HOLD Function
General Safety Instructions
WARNING
Loss of control over the
vehicle
Despite the HOLD function, responsibility for stop-
ping and starting on gradients lies with the driver.
When stopping and starting on slippery surfaces (e.
g. icy or loose substrate) the HOLD function cannot
be guaranteed to provide assistance. The vehicle can
roll away.
e
Always adjust your driving style to the road sur-
face and the vehicle load; use the footbrake if
necessary.
If the HOLD function is not working, the driver
cannot be assisted when driving off on gradients.
e Hold the vehicle with the footbrake.
WARNING
Slight rolling back on
uphill slopes
If the vehicle comes to a standstill on steep gra-
dients without the driver applying the footbrake, the
vehicle can roll back until the HOLD function stops it.
In this situation it is possible to reduce the roll-back
by applying the footbrake.
e Increase the braking force with the footbrake to
help to hold the vehicle.
Responding to warning symbols
Always observe any warning and information mes-
sages displayed in the vehicle.

Please see chapter "Warning and information
messages" on page 244.
Operating principle
The HOLD function assists the driver when stopping
the vehicle and driving off on steep gradients. The
vehicle is automatically secured against rolling back
opposite the desired direction of travel.
When the HOLD function is active, the light indicator
on the instrument cluster comes on.
When Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is operating
normally, the HOLD function actively holds the ve-
hicle at a standstill following automatic braking.
If the driver seat belt is unfastened and the driver
door is opened while the HOLD function is active, the
parking lock and parking brake are activated
automatically.
If the vehicle is held on a steep gradient, you can
drive off in the usual way.
Activating the HOLD function
b b Drive position D or R selected.
e Press the brake pedal until the vehicle comes to
a standstill.
The HOLD function is activated. The vehicle is held
stationary even without pressing the brake pedal.
Information
The HOLD function can also be activated, irrespec-
tive of the gradient, by quickly flooring the pressed
brake pedal while the vehicle is stationary. Changing
the drive position will not deactivate the HOLD
function in this case.
Information
When the HOLD function is active, the driver may
feel a difference in the brake pedal, and hydraulic
noises may be heard.
This behavior is typical of the system. There is no
fault.
