Hilly Condition and Trailer TowUsage
You should select a lower gear when thesystem is active in situations such asprolonged downhill driving on steepgrades, for example in mountainous areas.The system needs additional enginebraking in these situations to reduce theload on the vehicle’s regular brake systemto prevent it from overheating.
Note:An audible alarm sounds and thesystem shuts down if it applies brakes foran extended period of time. This allows thebrakes to cool. The system functionsnormally again after the brakes cool.
Note:When towing with adaptive cruisecontrol, switch on Tow/Haul mode.
Switching Adaptive Cruise ControlOff
Press and release the buttonwhen the system is in standbymode, or switch the ignition off.
Note:The set speed and gap setting iserased when you switch the system off.

Brake support: Helps reduce the impactspeed by preparing the brakes for rapidbraking. The system does notautomatically apply the brakes. If you pressthe brake pedal, the system could applyadditional braking up to maximum brakingforce, even if you lightly press the brakepedal.
Active braking: May activate if the systemdetermines that a collision is imminent.The system may help the driver reduceimpact damage or avoid the crashcompletely.
Note:If you perceive pre-collision assistalerts as being too frequent, then you canreduce the alert sensitivity, though themanufacturer recommends using thehighest sensitivity setting where possible.Setting lower sensitivity would lead to fewerand later system warnings.
Distance Indication and Alert
Provides the driver with a graphicalindication of the time gap to otherpreceding vehicles traveling in the samedirection. The distance indication and alertscreen in the instrument cluster displayshows one of the following graphics.
If the time gap to a preceding vehicle issmall, a red visual indication displays.
Adjusting the Pre-Collision AssistSettings
You can adjust the following settings byusing the instrument cluster displaycontrols. See General Information (page71).
•You can change alert and distancealert sensitivity to one of three possiblesettings.
•You can switch distance indication andalert on or off.
•If required, you can switch activebraking on or off.

AIR SUSPENSION
Note:Do not operate your vehicle withoutair in the suspension springs. Operating yourvehicle without air in the suspension springsdamages the suspension, degrades rideperformance and may cause propertydamage.
The air suspension system automaticallyadjusts to different loads to maintain aconstant frame height, allows for ease ofvehicle loading, provides improved vehicleride, and increased driver comfort.
Air Suspension Dump Button
Note:The suspension dumps air when theignition is in the accessory or on position,but fills only when the ignition is in the onposition.
A button located on the instrument panelcontrols the system. It operates only whenthe ignition is in the accessory or onposition and the air tanks have sufficientpressure to fill the air springs. When youturn off the ignition, the suspensionremains in whatever state it was last set.
Pressing and holding the button for twoseconds exhausts air from the air springs,lowering the frame for loading. Pressingand holding the button for two secondsfills the air springs so your vehicle remainsat normal ride height.
System Indicator Light
The air suspension indicator lightilluminates when using the button torelease air pressure in the rear air springs.Never drive your vehicle when the warninglamp is illuminated and there is low (or no)air pressure in the springs.
Connecting and Disconnecting aTrailer with Air Suspension and AirSuspension Dump Button
When connecting to a trailer:
•Press and hold the button for twoseconds to exhaust air from the airsuspension system.
•Press and hold the button for twoseconds, and then raise the landinggear after making the connection tothe trailer.
When disconnecting the trailer:
•Lower the landing gear, and then pressand hold the button for two seconds.
•Disconnect the brake hoses, trailer-sideand rear light connectors, then pull therelease lever on the fifth wheel.
You must fill the air springs beforeoperating with a trailer or operating in thebobtail mode.
Suspension Conversions
WARNING: When operating aloaded vehicle, the driver must keep alladjustable axles on the ground at alltimes, supporting their share of thevehicle’s load. Failure to do so canoverload other axles, tires, wheels,springs, steering components, brakesand frames, resulting in early componentfailure, loss of vehicle control, possibleproperty damage and personal injury.
