WARNING
If Adaptive Cruise Control is in standby mode, the driver must intervene andregulate both speed and distance tothe vehicle ahead.
If the vehicle comes too close to a vehi-cle ahead when Adaptive Cruise Con-trol is in standby mode, the driver canbe warned of the short distance by the Distance Alert
* function.

standby
mode
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 44
) can be deac-
tivated and put in standby mode. This may happen automatically or be due to driverintervention.
Standby mode means that the function is selected in the instrument panel but not acti-vated. In standby mode, Adaptive Cruise Con-trol will not regulate speed or distance to thevehicle ahead.
Standby mode due to action by the
driver
Adaptive Cruise Control will be deactivatedand put in standby mode if any of the follow-ing occurs:
The brakes are applied.
The gear selector is moved to
N.
The vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute.
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.
WARNING
If Adaptive Cruise Control is in standby mode, the driver must intervene andregulate both speed and distance tothe vehicle ahead.
If the vehicle comes too close to a vehi-cle ahead when Adaptive Cruise Con-trol is in standby mode, the driver canbe warned of the short distance by the Distance Alert
* function.
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 Adaptive Cruise Control is dependent on stops working,

).
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 and radar unit is covered by snow or heavy rain (the camera lens/radarwaves are blocked).
Your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and ACC cannot determine if thevehicle ahead is stationary or if it isanother object, e.g. a speed bump.
Your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns sothat ACC no longer has a vehicle to follow.

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.

Steering assistanceThe color of the steering wheel symbol indicates thecurrent status of steeringassistance: • GREEN indicates that steering assistance is active
• GRAY (as shown in illustration) indicates thatsteering assistance is deactivated.
Pilot Assist's steering assistance is based on monitoring the direction of the vehicle aheadand the traffic lane's side marker lines. Thedriver can override Pilot Assist's steering rec-ommendations at any time and steer inanother direction, e.g. to change lanes or avoidobstacles on the road. If the camera/radar sensor cannot detect the lane's side marker lines or if Pilot Assist isunable for some other reason to clearly inter-pret the lane, Pilot Assist will temporarilydeactivate steering assistance until it can onceagain interpret the lane markings. However,the speed and distance warnings will remainactive. The driver will be alerted by slightvibrations in the steering wheel that the func-tion has been temporarily deactivated.
WARNING
Pilot Assist is deactivated automatically and resumes working without prior notice.
In curves and forks in the roadPilot Assist is designed to interact with the driver. The driver should never wait for steer-ing assistance from Pilot Assist, but insteadshould always be ready to increase his or herown steering efforts, particularly in curves. When the vehicle is approaching an off-ramp or a fork in the road, the driver should steertoward the desired lane so that Pilot Assistcan detect the desired direction of travel.
Hands on the steering wheelPilot Assist only functions if the driver's handsare on the steering wheel. It is also importantfor the driver to always continue to be activeand alert when driving since Pilot Assist isunable to read all situations and may togglebetween off and on without prior warning.
If Pilot Assist detects that thedriver's hands are not on thesteering wheel, the systemwill provide a symbol and atext message in the instru-ment panel to instruct thedriver to actively steer the
vehicle.
If the driver's hands are still detected on the steering wheel after a few seconds havepassed, the instructions to actively steer thevehicle will be repeated, accompanied by anaudible signal. If Pilot Assist still does not detect the driver'shands on the steering wheel after a few moreseconds have passed, the audible signal willbecome intense and the steering function willswitch off. Pilot Assist must then be reactiva- ted by pressing the
button on the steering
wheel.
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.

When drivingIn the following illustration, Road Sign Infor- mation (RSI 56
) indicates that the maximum
permitted speed is 130 km/h (80 mph).
The previous illustration shows that Pilot Assist is set to maintain a speed of 110 km/h (68 mph) and that there is no target vehicleahead to follow. Pilot Assist will not provide any steering assis- tance because it cannot detect the lane's sidemarking lines.
