. Audio-visual collision warning
Camera/radar sensor distance monitoring
Adaptive Cruise Control utilizes approx. 40% of
the vehicle's braking capacity. If a situation
requires more braking force than the Adaptive
Cruise Control can provide, and if the driver does
not apply the brakes, a warning light and audible
warning signal will be activated to alert the driver
that immediate action is required.
NOTE Visual warnings on the windshield may be dif-
ficult to notice in cases of strong sunlight,
reflections, extreme light contrasts, or if the
driver is wearing sunglasses or is not looking
straight ahead.
WARNING
Adaptive Cruise Control only issues a warning
for vehicles detected by its radar unit – thus, a
warning may come after a delay or not at all.
Never wait for a warning. Apply the
brakes when necessary.

NOTE
The greater the vehicles' speed, the
greater the distance between them for a
set time interval.
Only use the time intervals permitted by
local traffic regulations.
If the Adaptive Cruise Control does not
seem to respond with a speed increase
when activated, it may be because the
time interval to the vehicle ahead is
shorter than the set time interval.
WARNING
Only use a time interval suitable for the
current traffic conditions.
The driver should be aware that short
time intervals give them limited time to
react and act to any unforeseen traffic
situation.
Setting how ACC should maintain
distance* to the vehicle ahead
A number of different settings can be made for
how Adaptive Cruise Control should maintain a
time interval to the vehicle ahead. Settings are
made using the DRIVE MODE controls. Select one of the following:
Eco - ACC will focus on providing optimal
fuel economy, which will increase the time
interval to the vehicle ahead.
Comfort - ACC will focus on following the
set time interval to the vehicle ahead as
smoothly as possible.
Dynamic
- ACC will focus on following the
set time interval to the vehicle ahead more
exactly, which could mean faster acceleration
and heavier braking.
For more information, see "Drive modes".

To temporarily deactivate Adaptive Cruise Control
and put it in standby mode:
– Press the button on the steering wheel
(2).
> The symbol in the instrument panel
changes color from WHITE to GRAY and
the set speed in the center of the speed-
ometer will change from BEIGE to GRAY.
WARNING
If Adaptive Cruise Control is in standby
mode, the driver must intervene and regu-
late both speed and distance to the vehicle
ahead.
If the vehicle comes too close to a vehicle
ahead when Adaptive Cruise Control is in
standby mode, the driver is instead warned
of the short distance by the Distance Alert
function.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
Adaptive Cruise Control will be temporarily deac-
tivated and put in standby mode if:
the brakes are applied
the gear selector is moved to N
the vehicle is driven faster than the set
speed for more than 1 minute 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 standby mode
Adaptive Cruise Control is dependent on other
systems, such as Electronic Stability Control
(ESC
47
). If any of these other systems stops
working, Adaptive Cruise Control will automati-
cally switch off.
WARNING With automatic standby mode, the driver is
warned by an acoustic signal and a message
on the instrument panel.

The driver must then regulate vehicle
speed, apply the brakes if necessary, and
maintain a safe distance to other vehicles.
Adaptive Cruise Control may go into standby
mode if: your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h
(3 mph) and ACC cannot determine if the
vehicle ahead is stationary or if it is 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
ACC no longer has a vehicle to follow.
the driver opens the door.
the driver unbuckles the seat belt.
the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
one or more of the wheels lose traction.
the brake temperature is high.
the parking brake is applied.
the camera/radar sensor is covered by snow
or heavy rain (the camera lens/radar waves
are blocked)

Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 300) Passing assistance with Adaptive
Cruise Control
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC
48
) can assist the
driver when passing other vehicles.
How passing assistance worksWhen ACC is following another vehicle and you
indicate that you intend to pass that vehicle by
using the turn signal 49
, Adaptive Cruise Control
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.

310 Starting passing assistance with
Adaptive Cruise Control
Several conditions must be met for passing
assistance to be possible.
Requirements for passing assistanceIn order to activate passing assistance:
your vehicle must be following a vehicle
ahead (target vehicle)
your vehicle's current speed must be
at least 70 km/h (43 mph)
the set speed for ACC must be high
enough to safely pass another vehicle.
Starting parking assistanceTo start passing assistance:
–
Turn on the left turn signal.
>

Passing assistance will start.

Passing assistance with Adaptive Cruise
Control (p. 309) 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 50
in standby mode.

Passing assistance with Adaptive Cruise
Control (p. 309) Switching target vehicles with
Adaptive Cruise Control
At certain speeds, models with automatic trans-
missions and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 51
)
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. 50

WARNINGWhen 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.

Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 300) Automatic braking with Adaptive
Cruise Control
The Adaptive cruise control (ACC
52
) has a spe-
cial brake function in slow traffic and while sta-
tionary.
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,
Adaptive Cruise Control will go into standby
mode and the Auto-hold brake function will acti-
vate.
– Adaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated in
one of the following ways:
Pressing the button on the steering
wheel keypad.
Pressing the accelerator pedal.
>

Adaptive Cruise Control will resume fol-
lowing the vehicle ahead if it begins to
move within approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE ACC can keep the vehicle stationary for no
more than 5 minutes – after that time the
parking brake is applied and Adaptive Cruise
Control is deactivated.
The parking brake must be released before
Adaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated.
Deactivation of the Auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, Auto-hold will be deactivated
when the vehicle is at a standstill and Adaptive
Cruise Control will go into standby mode. This
means that the brakes will be released and the
vehicle could begin to roll. The driver must
actively apply the brakes to keep the vehicle sta-
tionary.
This can occur if:
the driver depresses the brake pedal
the parking brake is applied
the gear selector is moved to the
P
, N
or R
positions
the driver puts Adaptive Cruise Control in
standby mode.
Auto Activate Parking BrakeIn certain situations, the parking brake will be
applied to keep the vehicle at a standstill. 51
