180 Driving and operating
Accelerate to the desired speed and
turn thumb wheel to SET/-, the
current speed is stored and
maintained.
The adaptive cruise control symbol
C, the following distance setting and
set speed are indicated in the Driver
Information Centre.
The accelerator pedal can be
released. Adaptive cruise control
remains activated during gear
shifting.
Overriding 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.
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 or by the
adaptive cruise control symbol
turning blue.
Take over current speed
If the accelerator pedal is pressed,
the current vehicle speed is taken
over as stored speed. This is also
valid, if the current vehicle speed is
lower than the Set Speed.
Increase or reduce speed
The preset speed can be changed by
moving thumb wheel to RES/+ to
increase or SET/- to decrease the
speed. Move thumb wheel repeatedly
to change speed in small steps, move
and hold to change speed in large
steps.
Resume stored speed
If the system is switched on but
inactive and a speed was stored
before, turn thumb wheel to RES/+ at
a speed above 3 mph (with automatic
transmission) or above 19 mph (with
manual transmission) to resume the
stored speed.
Full speed range adaptive cruise
control on vehicles with automatic
transmission
Full speed range adaptive cruise
control will maintain a following
distance behind a detected vehicle
and slow your vehicle to a stop behind
that vehicle.
