Vehicle features and options
This chapter describes all standard, country-
specific and optional features offered with
the series. It also describes features that are
not necessarily available in your vehicle,
e. g., due to the selected options or country
versions. This also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When using these
functions and systems, the applicable laws
and regulations must be observed.
Camera-based cruise control
Concept
Using this system, a desired speed and a
distance to a vehicle ahead can be adjusted
using the buttons on the steering wheel.
The system maintains the desired speed on
clear roads. For this purpose, the vehicle ac-
celerates or brakes automatically.
If a vehicle is driving ahead of you, the sys-
tem adjusts the speed of your vehicle so
that the set distance to the vehicle ahead is
maintained. The speed is adjusted as far as
the given situation allows.
The distance can be adjusted in several
steps. For safety reasons, it depends on the
respective speed.
General information
A camera on the interior mirror is used to
detect vehicles driving ahead.
Depending on the driving settings, the fea-
tures of the cruise control can change in
certain areas.
Safety information
WARNING
The system cannot serve as a substitute
for the driver’s personal judgment in as-
sessing the traffic situation. Based on the
limits of the system, it cannot independ-
ently react to all traffic situations. There is
a risk of an accident. Adjust driving style
to traffic conditions. Watch traffic closely
and actively intervene where appropriate.
WARNING
The desired speed can be incorrectly ad-
justed or called up by mistake. There is a
risk of an accident. Adjust the desired
speed to the traffic conditions. Watch traf-
fic closely and actively intervene where
appropriate.
WARNING
Risk of accident due to too high speed dif-
ferences to other vehicles, for instance in
the following situations:
– When fast approaching a slowly mov-
ing vehicle.
– Vehicle suddenly swerving into own
lane.
– When fast approaching standing ve-
hicles.
There is a risk of injuries or danger to life.
Watch traffic closely and actively inter-
vene where appropriate.
