Driving and operating171take action and depress the brake
pedal, if you need to brake more
quickly.
Hill considerations9 Warning
Do not use the adaptive cruise
control on steep hill roads.
System performance on hills depends
on vehicle speed, vehicle load, traffic
conditions and the road incline. It may not detect a vehicle in your path whiledriving on hills. On steep hills, you
may have to use the accelerator
pedal to maintain your vehicle speed.
When going downhill you may have to
brake to maintain or reduce your
speed.
Note that applying the brake
deactivates the system.
Radar unit
The radar unit is located in the middle of the front bumper.
9 Warning
The radar unit was aligned
carefully during manufacture.
Therefore, in the event of a front-
end impact, do not use the system. The front bumper may appear to
be intact, however the sensor
behind may be affected and react
incorrectly. After an accident,
consult a workshop to verify and
adjust the radar unit position.
Fault
In the event of a fault with the adaptive
cruise control, you are alerted by the
illumination of a warning light and the display of a message in the
instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal.
The adaptive cruise control may not
operate correctly if traffic signs do not comply with the Vienna Convention
on Road Signs and Signals.
Have the system checked by a dealer
or a qualified workshop.
As a safety measure, do not use the
system if the brake lights are faulty. Do not use the system if the front
bumper is damaged.
Forward collision alertThe forward collision alert may help to
avoid or reduce the harm caused by
front-end crashes.
The forward collision alert uses the
front camera in the windscreen and a radar unit located behind the front
bumper of the vehicle to detect a
vehicle directly ahead, in your path.
186Driving and operatingThe LED comes on after a delay when
passing another vehicle slowly.
Operation conditions
The following conditions must be
fulfilled for proper operation:
● all vehicles are moving in the same direction and in adjacent
lanes
● the speed of your vehicle is between 12 and 140 km/h
● passing a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 10 km/h
● another vehicle is passing with a speed difference of less than
25 km/h
● the traffic flow is normal
● driving on a straight or slightly curved road
● the vehicle is not pulling a trailer
No alert will be given in the following
situations:
● in the presence of non-moving objects, e.g. parked vehicles,
barriers, street lights, road signs
● with vehicles moving in the opposite direction● driving on a winding road or a sharp corner
● when passing or being passed by
a very long vehicle, e.g. lorry,
coach, which is at the same time
detected at the rear in the blind
spot angle and present in the
driver's forward field of vision
● in very heavy traffic, vehicles detected in front and behind are
confused with a lorry or a
stationary object
● when passing too quickly
Deactivation The system is deactivated in the
vehicle personalisation 3 108. B
extinguishes in the instrument cluster.
Additionally, an acoustic signal
sounds.
The state of the system is stored
when switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically
deactivated when towing an
electrically connected trailer.
Due to adverse weather conditions
such as heavy rain, false detections
may occur.Fault
In the event of a fault, B flashes for a
few moments in the instrument panel,
accompanied by C and a display
message. Contact a dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Panoramic view system
This system allows views of the
vehicle's surroundings to be
displayed as a nearly 360° picture in
the Info Display, like a bird's eye view.
The system uses: ● rear camera, installed in the tailgate
● ultrasonic parking sensors in the rear bumper
● front camera, installed in the front
grill below the enblem
● ultrasonic parking sensors in the front bumper
192Driving and operatingAt speeds below 60 km/h the systemis inoperable.
Fault
In the event of a fault, C appears in
the instrument panel, accompanied
by a display message and a warning
chime. Contact a dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system
checked.
System limitations The system performance may notoperate properly when:
● Vehicle speed is below 60 km/h.
● Windscreen is not clean or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers.
● Driving on winding or hilly roads.
● During nighttime driving.
● Adverse environmental conditions like heavy rain, snow,
direct sunlight or shadows.
● The sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt, windscreen damage or
affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers.● The sun is shining directly into the camera lens.
● Close vehicles ahead.
● Driving on banked roads.
● Driving on road edges.
● Driving on roads with poor lane markings.
● Sudden lighting changes.
The system can not operate when no
lane marking is detected.
Lane keep assist
Lane keep assist helps to avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. The front camera
observes the lane markings between
which the vehicle is driving. If the
vehicle approaches a lane marking, the steering wheel is gently turned to
position the vehicle back into the lane. The driver will then notice a turning
movement of the steering wheel. Turn steering wheel in same direction, if
system steers not sufficient. Turn
steering wheel gently into opposite
direction, if lane change is intended.When the system steers to correct the trajectory of the vehicle, a flashes
yellow in the instrument cluster.
A warning message in the Driver
Information Centre accompanied by a
warning chime alerts the driver when
immediate driver´s action is required.
Unintended lane departure is not
assumed by the system when the turn lights are operated and during
20 seconds after turn lights have
been switched off.
Note
The system may be switched off if it
detects lanes which are too narrow,
too wide or too curved.
Following preconditions have to be
fullfilled:
● vehicle speed must be between 65 km/h and 180 km/h
● the driver must hold the steering wheel with both hands
● the change of trajectory is not accompanied by operation of theturn lights
● the Electronic Stability Control is activated and not in operation
Driving and operating193● the vehicle is not connected to atrailer or an electric bicycle carrier
● normal driving behaviour (system
detects dynamic driving style, i.e.
pressure on the brake or
accelerator pedal)
● roads with poor lane markings
● no spare wheel is used
● the driver needs to be active during the correction
● the vehicle is not driven in a tight
corner
ActivationIf the system is activated, the LED in
the button Ó is not illuminated. To
activate the system when the system
is deactivated, press Ó.
The system is operational at vehicle
speeds between 65 km/h and
180 km/h and if lane markings are
detectable. The driver must hold the
steering wheel with both hands. The Electronic Stability Control system
must be activated.
The control indicator a flashes
yellow during trajectory correction.
If the driver wishes to maintain the
trajectory of the vehicle, he can
prevent the correction by keeping a
firm grip on the steering wheel, e.g.
during an avoiding manoeuvre. The correction is interrupted if the turn
lights are operated.
There is no correction triggered when
the turn lights are operated and
during 20 seconds after turn lights
have been switched off.
If the system detects that the driver is not holding the steering wheel firmly
enough during an automatic
correction of trajectory, it interruptsthe correction. A warning message in
the Driver Information Centre
accompanied by a warning chime
alerts the driver when immediate
driver´s action is required.
Deactivation
To deactivate the system, press and
hold Ó. Deactivation of the system is
confirmed by the illuminated LED in
the button. In the Driver Information
Centre solid grey lines are displayed.
