Driver assistance systems
ACC: Take action!
●
The indication is displayed if, when the ve-
hicl
e st
arts up on a hill with a slight sl
ope
, the
v
ehicle rolls back even although the ACC is
activated. Apply the brake to stop the vehicle
from moving/colliding with another vehicle.
ACC: speed limit
●
The indication is displayed in vehicles with
manual gearboxes if the current speed is too
low for the ACC mode. The speed limiter
switches off if the speed falls below 20 km/h
(12 mph).
ACC: available as of the 2nd gear
●
The ACC is operational as of the 2nd gear
(manual gearbox).
ACC: engine speed
●
This indication is displayed if, when the
ACC accelerates or brakes, the driver does
not shift up or down a gear in time, which
means exceeding or not reaching the permit-
ted RPM. The ACC switches itself off. A buzzer
warning is heard.
ACC: clutch applied
●
Vehicles with manual transmission: pressing
the clutch pedal for longer exits cruise con-
trol.
Door open
●
Vehicles with automatic transmission: the
ACC cannot be activated with the vehicle
stationary and the door open.
WARNING
There is a danger of rear collision when the
distance to the vehicle in fr
ont is reduced
and the speed difference between both ve-
hicles is so great that a speed reduction by
the ACC is not sufficient. In this case, brake
immediately!
●
The ACC may not be able to detect all
situations properly.
●
Stepping on the accelerator may cause
the ACC not to intervene in braking. Driver
braking will have priority over intervention
by the speed control or adaptive cruise
control.
●
Always be ready to use the brakes!
●
Observe country-specific provisions gov-
erning obligatory minimum distances be-
tween vehicles.
●
It is dangerous to activate control and re-
sume the programmed speed if the road,
traffic or weather conditions do not permit
this. Risk of accident!
Note
●
The programmed speed is erased once
the ignition or the ACC are s
witched off.
●
When the traction control system (ASR) is
deactivat
ed during acceleration or else the
ESC is activated in Sport* Mode
(
›››
page 92), the ACC switches off auto-
matically.
●
In vehicles with the Start-Stop system,
the engine switches off during the ACC
stopping phase and restarts for moving off.
