The functions described below are dependent on the equipment level and are not available in all countries.
Predictive cruise control system
If the vehicle is equipped with the Dynamic Road Sign Display function, ACC can predictively adapt the vehicle speed to detected speed
limits and the course of the road ahead .
Overtaking
If you indicate left (left-hand traffic: indicate right) to overtake, ACC can accelerate the vehicle and thus reduce the distance from the
vehicle in front. Your set speed will not be exceeded.
If ACC does not detect any vehicle in front after you have changed lane, ACC will accelerate the vehicle up to the set speed.
Stop-and-go traffic
ACC can brake vehicles with an automatic gearbox to a standstill and hold them stationary for a few seconds. ACC remains active and
the instrument cluster display shows ACC ready. During this time the vehicle will move off again automatically as soon as the vehicle in
front moves off.
After this time, the vehicle will automatically release the brakes. The vehicle will be free to roll and ACC control will be cancelled.
Extend readiness to drive:
—Depress the brake pedal.
ACC remains active as long as the brake pedal is depressed. When you take your foot off the brake pedal, ACC remains ready to pull
away for a few seconds.
—Press the
button.
Readiness to move off is prolonged for a few seconds.
The readiness to move off is ended if the driver’s seat belt is unfastened.
WARNING
If the message ACC ready to start is shown on the instrument cluster display and the vehicle in front moves off, your vehicle will
move off automatically. In some cases, obstacles in the vehicle’s path may not be detected. This can result in serious injury and
accidents.
● Always check the road ahead before moving off and brake the vehicle if necessary.
Inside Overtaking Prevention System
On the instrument cluster display: slower vehicle detected in
the left-hand lane (illustration).
Vehicles with Inside Overtaking Prevention System: If ACC detects a slower vehicle in the left-hand lane (left-hand traffic: in the right-
hand lane), ACC will brake the vehicle gently within the system limits and can therefore prevent a prohibited overtaking manoeuvre.
