Driving and operating
255
● The electric parking brake is
applied.
● The Traction Control system or
Electronic Stability Control is
deactivated or operating.
● The selector lever of automatic
transmissions is neither in D nor
in M.
● A fault is detected in the
Electronic Stability Control.
Switching off the system
Press
C
, the adaptive cruise control
mode is disabled and the adaptive
cruise control indication extinguishes
in the Driver Information Centre.
Pressing
ß
to activate the speed
limiter deactivates adaptive cruise
control.
Switching off the ignition deletes the
stored set speed.
Driver's attention
● Use the adaptive cruise control
carefully on bends or mountain
roads, as it can lose the vehicle
ahead and needs time to detect it
again.
● Do not use the system on
slippery roads as it can create
rapid changes in tyre traction
(wheel spinning), so that you
could lose control of the vehicle.
● Do not use the system when the
spare wheel is in use.

Warning
The system's automatic brake
force does not permit hard braking
and the braking level may not be
sufficient to avoid a collision.
● After a sudden lane change, the
system needs a certain time to
detect the next preceding
vehicle. So if a new vehicle is
detected, the system may
accelerate instead of braking.
● The adaptive cruise control only
considers traffic driving in the
same direction.
● The adaptive cruise control does
not consider pedestrians and
animals for braking and driving
off.
● The adaptive cruise control
considers stopped vehicles only
at low speed.
● Do not use the adaptive cruise
control when towing a trailer.
● Do not use the adaptive cruise
control on roads with an incline of
more than 10%.
Bends
The adaptive cruise control calculates
a predicted path based on the
centrifugal force. This predicted path
considers the current bend
characteristic, but cannot consider a
future bend change. The system may
lose the current vehicle ahead or
