Cruise control system  
Description  
Applies to: vehicles with cruise control system  
An additional indicator will appear in the head-up  
display*.  
The cruise control system assists you in main-  
taining a constant speed above approximately  
15 mph (20 km/h). The system maintains the de-  
sired speed by braking and accelerating.  
WARNING  
Observe the safety precautions and note the  
limitations of the assist systems, sensors, and  
cameras ðpage 139 to ðpage 142.  
WARNING  
– Observe the safety precautions and note the  
limitations of the assist systems, sensors,  
and cameras ðpage 139 to ðpage 142.  
– The cruise control system is only an assist  
system, and the driver is still responsible for  
operating the vehicle. The driver is especial-  
ly responsible for braking, controlling the  
speed, and maintaining the distance to oth-  
er vehicles.  
Turning on the system  
Applies to: vehicles with cruise control system  
– Turn off the cruise control temporarily when  
driving in turning lanes, highway exits, or in  
construction zones. This prevents the vehi-  
cle from accelerating to the stored speed  
when in these situations.

you to position 2 .  
– Conventional drive system:Before driving  
downhill a long distance on a steep hill, de-  
crease your speed and select a lower gear.  
This makes use of the engine braking effect  
and reduces the load placed on the brakes.  
– Plug-in hybrid drive: Before driving downhill  
a long distance on a steep hill, decrease  
your speed and use the recuperation braking  
effect ðpage 104. This reduces the load on  
the brakes.  
WARNING  
– Observe the safety precautions and note the  
limitations of the assist systems, sensors,  
and cameras ðpage 139 to ðpage 142.  
– If the brakes are malfunctioning (for exam-  
ple, overheating) while the cruise control  
system is turned on, the regulating func-  
tions may shut off automatically.
