If several warnings are present, the symbols will appear for several seconds, one after another. The
symbols will continue to appear until the faults are rectified.

If warning messages about malfunctions are displayed when the ignition is switched on, it may not
be possible to adjust some settings as described, or the information display may appear differently.
If this is the case, take the vehicle to a qualified workshop to have the malfunctions rectified.

WARNING
Always avoid traversing a slope Traversing a slope
Vehicle occupants should never leave the vehicle via the doors facing down the hill when stopped
sideways on a steep hill. The combined centre of gravity of the vehicle and its payload (vehicle
occupants and payload) can shift and cause the vehicle to roll over and roll down the incline. Always
leave the vehicle slowly via the doors which open up the incline Traversing a slope

WARNING
The cruise control system has been designed for use on surfaced roads only. The cruise control
system is not suitable for use offroad and may even be hazardous. If you use the cruise control
system while driving offroad, you may lose control over the vehicle and sustain serious injuries.
Never use the cruise control system when driving offroad.

WARNING
The area monitoring system (Front Assist) was developed for use on surfaced roads only. The area
monitoring system is not suitable for use offroad and may even be hazardous. If you use the area
monitoring system while driving offroad, you may lose control over the vehicle and sustain serious
injuries.
Never use the area monitoring system when driving offroad.

WARNING
Driving the vehicle when the fuel level is too low could lead to your vehicle breaking down offroad,
accidents and serious injuries.
When the fuel level is too low, the fuel supply to the engine could be irregular, especially when
driving up or down hills and inclines.
The steering, all driver assist systems and brake support systems will not function if the engine
sputters or stops completely due to a lack of fuel or irregular fuel supply.
Always fill the tank when it is still 1/4 full. This reduces the risk of running out of fuel and breaking
down.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
Special driving situations
Limits of ACC
Switching ACC on and off
Setting ACC
Troubleshooting
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) maintains a speed selected by the driver. If the vehicle
approaches a vehicle in front, the ACC automatically adapts the speed so that a distance you have
selected is maintained.
Speed range
ACC controls the vehicle in the speed range between 30 km/h (20 mph) and 160 km/h (100 mph)
or 210 km/h (130 mph). This speed range may differ in certain markets.
Driving with ACC
You can override the ACC at any time. Control will be interrupted when you brake. If you accelerate,
control will be interrupted for the duration of the acceleration process and will then continue again.
Control by ACC is less dynamic when towing a trailer
if the trailer's brake lights are faulty.
Does the vehicle have ACC?
The vehicle is equipped with ACC if you can make settings for ACC in the vehicle settings of the
Infotainment system Vehicle settings menu
Brake request

corresponding message on the instrument cluster. In addition, the red warning lamp lights up
and an acoustic warning is given. Brake immediately!
Radar sensor
ACC detects driving situations by means of the radar sensor at the front of the vehicle Front view
The radar sensor has a range of up to approximately 120 m.

WARNING
The intelligent technology used in the ACC cannot overcome the laws of physics, and functions only
within the limits of the system. Never let the extra convenience tempt you into taking safety risks
when driving. Careless or unintentional use of the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) can cause accidents
and lead to serious injury. The system is not a substitute for the full concentration of the driver.
Adapt your speed and distance from the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic
conditions.
Never use the ACC in poor visibility, on steep or winding roads, or on slippery road surfaces e.g. due
to snow, ice, wet roads, loose chippings, or on flooded roads.
Never use the ACC offroad or on non-surfaced roads. The ACC is designed for use on surfaced roads
only.
The ACC will not react to stationary vehicles.
The ACC will not react to persons, animals or vehicles crossing or approaching in the same lane.
Brake immediately if speed reduction by ACC is not sufficient.
Brake immediately if a request to brake appears on the instrument cluster display.
Brake if the vehicle starts rolling unintentionally after a request to brake.
Be prepared to control the speed yourself at all times.
Special driving situations

Fig. 118 On the instrument cluster display: slower vehicle detected in the left-hand lane (illustration).

adar sensor is exposed to environmental conditions that impair sensor functioning, the
system may detect this only after a certain time. For this reason, possible functional restrictions may
be displayed only after a delay at the start of the journey and when driving
Objects that cannot be detected
Persons.
Animals.
Stationary vehicles.
Crossing or oncoming vehicles.
Other stationary obstacles.
If a stationary vehicle is hidden behind a vehicle that has been detected by the adaptive cruise
control and this vehicle turns off the road or changes lane, the ACC will not react to the stationary
vehicle Fig. 120.
Bends
The radar sensor always measures straight ahead. For this reason, vehicles may be incorrectly
detected or vehicles driving ahead not detected in tight bends Fig. 119.
Vehicles outside the sensor range
Vehicles that are driving outside the sensor range in close proximity to your vehicle, e.g. motorbikes
Fig. 119.
Vehicles that change into your lane directly in front of your vehicle Fig. 120.
Vehicles with bodies or attachments that project beyond the vehicle.

WARNING
If you use ACC in the above situations, this can result in accidents and serious injuries as well as
violation of legal regulations.
Switching ACC on and off

the driver and can keep the vehicle in lane
automatically, or brake the vehicle to a standstill if required. The system can therefore actively help
to prevent an accident.
Emergency Assist is an extension of the lane keeping system (Lane Assist), and combines these
functions with the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). Please therefore read both these chapters and
observe the information about the system limits and warnings.
Description
If there is no driver activity, Emergency Assist prompts the driver to take control of the vehicle again
by visual and acoustic warnings and by braking jolts.
If the driver remains inactive, the system automatically controls the accelerator, brake and steering
to slow the vehicle down and keep it in lane t stopping distance, the system
decelerates the vehicle to a complete stop and switches on the electronic parking brake
automatically Operating the electronic parking brake
When Emergency Assist is actively controlling the vehicle, the hazard warning lights are switched on
and the vehicle performs slight snaking movements within its lane to warn other road users.
The hazard warning lights can be deactivated by pressing the accelerator or brake, by making a
steering intervention or, depending on the situation, by pressing the button for the hazard warning
lights.
When Emergency Assist has been triggered, the system is not available again until the ignition has
been switched off and then back on.
Prerequisites
The lane keeping system and ACC are switched on.
The selector lever is in position D/S or in the Tiptronic gate.
The system has detected a lane marking on both the right and left sides of the vehicle Fig. 123
Switching Emergency Assist on and off
Emergency Assist is activated automatically when the lane keeping system Driving with the lane
keeping systemis switched on.

WARNING
The intelligent technology used in Emergency Assist cannot overcome the laws of physics, and
functions only within the limits of the system. The driver is always responsible for controlling the
vehicle.
Adapt your speed and distance from the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic
conditions.
Your hands should always be on the steering wheel so that you can steer at any time.
Emergency Assist cannot always prevent accidents and serious injuries on its own.
