is not functional at vehicle
speeds below 12 mph (20 km/h). An
audible alarm sounds and the automatic
braking releases if the vehicle drops below
this speed.
Automatic cancellation can also occur
when:
• The tires lose traction.
• The engine speed is too low.
• You apply the parking brake. Note:
If the engine speed drops too low,
the information display advises you to shift
to a lower gear.
Hilly Condition Usage
Note: An audible alarm sounds and the
system shuts down if it applies brakes for
an extended period of time. This allows the
brakes to cool. The system functions
normally again when the brakes have
cooled.
You should select a lower gear when the
system is active in situations such as
prolonged downhill driving on steep
grades, for example in mountainous areas.
The system needs additional engine
braking in these situations to reduce the
load on the vehicle ’s regular brake system
to prevent it from overheating.
Switching Adaptive Cruise Control
Off Press and release the switch.
Note: You erase the set speed when you
switch the system off.
Detection Issues WARNING:
On rare occasions,
detection issues can occur due to the road
infrastructures, for example bridges,
tunnels and safety barriers. In these cases,
the system may brake late or
unexpectedly. At all times, you are
responsible for controlling your vehicle,
supervising the system and intervening, if
required. WARNING:
If the system
malfunctions, have your vehicle checked
as soon as possible.
