The system may have limited func-
tionality in the following situations,
for example:
In thick fog, wet conditions or
snow.
When there are missing, worn,
poorly visible, merging/separat-
ing or ambiguous lane markings;
for example, in areas where
there are roadworks.
If lane markings are covered by
snow, ice, dirt or water.
On sharp bends or narrow roads.
If lane markings are not white.
If lane markings are obscured by
objects.
If the vehicle is too close to the
vehicle ahead.
When there is sustained glare
due to oncoming light, for exam-
ple the sun is low in the sky.
If the field of view of the camera or the windscreen in front of the
rear-view mirror is soiled or cov-

The system may not respond at all, or
may respond too late, incorrectly or

The system is reset approximately
45 minutes after the vehicle is
stopped, for example when taking a
break during a long motorway jour-

country-specific and special equip-

It may therefore describe equip-

ABS prevents the wheels from lock-
ing when the brakes are applied.
Steering control is retained even in
the event of full braking, thereby
enhancing active road safety.
ABS is ready to operate each time
the engine is started.

operate sufficiently:

excessively high rate of speedDriving Stability Control

In this case, even if the ABS operates,
it cannot operate sufficiently to avoid a
possible dangerous situation. The
driver is solely responsible for under-
standing their surroundings and driving
at a safe speed.
When the brake pedal is depressed
quickly, the system automatically
applies maximum braking power
assistance. By doing so, the brak-
ing distance is kept as short as pos-
sible in full braking situations. The
advantages offered by the Anti-lock
Brake System ABS can also be uti-
lised to the full.
The pressure on the brake should
be maintained for the duration of
the full-braking process.
In conjunction with Adaptive Cruise
Control, this system ensures that
the brake responds even more
quickly when braking in critical situ-
ations.The system provides support when
driving off on upward gradients.
1Hold the vehicle in place by
depressing the foot brake.
2Release the foot brake and drive
off without delay.
The vehicle is held for approxi-
mately 2 seconds after the foot
brake has been released.
Depending on the vehicle's load,
the vehicle may roll backwards a lit-
tle.
The system reduces engine power
output and applies the brakes on
individual wheels thereby helping,
within the limits imposed by the
laws of physics, to keep the vehicle
safely on course.

The system is interrupted when
reverse gear is engaged or the

Press the rocker switch repeatedly
upwards or downwards until the
desired speed limit is set.
Each time the rocker switch is
pressed to the resistance point,
the speed limit is increased or
decreased by 1 km/h, 1 mph.
Each time the rocker switch is
pressed beyond the resistance
point, the speed limit changes to
the next multiple of 10 km/h on
the km/h display or the next mul-
tiple of 5 mph on the mph display in the speedometer.
If the set speed limit has been
reached or unintentionally
exceeded, for example when driv-
ing downhill, there is no active
brake intervention.
If you set a speed limit while driving
which is below the current speed,
the vehicle coasts down to the set
speed limit.
Vehicles with Speed Limit Assist,
see page 234: a change in the
speed limit detected by Speed Limit
Assist can be adopted for the
Speed Limiter as a new speed limit.
The current speed can also be
stored by pressing the button:
The system gives a warning if the
travelling speed exceeds the set
speed limit.
You can intentionally exceed the
speed limit. There is no warning in
such a case.
To exceed the set speed limit inten-
tionally, fully depress the accelera-
tor pedal.

active again as soon as the current
speed falls below the set speed

Cruise Control is resumed with the

The saved speed value is deleted
and can no longer be called up in
the following instances:
When the system is switched off.
When drive-ready state is
switched off.
With the corresponding equipment,
the set speed limit is displayed digi-

Some information from the system
can also be shown in the Head-Up

vehicle may drive slower than the
desired speed on uphill gradients if
the engine power is not sufficient.
This system allows you to set a
desired speed and a desired dis-
tance from the vehicle in front,
using the buttons on the steering
wheel.
When the road ahead is clear, the
system maintains the desired
speed by braking or accelerating
the vehicle automatically, as
required.
If there is a vehicle driving in front,
the system adapts your own vehicle
speed in order to maintain the set
distance from the vehicle ahead.
The speed is adapted as far as the
given situation allows.
