Driving and operating
This speed is the new value for the
cruise control.
Exceeding the set speed
It is always possible to drive faster
than the selected set speed by
depressing the accelerator pedal.
When the accelerator pedal is
released, the vehicle returns to the
desired distance if a slower vehicle is
ahead. Otherwise it returns to the
stored speed.
Once the system is activated,
adaptive cruise control decelerates or
brakes if it detects a vehicle ahead,
which is slower or closer than the
desired following distance.
If the programmed speed setting is
exceeded, the display of the speed
setting disappears and a message
"Cruise control suspended" is
displayed until the accelerator pedal
is released.
9 Warning
Accelerating by the driver
deactivates automatic braking by
the system. This is indicated as a
pop-up warning in the Driver
Information Centre.

control on vehicles with automatic
transmission
Full speed range adaptive cruise
control will maintain a following

drive off automatically without driver
action. If necessary, press RES/+ or
the accelerator pedal to resume

illuminated vehicle ahead control
indicator A will flash and a warning

to resume adaptive cruise control. If
