Reducing the stored speed (dur-
ing CCS setting)
Press the button
A
in the area
briefly to reduce the stored speed in shot
measures of about. 1 km/h (1 mph) and store.
Reduce speed without braking, by interrupting the accelerator
until reaching the new stored speed.
Keep button
A
pressed in the area
for a long time to continually decrease
stored speed until releasing and storing.
Switch off the CCS. Control

. The system is switched off. The stored speed is deleted.
Travelling down hills with the CCS
When travelling down hills the CCS cannot
maintain a constant speed. Slow the vehicle
down using the brake pedal and reduce
gears if required.
Automatic off
The cruise control system (CCS) is switched
off automatically or temporarily:
●
If the system detects a fault that could af-
fect the working order of the CCS.
●
If you increase the stored speed by press-
ing the accelerator pedal for a certain time.
●
if the brake or clutch pedal is depressed.
●
If the gear is changed with the manual
gearbox.
●
If the airbag is triggered.
Safety Assist* (City Safety
Assist function)
Introduction
The City Safety Assist function covers driving
situations at a distance of about 10 metres in
front of the vehicle, in a speed range of ap-
proximately 5-30 km/h (3-19 mph).
When the system detects a possible collision
with a vehicle in front, the vehicle prepares
for a possible emergency braking
›››
.
If the driver does not react to an imminent
collision, the system can automatically brake
the vehicle in order to reduce speed faced
with a possible collision. The system can
help to reduce the consequences of an acci-
dent.
If the City Safety Assist function determines
that the driver has braked insufficiently when
faced with an imminent collision, the system
can increase the brake force in order to re-
duce speed. The system can help to reduce
the consequences of an accident.
WARNING
The smart technology in the City Safety As-
sist system cannot change the limits imposed
by the laws of physics and by the system it-
self. The increased convenience offered by
the City Safety Assist system should never
prompt you to take risks. The driver always
assumes the responsibility of braking in
time.
●
The City Safety Assist function cannot pre-
vent accidents or serious injury by itself.
●
The City Safety Assist system may carry out
unwanted brake interventions in complex
driving situations e.g. when a vehicle crosses
at a short distance.
WARNING
Relying on the City Safety Assist system in
city driving as part of one's driving behaviour
may cause accidents and serious injury. The
