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.
ABS prevents locking of the
wheels during braking.
The vehicle maintains its steer-
ing power even during full brake
applications, which increases
the active safety.
ABS is operational every time
you start the engine.
Situations which the ABS can-
not operate sufficiently:
When entering a curve at an
excessively high rate of speed
In this case, even if the ABS oper-
ates, it cannot ope rate sufficiently
to avoid a possible dangerous situ-
ation. The driver is solely responsi-
ble for understanding their
surroundings and d riving at a safe
speed.
When you apply the brakes rap-
idly, the system automatically
produces the greatest possible
braking force boost. It reduces
the braking distance to a mini-
mum during emergency stop.
This system utilizes all of the
capabilities provided by the Anti-
lock Brake System ABS.
Do not reduce the pressure on
the brake pedal for the duration
of the emergency stop.
In combination with Dynamic
radar cruise control, this system
ensures that the brakes respond
even more rapidly when braking
in critical situations.

This system supports driving off
on uphill grades.
1Hold the vehicle in place with
the foot brake.
2 Release the foot brake and
drive off without delay.
After the foot brake is released,
the vehicle is held in place for
approx. 2 seconds.
Depending on the vehicle load-
ing, the vehicle may roll back
slightly.
Within the physical limits, the
system helps to keep the vehicle
on a steady course by reducing
engine speed and by braking
the individual wheels.
VSC detects the following unsta-
ble driving conditions, for
instance:
 Fishtailing, which can lead to
oversteering. 
Loss of traction of the front
wheels, which can lead to
understeering.

WARNING
The system cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal
judgment in assessing the traffic
situation. 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 the surrounding traf-
fic situation closely, be ready to
take over steering and braking at
any time, and actively intervene
where appropriate.
WARNING
When driving with a roof load, for
instance with roof-mounted lug-
gage rack, the vehicle's center of
gravity is higher, which increases
the risk of the vehicle tipping in
critical driving sit uations. There is
a risk of accidents or risk of dam-
age to property. Do not deactivate
VSC Vehicle Stability Control Sys-
tem when driving with roof load.

CONTROLSWith the proper equipment, the
value of the selected speed is
briefly displayed digitally.
Some system information can
also be displayed in the
Head-up Display.
The desired speed is also main-
tained downhill.
The speed may not be main-
tained on uphill grades if the
engine power is insufficient.
*: 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

Drive attentively, and react to
the current traffic situation. If
necessary, intervene actively,
for instance by braking, steering
or evading.
The desired speed is also main-
tained downhill. The speed may
not be maintained on uphill
grades if the engine power is
insufficient.
When the systems in the vehicle
e.g., Speed Limit Info, detect a
change of the speed limit along
the route, this new speed value
ca be applied for the following
systems:
Manual Speed Limiter.
 Cruise Control.
 Dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range.
The speed value is suggested
as the new desired speed to be
applied. To apply the speed
value, the corresponding system
must be activated.
