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.

Hill Start Assist
The function for assisting when starting the vehicle on inclines (HSA 4
) helps prevent the
vehicle from rolling backward when starting on an uphill gradient. When backing up a hill,HSA helps prevent the vehicle from rollingforward.
The function retains pressure from the brake pedal in the brake system for several secondsafter the brake pedal has been released. This temporary braking effect is released after a few seconds or when the driver begins driv-ing. Hill Start Assist is activated when the vehicle is stopped on steep inclines. The function isavailable even when the Auto-hold brake func-tion is switched off.

Braking assist after a collision
In a collision in which the activation level is reached for the pyrotechnic seat belt tension-ers or airbags, or if a collision with a large ani-mal is detected, the vehicle's brakes will beautomatically activated. This function isintended to help prevent or reduce the effectsof any subsequent collision.
After a serious collision, it may no longer be possible to control and steer the vehicle. Inorder to avoid or mitigate a possible furthercollision with a vehicle or an object in the vehi-cle's path, the brake assist system is activatedautomatically to help stop the vehicle safely. If braking is not appropriate, e.g. if there is a risk of being hit by passing traffic, the drivercan override the system by depressing theaccelerator pedal. This function assumes that the brake system is intact after a collision.

Transmission
The transmission is part of the vehicle's drive- line (power transmission) between the engineand the drive wheels. The function of thetransmission is to change gears dependingon speed and power needs.
The vehicle has an 8-speed automatic trans- mission. The number of gears allows theengine's torque and power band to be effec-tively utilized. Two of the gears are overdrive gears that save fuel when driving at a constant engine speed.Both the gear selector and the steering wheelpaddles can be used to shift up or down man-ually. The selected gear selector position willbe displayed in the instrument panel.

Eco drive mode
Eco drive mode can help make driving more
fuel-efficient and eco-friendly.
Use this mode to save fuel and promote eco- friendly driving. When
Eco mode is activated, the following
characteristics are modified:
The automatic transmission's shifting points.
Engine control and accelerator pedalresponse.
Eco Coast functionality is activated andengine braking is disabled when the accel-erator pedal is released at speedsbetween 65 and 140 km/h(40 and 87 mph).
Some of the climate system settings willbe reduced or switched off.
Information will be shown in the ECOgauge in the instrument panel to help pro-mote more eco-friendly and economicaldriving.
Coast function Eco CoastEco Coast essentially deactivates engine brak-ing, allowing the vehicle's kinetic energy to beused to roll greater distances. When the driverreleases the accelerator pedal, the transmis-sion is automatically disengaged from theengine. Engine speed is reduced to idlingspeed to reduce fuel consumption. This function is most effective in driving situa-tions where the vehicle can roll freely for along distance e.g. on roads with slight down-grades or when a decrease in speed is antici-pated such as when approaching an area witha lower speed limit.
Activating Eco Coast
The function is activated when the accelerator pedal is fully released and the following condi-tions are met:
Eco drive mode is activated.
The gear selector is in
D.
The vehicle's speed is approximately 65-140 km/h (40-87 mph).
The gradient of the downgrade is less thanapproximately 6%.
COASTING will be displayed in the instrument
panel when Eco Coast is being used.

deactivating
Eco drive mode in Function
view. It is possible to roll short distances even with- out Eco Coast in order to help conserve fuel.However, for the best fuel economy, EcoCoast should be activated and used to rolllonger distances.
Cruise control Eco CruiseWhen cruise control is activated in the Ecodrive mode, the vehicle's acceleration and deceleration will be slower than in other drivemodes to help further conserve fuel. Becauseof this, the vehicle's actual speed may beslightly above or below the set speed.
On a level road, the vehicle's actual speedmay differ from the set speed when cruisecontrol is active and the vehicle is coast-ing.
On a steep uphill gradient, the vehicle'sspeed is reduced until the transmissiondownshifts. Reduced acceleration is theninitiated in order to reach the set speed.
On a downhill gradient in which the vehi- cle is coasting, the vehicle's actual speed may be slightly above or below the setspeed. The function uses engine brakingto keep the set speed. If necessary, thenormal brakes are also applied.
