Driving and operating
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.
Increase speed
With adaptive cruise control active,
hold thumb wheel turned to RES/+:
speed increases continuously in large
increments, or activate repeatedly
RES/+: speed increases in small
increments.
If the vehicle is driven with adaptive
cruise control active much faster than
the desired speed, e.g. after
depressing the accelerator pedal,
then the current speed can be stored
and maintained by turning the thumb
wheel to SET/-.
Reduce speed
With adaptive cruise control active,
hold thumb wheel turned to SET/-:
speed decreases continuously in
large increments, or activate
repeatedly SET/-: speed decreases in
small increments.
If the vehicle is driven with adaptive
cruise control active much slower
than the desired speed, e.g. because
of a slower vehicle ahead, then the
current speed can be stored and
maintained by turning the thumb
wheel to SET/-.
Resume stored speed
If the system is switched on but
inactive, then turn thumb wheel to
RES/+ at a speed above 25 km/h 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 gap
behind a detected vehicle and slow
your vehicle to a stop behind that
vehicle.
When the vehicle ahead drives away
within two minutes, turn thumb wheel
to RES/+ or operate the accelerator
pedal to a speed of 10 km/h to resume
full speed range adaptive cruise
control.
If the stopped vehicle ahead begins to
move forward and full speed range
adaptive cruise control has not
resumed, the green illuminated
vehicle ahead control indicator A will
flash and a warning chime will sound
as a reminder that the vehicle ahead
is pulling away.
