Unusual noises during automatic braking
This is normal and is not a fault.
Touch panels do not react as expected
Moisture, dirt and grease can impede the functioning of the touch panels.
1. Always keep touch panels clean and dry.
Introduction
The predictive cruise control adapts the vehicle speed to detected speed limits and the course of the road ahead,
e.g. bends, junctions, roundabouts.
The predictive cruise control is an extension ofACC
and makes use of Dynamic Road Sign Display and the navigation data provided in the Infotainment system.
The predictive cruise control function is dependent on the equipment level and is not available in all countries.
Reaction to the end of a traffic jam
Vehicles with V2X technology (depending on vehicle equipment and not available in all countries)interact with other
vehicles in their vicinity. As a result, your vehicle can be informed about a traffic jam ahead and can reduce speed
early on.
Prerequisites:
—V2X is activated in the Infotainment system (→ Car2X).
—The reaction to a road characteristic ahead is activated in the Infotainment system (→ Predictive cruise control).
WARNING
The intelligent technology of predictive cruise control cannot overcome the physical limits specified, and functions
only within the limits of the system. Never let the extra convenience afforded by predictive cruise control tempt you
into taking any safety risks. Careless or unintentional use of predictive cruise control can cause accidents and lead
to serious injury. The system is not a substitute for the full concentration of the driver.
● Ensure that your speed is always appropriate for the current visibility, weather and road/traffic conditions.
● Always pay attention to the traffic situation and the area around the vehicle.
● Be prepared to control the speed yourself at all times. Malfunctions in the Dynamic Road Sign Display function
and out-of-date navigation data can lead to the speed being changed unexpectedly and suddenly or not being
adapted to the current traffic situation. Speeds regulated by the system may also not match your individual
driving style.
● Be prepared to control the speed yourself at all times. If you are driving without route guidance or leave the route
calculated by the navigation system or if the vehicle position cannot be correctly determined due to inexact GPS
data, the speed may be changed unexpectedly and suddenly or not adapted to the current traffic situation.
● Keep the navigation data up-to-date.
● Always observe the maximum speed limit. The maximum speed limit may be exceeded in the case of speed limits
that are not contained in the navigation data.
Please also observe the safety-relevant information on
ACC.
