Curve Speed Assist (CSA) *64
Curve Speed Assist can help the driver
reduce speed before sharp turns if the preset speed for the driver support function Adap- tive Cruise Control * or Pilot Assist * is deter-
mined to be too high.
As the function reduces the vehicle's speed, this symbolwill be displayed in the instru-ment panel.
This assessment is performed using informa- tion from map data in the vehicle's navigation system, Sensus Navigation *. After the turn,
the vehicle will resume the previously set speed. The driver can cancel the function at any time by braking or using the accelerator pedal.
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate drivingand help make it safer – it cannot han-dle all situations in all traffic, weatherand road conditions.
The driver is advised to read all sec-tions in the Owner's Manual about thisfunction to learn of its limitations,which the driver must be aware ofbefore using the function.
Driver support functions are not a sub-stitute for the driver's attention andjudgment. The driver is always respon-sible for ensuring the vehicle is drivenin a safe manner, at the appropriatespeed, with an appropriate distance toother vehicles, and in accordance withcurrent traffic rules and regulations.

Passing assistance *
Passing assistance can assist the driver when passing other vehicles. The function can be used with Adaptive Cruise Control * or Pilot
Assist *.
When Adaptive Cruise Control or Pilot Assist is following another vehicle and you indicatethat you intend to pass that vehicle by using the turn signal 68
, the system will begin accel-
erating 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 vehicleapproaches 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 passinganother vehicle, such as when a directionindicator is used to indicate a lane changeor before exiting to another road – the vehi-cle will then briefly accelerate.
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate drivingand help make it safer – it cannot han-dle all situations in all traffic, weatherand road conditions.

Using passing assistance Passing assistance can be used with Adap- tive Cruise Control * or Pilot Assist *. Several
conditions must be met for passing assis- tance to be possible.
In 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
must be high enough to
safely pass another vehicle.
To start passing assistance:
–Turn on the left turn signal.
> Passing assistance will start.

WARNING
The driver should be aware that if condi- tions suddenly change when using PassingAssistance, the function may implement anundesired acceleration in certain condi-tions. Some situations should be avoided, e.g. if: the vehicle is approaching an exit in the same direction as passing would nor-mally occur
the vehicle ahead slows before yourvehicle has had time to switch to thepassing lane
traffic in the passing lane slows down
Situations of this type can be avoided by temporarily putting Adaptive Cruise Controlor Pilot Assist in standby mode.

Collision risk warning from driver support
The driver support systems Adaptive Cruise Control * and Pilot Assist * can help alert the
driver if the distance to the vehicle ahead suddenly decreases to an unsafe distance.
Collision warning audible signal and symbol
Audible signal at risk of collision
Collision warning symbol
Camera/radar sensor distance monitoring
Adaptive Cruise Control and Pilot Assist use approx. 40% of the braking capacity. If a sit-uation requires more braking force than driversupport can provide, and if the driver does not apply the brakes, a warning light and audible warning signal will be activated to alert thedriver that immediate action is required.
WARNING
The driver support system only issues a warning for vehicles detected by its radarunit – thus, a warning may come after adelay or not at all. Never wait for a warning.Apply the brakes when necessary.
Collision warning symbol on the windshield
In vehicles equipped with a head-up display *,
a flashing warning symbol will be displayed on the windshield.
NOTE
Visual warnings on the windshield may be difficult to notice in cases of strong sun-light, reflections, extreme light contrasts,or if the driver is wearing sunglasses or isnot looking straight ahead.

Switching target vehicles with driver support
At certain speeds, vehicles with automatic transmissions and the driver support func- tions Adaptive Cruise Control * and Pilot
Assist * can switch target vehicles.
Switching target vehicles
If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be stationary traffic ahead.
When driver support is actively following another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h
(20 mph) and switches targets from a movingvehicle to a stationary vehicle, driver supportwill brake for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING
When driver support follows another vehi- cle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h
(20 mph) and changes target vehicle –from a moving vehicle to a stationary one –driver support will ignore the stationary
vehicle and instead accelerate to the storedspeed. The driver must then intervene and apply the brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching targets
Driver support disengages and goes into standby mode if:
your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and driver support cannot deter-mine if the target vehicle is stationary or ifit is another object, e.g. a speed bump.
your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns sothat driver support no longer has a vehicleto follow.

Adjusting set speed for driver support
It is possible to adjust set speeds for the cruise control, Adaptive Cruise Control * and
Pilot Assist * functions.
: Increases the set speed
: Reduces the set speed
Set speed
–Change a set speed by pressing the
(1) or (2) buttons briefly or by pressing
and holding them:
Brief
press: Each press changes the
speed in +/- 5 km/h (+/- 5 mph) incre- ments.
Press
and hold: Release the button
when the set speed indicator (3) hasmoved to the desired speed.
> The most recently set speed will be stored.
NOTE
For vehicles without Adaptive Cruise Con- trol *, speed instead increases by +/- 1km/h
(+/- 1 mph) each time the button is pressed.
Pressing the accelerator pedalIf speed is increased by depressing the accel- erator pedal while pressing the
(1) button
on the steering wheel, the vehicle's speed when the button is pressed will be stored asthe set speed. Temporarily increasing speed using the accel- erator pedal, e.g. when passing another vehi-cle, will not affect the setting. The vehicle willreturn to the set speed when the acceleratorpedal is released.
Possible speed
Automatic transmission
The driver support functions can follow another vehicle at speeds from a standstill upto 200 km/h (125 mph). Pilot Assist can provide steering assistance from near-stationary speeds up to 140 km/h(87 mph). The lowest speed that can be set is 30 km/h (20 mph). When following another vehicle,ACC can monitor that vehicle's speed andslow your own vehicle down to a standstill,but it is not possible to set speeds lower than30 km/h (20 mph).

Setting time interval to the vehicle ahead The time interval to the vehicle ahead can be set for the functions Adaptive Cruise Control *,
Pilot Assist * and Distance Alert *.
Different time intervals to the vehicle ahead can be selectedand are shown in the instru-ment panel as 1–5 horizontalbars. The more bars, thelonger the time interval. Onebar represents an interval of
approx. 1 second to the vehicle ahead. 5 barsrepresents approx. 3 seconds.
NOTE
When the symbol in the instrument panel shows a vehicle and a steering wheel, PilotAssist follows a vehicle ahead at a presettime interval. When only a steering wheel is shown, there is no vehicle ahead within a reasona-ble distance.
NOTE
When the symbol in the instrument panel shows two vehicles, Adaptive Cruise Con-trol is following the vehicle ahead at a pre-set time interval. When only one vehicle is shown, there is no vehicle ahead within a reasonable dis-tance.
Controls for setting a time interval.
Reduce the time interval
Increase the time interval
Distance indicator
–Press the (1) or (2) button to decrease or increase the time interval.
> The distance indicator (3) shows the current time interval. In order to help your vehicle follow the vehicle ahead as smoothly and comfortably as possi-ble, Adaptive Cruise Control allows the timeinterval to vary noticeably in certain situations.At low speeds, when the distance to the vehi-cle ahead is short, Adaptive Cruise Controlincreases the time interval slightly.
NOTE
The greater the vehicles' speed, the greater the distance between them fora set time interval.
Only use the time intervals permittedby local traffic regulations.
If driver support does not seem torespond with a speed increase whenactivated, it may be because the timeinterval to the vehicle ahead is shorterthan the set time interval.
WARNING
Only use a time interval suitable for the current traffic conditions.
The driver should be aware that shorttime intervals give them limited time toreact and act to any unforeseen trafficsituation.
