Adaptive cruise control* - temporary
deactivation, and standby mode
The adaptive cruise control can be temporar-
ily deactivated and set in standby mode.
Temporary deactivation/standby mode
To temporarily disengage the adaptive cruise
control and set it in standby mode:
•
Press the steering wheel button
This symbol and the stored speed's
marking then change colour from
GREEN to WHITE.
Standby mode due to driver intervention
The adaptive cruise control is temporarily dis-
engaged and set automatically in standby
mode if:
•
the foot brake is used
•
the clutch pedal is depressed for longer
than 1 minute
7
•
the gear selector is moved to
N
position
(automatic gearbox)
•
the driver maintains speed higher than
the stored speed for longer than
1 minute.
The driver must then regulate the speed.
A temporary increase in speed with the accel-
erator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not
affect the setting - the car returns to the last
stored speed when the accelerator pedal is
released.
Automatic standby mode
The adaptive cruise control is dependent on
other systems, e.g. Stability system ESC
(p. 184). If any of these systems stops work-
ing, the adaptive cruise control is deactivated
automatically.
In the event of automatic deactivation a signal
will sound and the message
Adaptive cruise
control cancelled
is shown in the combined
instrument panel. The driver must then inter-
vene and adapt the speed and distance to
the vehicle ahead.
An automatic deactivation can be due to:
•
the driver opens the door
•
the driver takes off his seatbelt
•
engine speed is too low/high
•
speed has fallen below 30 km/h
8
•
wheels lose traction
•
brake temperature is high
•
the radar sensor is covered e.g. by wet
snow or heavy rain (radar waves blocked).
Resume set speed
Adaptive cruise control in standby mode is
reactivated with one press on the steering
wheel button
- the speed is then set to the
last stored speed.
NOTE
A pronounced increase in speed may
occur after the cruise control has been
reactivated with the
button.
