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

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

If the system is switched on but

a speed above 5 km/h (with automatic
transmission) or above 30 km/h (with
manual transmission) to resume the
stored speed.

after driving off. Note that automatic
braking is disabled during usage of
the accelerator pedal.

stopped for a longer time and then
begins to move forward, the green
illuminated vehicle ahead control
