Driving with Travel Assist

Driving Assist (Travel As-

sist)

Depending on the equipment, additional de-

tails, e. g. dashed road markings and vehicles

in front, can also be shown on the instrument

cluster display.

Travel Assist automatically controls the accel-

erator pedal, the brakes and the steering. In

addition, Travel Assist may, within its limitations,

decelerate the vehicle until it stops behind an-

other that stops and automatically starts again.

Introduction

Control lamps indicate the status of the system

on the instrument panel display:

Travel Assist combines adaptive cruise control

(ACC) and the adaptive lane guidance func-

tion. Within the limitations of the system, the ve-

hicle can maintain a distance from the vehicle

in front that is preselected by the driver and

remain in the preferred position within the lane.

You can override assisted adjustment at all

times.

Indicator lamp green: Travel Assist ac-

tive, adaptive cruise control and adap-

tive lane guidance function are active.

Travel Assist uses the same sensors as Adap-

Therefore, carefully read the information about

the ACC ››› page 141 and the Lane Assist

››› page 149 and take into account the limita-

tions of the systems and the indications given in

the information.
