Driver support systems
The vehicle is equipped with a number of driver support systems that can provide thedriver with active or passive assistance in var-ious situations.
The systems can, for example, help the driver:
maintain a set speed
maintain a set time interval to the vehicle ahead
help prevent a collision by warning thedriver and applying the brakes
park the vehicle.
Some of the systems are standard and othersare options. This also varies from market tomarket.

Speed-dependent steering wheel resistance Speed-dependent power steering increases the steering wheel resistance in pace withthe vehicle's speed, which can help give thedriver an enhanced feeling of control and sta-bility. Steering is stiffer on highways. Whenparking and at low speeds, it will be easier tomove the steering wheel.
Reduced powerIn rare situations, the power steering may need to work at reduced power and the steer-ing wheel may then feel more difficult tomove. This may happen when the powersteering becomes too hot and needs to betemporarily cooled. It can also happen if thereis a disturbance in power supply.
If there is reduced power, the message
Power steering
Assistance temporarily reduced
and this symbol are
shown in the instrument panel.
While the power steering is working at reduced power, the driver support functionsand systems with steering assistance are notavailable.

limitations Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 47
) may have
limited functionality in certain situations.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadsAdaptive Cruise Control is primarily intended to be driven on flat roads. The function maynot be able to maintain the correct time inter-val to the vehicle ahead when driving downsteep hills. The driver should be extra attentiveand prepared to apply the brakes. Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control if the vehi- cle is carrying a heavy load or towing a trailer.
Drive mode unavailableThe Off Road drive mode cannot be selected
if Adaptive Cruise Control is activated.
WARNING
This is not a collision avoidance sys- tem. The driver is always responsibleand must intervene if the system failsto detect a vehicle ahead.
The function does not brake for peopleor animals and does not brake for smallvehicles, such as bikes and motorcy-cles. Similarly, it does not brake for lowtrailers, oncoming, slow-moving or sta-tionary vehicles and objects.
Do not use the function in demandingsituations, such as in city traffic, atintersections, on slippery surfaces,with a lot of water or slush on the road,in heavy rain/snow, in poor visibility, onwinding roads, or on on/off ramps.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain generallimitations.

standby mode
Pilot Assist can be deactivated and put in standby mode. This may happen automati-cally or be due to driver intervention.
Standby mode means that the function is selected in the instrument panel but not acti-vated. In standby mode, Pilot Assist will notregulate the speed or distance to the vehicleahead or provide steering assistance.
Standby mode due to action by the
driver
Pilot Assist will be deactivated and put instandby mode if any of the following occurs:
The brakes are applied.
The gear selector is moved to
N.
A turn signal is used for more than1 minute.
The vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute.
Automatic standby mode
WARNING
With automatic standby mode, the driver is warned by an acoustic signal and a mes-sage on the instrument panel.
The driver must then regulate vehicle speed, apply the brakes if necessary,and maintain a safe distance to othervehicles.
The function may automatically go intostandby mode if one of the following occurs. One of the systems that Pilot Assist isdependent on stops working, such as Electronic Stability Control 60
.
The driver's hands are not on the steering wheel.

Drive modes when using time interval to vehicle
The driver can choose different drive modes to determine how driver support shouldmaintain a time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Settings are made using the DRIVE MODE
controls. Select one of the following:

Eco - Driver support will focus on provid-
ing good fuel economy, which will increase the time interval to the vehicleahead.

Comfort - Driver support will focus on fol-
lowing the set time interval to the vehicle ahead as smoothly as possible.

Dynamic* - Driver support will focus on
following the set time interval to the vehi- cle ahead more exactly, which could meanfaster acceleration and heavier braking.

Auto-hold braking with driver support
The driver support functions Adaptive Cruise Control * and Pilot Assist * have a special brake
function in slow traffic and while stationary. In certain situations, the parking brake will beapplied to keep the vehicle at a standstill.
Braking function in slow traffic and at a standstill
In slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stopped at a traffic light, driving will resumeautomatically if the vehicle is stopped for lessthan approx. 3 seconds. If it takes more than 3seconds for the vehicle ahead to begin movingagain, the driver support function will go intostandby mode and the auto-hold brake func-tion will activate.
–The function can be reactivated by:
Pressing the
button on the steer-
ing wheel keypad.
Pressing the accelerator pedal.
> The function will resume following the vehicle ahead if it begins to move within approx. 6 seconds.
WARNING
A noticeable increase in speed may follow when the speed is resumed with the
steering wheel button.

WARNING
The driver support system only issues a warning for obstacles detected by its radarsensor – thus, a warning may come after adelay or not at all.
Never wait for a warning or assistance. Apply the brakes when necessary.
NOTE
Driver support can keep the vehicle sta- tionary for no more than 5 minutes – afterthat time the parking brake is applied andthe function is deactivated. The parking brake must be released before driver support can be reactivated.
Deactivation of the Auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, auto-hold will be deacti- vated when the vehicle is at a standstill andthe function will go into standby mode. This means that the brakes will be released and the vehicle could begin to roll. The driver mustactively apply the brakes to keep the vehiclestationary. 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 position.
The driver puts Adaptive Cruise Control or Pilot Assist in standby mode.
Auto Activate Parking BrakeThe parking brake will be applied if the func-tion is keeping the vehicle stationary using thebrakes and:
The driver opens the door or unbuckleshis/her seat belt.
The function has kept the vehicle at astandstill for more than approx. 5 minutes.
The brakes overheat.
The driver switches off the engine.

Lane Keeping Aid
Lane Keeping Aid (LKA 69
) is designed to
actively steer the vehicle on freeways, high- ways and other major roads to help the driverreduce the risk of the vehicle unintentionallyveering out of the lane.
Lake Keeping Aid steers the vehicle back into the lane and/or alerts the driver using vibra-tions in the steering wheel. Lane Keeping Aid is active at speeds between 65–200 km/h (40–125 mph) on roads withclearly visible traffic lane marker lines. On narrow roads, the function may be unavail- able and go into standby mode. The functionwill become available again when the roadbecomes sufficiently wide.
A camera monitors the road/traffic lane's marker lines.

The vehicle is parked very far into a parking space.
In a diagonal parking space, Cross Traffic Alert may be completely "blind" on one side of your vehicle.
Blind zone.
The function's field of vision.
However, as you back your vehicle slowly out of a parking space, CTA's field of vision changes in relation to the obstructing vehicle/object and its blind zone is reduced.
Examples of further limitations

The
auto brake subfunction only detects
vehicles in motion and may therefore not
"see" and brake for e.g. stationary obsta- cles, a cyclists or a pedestrian.
Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensorsmay reduce functionality and prevent thesystem from providing warnings.
CTA is automatically deactivated if atrailer, bicycle holder or similar is con-nected to the vehicle's electrical system.
For CTA to function effectively, bicycleholders, luggage racks or similar shouldnot be mounted on the vehicle's towbar.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's radar sen- sors, which have certain general limita-tions.

Park Assist (PAS 102
) behaves differently
depending on which part of the vehicle is approaching an obstacle.
Front camera
The warning signal has a continuous tone when the obstacle is less than approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from thevehicle.
The Park Assist system's front sensors are automatically activated when the engine isstarted. They are active at speedsbelow 10 km/h (6 mph). The distance monitored extends approx. 80 cm (2.5 ft) in front of the vehicle.
NOTE
The Park Assist system is deactivated when the parking brake is used or when P
is selected on vehicles with automatictransmission.
CAUTION
When installing auxiliary lights: Make sure these do not obscure the sensors – theauxiliary lights could be perceived as anobstacle.
Back
The warning signal has a continuous tone when the obstacle is less than approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from thevehicle.

Park Assist limitations Park Assist (PAS104
) may not be able to
detect all conditions in all situations and func- tionality may therefore be limited in certaincases.
The driver should be aware of the following limitations for Park Assist:
WARNING
The parking sensors have dead/blind spots where objects cannot bedetected.
Pay particular attention to people andanimals near the vehicle.
Bear in mind that the front end of thevehicle may swing out towards oncom-ing traffic during the parking maneuver.
WARNING
Be extra cautious when reversing if this symbol isshown when a trailer, bikecarrier or similar isattached and electricallyconnected to the vehicle. The symbol indicates that
the rear parking assist sensors are deacti-
vated and will not warn of any obstacles.
CAUTION
Objects such as chains, thin and glossy poles or low obstacles may end up in the"signal shadow" and then go temporarilyundetected by the sensors – the pulsatingtone may then unexpectedly stop insteadof becoming a constant tone as expected. The sensors cannot detect high objects, such as protruding ramps. In such situations, pay extra attention and maneuver/drive the vehicle veryslowly or stop the current parkingmaneuver – there may be a high risk ofdamage to the vehicle or other objectssince information from the sensors isnot always reliable in such situations.
CAUTION
In some circumstances, the Park Assist System may produce false warnings due toexternal sound sources with the sameultrasonic frequencies as those the systemworks with. Examples of such sources are horns, wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaustnoise from motorcycles, etc.
NOTE
When a trailer hitch is configured with the vehicle electrical system, the trailer hitchprotrusion is included when the functionmeasures the distance to objects behindthe vehicle.
