navigation data of the infotainment system.
Proactive speed adjustment is available de-
pending on the equipment, although not in all
countries.
WARNING
The proactive speed adjustment smart
technology cannot overcome the limits im-
posed by the laws of physics and it only
works within the limits of the system. Never
allow the enhanced convenience of this
function induce you to take any risk that
compromises safety. If used negligently or
involuntarily, it may cause serious acci-
dents and injuries. The system is not a re-
placement for driver awareness.
Always adapt your speed to suit visibility,
●
weather, road and traffic conditions.
Always pay attention to traffic and al-
●
ways keep the vehicle environment in mind.
Always be prepared to adjust the speed
●
yourself. If the traffic signal detection sys-
tem is not working properly or the naviga-
tion data is not updated, the speed may
change unexpectedly and suddenly or may
not adapt to the current traffic situation. In
addition, the speed adjusted by the system
may not suit your driving style.
Driver assistance systems
Always be prepared to adjust the speed
●
yourself. If you drive without any active gui-
ded route, if you leave the route calculated
by the navigation system or if the position
of the vehicle cannot be determined cor-
and the
rectly because the GPS does not provide
accurate data, the speed may change un-
expectedly and suddenly or may not adapt
to the current traffic situation.
Always use current navigation data.
●
Always take into account the maximum
●
speed allowed. In the case of speed limita-
tions that are not included in the navigation
data, the maximum permitted speed may
be exceeded.

ACC relevant to safety
Limitations of the proactive speed
adjustment
In addition to the limitations of the traffic sig-
nal detection system
limitations of the ACC, proactive speed ad-
justment has the following limitations inherent
to the system:
Proactive speed adjustment only recogni-
●
ses traffic signals that show a speed limita-
tion. The proactive speed adjustment does
not take into account, above all, the rules on
priority of passage or traffic lights.
On roads that are not included in the navi-
●
gation data, or that are included with little
accuracy, proactive speed adjustment is not
available.
If a speed limitation is notified based on the
●
navigation data without it being detected by
the traffic signal detection system, the indica-
ted speed will be adjusted to the speed that
was saved the last time.
Proactive speed adjustment is not available
●
for speed limitations below approx. 20 km/h
(approx. 15 mph). In this case, a relevant mes-
sage is displayed on the instrument panel
screen.
