This chapter describes all stan-
dard, country-specific and
optional features offered with
the series. It also describes fea-
tures and functions that are not
necessarily available in your
vehicle, e.g., due to the selected
options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When
using these functions and sys-
tems, the applicable laws and
regulations must be observed.
*: if equipped
Using this system, a desired
speed can be adjusted using the
buttons on the steering wheel.
The system maintains the
desired speed. The system
accelerates and brakes auto-
matically as needed.
The system can be activated
starting at 20 mph/30 km/h.
Depending on the vehicle set-
tings, the characteristics of the Cruise Control may change.

WARNING
The system cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal
judgment in assessing the traffic
conditions. Based on the limits of
the system, it cannot inde-
pendently react to all traffic situa-
tions. There is a risk of accident.
Adjust driving style to traffic condi-
tions. Watch traffic closely and
actively intervene where appropri-
ate.
WARNING
The use of the system can lead to
an increased risk of accidents in
the following situations, for
instance:
●On winding roads.
●In heavy traffic.
●On slippery roads, in fog, snow,
or wet conditions, or on a loose
road surface.
There is a risk of accidents or risk
of damage to property. Only use
the system if driving at constant
speed is possible.
WARNING
The desired speed can be incor-
rectly adjusted or called up by
mistake. There is a risk of an acci-
dent. Adjust the desired speed to
the traffic conditions. Watch traf-
fic closely and actively intervene
where appropriate.

*: if equipped
Using this system, a desired
speed and a distance to a vehi-
cle ahead can be adjusted using
the buttons on the steering
wheel.
The system maintains the
desired speed on clear roads.
For this purpose, the vehicle
accelerates or brakes automati-
cally.
If a vehicle is driving ahead of
you, the system adjusts the
speed of your vehicle so that the
set distance to the vehicle
ahead is maintained. The speed
is adjusted as far as the given
situation allows.
Depending on the vehicle set-
tings, the characteristics of the
Cruise Control may change.
The distance can be adjusted in
several steps. For safety rea-
sons, it depends on the respec-
tive speed.
If the vehicle ahead of you
brakes to a halt, and then pro-
ceeds to drive again within a
brief period, the system is able to detect this within the given
system limits.

WARNING
The system cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal
judgment in assessing the traffic
conditions. Based on the limits of
the system, it cannot inde-
pendently react to all traffic situa-
tions. There is a risk of accident.
Adjust driving style to traffic condi-
tions. Watch traffic closely and
actively intervene where apaprk-
ing sensorspropriate.
WARNING
An unsecured vehicle can begin
to move and possibly roll away.
There is a risk of an accident.
Before exiting, secure the vehicle
against rolling.
In order to ensure that the vehicle
is secured against rolling away,
follow the following:
●Set the parking brake.
●On uphill grades or on a down-
hill slope, turn the front wheels
in the direction of the curb.
●On uphill grades or on a down-
hill slope, also secure the vehi-
cle, for instance with a wheel
chock.
WARNING
The desired speed can be incor-
rectly adjusted or called up by
mistake. There is a risk of an acci-
dent. Adjust the desired speed to
the traffic conditions. Watch traf-
fic closely and actively intervene
where appropriate.
2043-1. CONTROLS
The system is controlled by the
following sensors:
• Cameras behind the wind-shield.
• Front radar sensor.
Additional information:
Sensors of the vehicle, refer to
page 40.
The system is best used on
well-constructed roads.
The system is functional at
speeds beginning at approx. 20
mph/30 km/h.
The maximum speed that can
be set is limited and, e.g.,
depends on the vehicle and the
vehicle equipment version.
The system can also be acti-
vated when stationary.
WARNING
Risk of accident due to too high
speed differences to other vehi-
cles, for instance in the following
situations:
●When fast approaching a slowly
moving vehicle.
There is a risk of injuries or dan-
ger to life. Watch traffic closely
and actively intervene where
appropriate.
●Vehicle suddenly swerving into
own lane.
●When fast approaching stand-
ing vehicles.

■Pathway lines Pathway lines help you to esti-
mate the space required when
parking and maneuvering on
level roads.
Pathway lines depend on the
steering angle and are continu-
ously adjusted to the steering
wheel movements.
■Turning radius lines
Turning radius lines can only be
superimposed on the camera
image together with pathway
lines.
Turning radius lines show the
course of the smallest possible
turning radius on a level road.
Only one turning radius line is
displayed after the steering
wheel is turned past a certain
angle.
■Parking using pathway and
turning radius lines

the red turning radius line
leads to within the limits of
the parking space.

2544-1. DRIVING TIPS
When visibility is poor due to
fog, even if it is daytime, turn the
low beam headlights on to make
your vehicle more visible to
other vehicles, etc. Drive with
caution at a low speed, using
the centerline, guardrails, tail-
lights of a preceding vehicle,
etc., as guide.When the vehicle is being blown
by crosswinds, drive at a lower
speed and grip the steering
wheel stronger than normal.
The vehicle is especially sus-
ceptible to crosswinds when
exiting a tunnel or underpass,
when driving on a bridge or
embankment, or when passing
or being passed by a truck or
other large vehicle.
During a rain storm or when
the road surface is wet, the
road surface may be slippery
and visibility may be reduced.
In this case, turn the low
beam headlights on to make
your vehicle more visible to
Mobile communication
devices in the vehicle
WARNING
Vehicle electronics and mobile
phones can influence one
another. There is radiation due to
the transmission operations of
mobile phones. There is a risk of
injury or risk of damage to prop-
erty. If possible, in the car's inte-
rior use only mobile phones with
direct connections to an exterior
antenna in order to exclude
mutual interference and deflect
the radiation from the car's inte-
r i o r.
