The driver will then have to reactivate Pilot
Assist in one of the following ways:
•
Press the
button on the left-side
steering wheel keypad
•
Press the accelerator pedal
> Pilot Assist will resume following the vehi-
cle ahead (target vehicle) if it begins to
move within approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE
Pilot Assist can keep the vehicle at a stand-
still for up to 5 minutes, after which the park-
ing brake will be set and Pilot Assist will go
into standby mode.
The parking brake has to be released before
Pilot Assist can be reactivated.
Deactivation of the auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, auto-hold will be deactivated
when the vehicle is at a standstill and Pilot Assist
will go into standby mode.
This means that the brakes will be released and
the vehicle can begin to roll.
The driver must actively apply the brakes to keep
the vehicle at a standstill.
This can occur in the following situations:
•
the driver presses the brake pedal
•
the parking brake is set
•
the gear selector is moved to the P, N or R
positions
•
the driver puts Pilot Assist in standby mode
Automatically setting the parking brake
In certain situations, the parking brake is set
automatically to help keep the vehicle at a stand-
still.
This occurs if Pilot Assist keeps the vehicle at a
standstill with the brakes and:
•
the driver unbuckles the seat belt or opens
the door
•
Pilot Assist has kept the vehicle at a stand-
still for more than approx. 5 minutes
•
the engine is turned off
•
the brakes overheat

number of situations. However, the driver always
has the primary responsibility for maintaining a
safe distance to other vehicles and for keeping
the vehicle in its proper traffic lane.
