Queue assistance also provides the adaptive  
cruise control with enhanced functionality at  
speeds below 30 km/h (20 mph).  
When the car is following another vehicle and  
the driver indicates an impending overtaking  
manoeuvre with the direction indicator9, the  
adaptive cruise control helps to briefly accel-  
erate the car towards the vehicle in front.

Extended speed range  
NOTE  
WARNING  
The Queue Assist function can hold the car  
stationary for a maximum of 4 minutes -  
then the parking brake is applied and the  
adaptive cruise control is disengaged.  
When the adaptive cruise control is follow-  
ing another vehicle at speeds in excess of  
30 km/h (20 mph) and the target is  
changed from a moving vehicle to a sta-  
tionary vehicle, the adaptive cruise control  
will ignore the stationary vehicle and  
instead select the stored speed.  
NOTE  
In order to activate the adaptive cruise  
control, the driver's door must be closed  
and the driver must be wearing the seat-  
belt.  
The parking brake must be released  
before the adaptive cruise control can  
be reactivated.  
The driver must intervene him/herself  
and brake.  
With an automatic gearbox, the adaptive  
cruise control can follow another vehicle  
within the range 0-200 km/h (0-125 mph).  
Change of target  
Automatic standby mode with change  
of target  
NOTE  
The adaptive cruise control is disengaged  
and set in standby mode:  
A vehicle in front must be within a reason-  
able distance in order to enable activation  
of the adaptive cruise control at a speed  
lower than 30 km/h (20 mph).  
when the speed is below 5 km/h (5 mph)  
and the adaptive cruise control is uncer-  
tain whether the target object is a station-  
ary vehicle or some other object, e.g. a  
speed bump.  
For shorter stops in connection with inching  
in slow traffic or at traffic lights driving is  
automatically resumed if the stops do not  
exceed about 3 seconds - if it takes longer  
before the car in front starts moving again  
then the Adaptive cruise control is set in  
standby mode with automatic braking. The  
driver must then reactivate it in one of the fol-  
lowing ways:  
If the target vehicle in front suddenly turns then  
there may be stationary traffic in front.  
when the speed is below 5 km/h (5 mph)  
and the vehicle in front turns off so the  
adaptive cruise control no longer has a  
vehicle to follow.  
When the adaptive cruise control is following  
another vehicle at speeds below 30 km/h  
(20 mph) and the target is changed from a  
moving vehicle to a stationary vehicle, the  
adaptive cruise control will brake for the sta-  
tionary vehicle.  
Termination of automatic braking at a  
standstill  
07  
In certain situations, queue assistance stops  
automatic braking at a standstill. This means  
that the brakes are released and the car may  
start to roll - the driver must therefore inter-  
vene and brake the car himself/herself in  
order to maintain its position.  
Press the steering wheel button  
.
or  
Depress the accelerator pedal.  
>
The adaptive cruise control will then  
resume following the vehicle in front.
