Switching target vehicles with
Adaptive Cruise Control
At certain speeds, models with automatic trans-
missions and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC
46
)
can switch target vehicles.
Switching target vehicles
If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be
stationary traffic ahead.
When Adaptive Cruise Control is actively follow-
ing another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h
(20 mph) and switches targets from a moving
vehicle to a stationary vehicle, Adaptive Cruise
Control will brake for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING
When Adaptive Cruise Control follows another
vehicle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h
(20 mph) and changes target vehicle – from a
moving vehicle to a stationary one – Adaptive
Cruise Control will ignore the stationary vehi-
cle and instead accelerate to the stored
speed.
•
The driver must then intervene and apply
the brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching
targets
Adaptive Cruise Control will be disabled and go
into standby mode:
•
if your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h
(3 mph) and Adaptive Cruise Control cannot
determine if the target object is a stationary
vehicle or another object, e.g. a speed bump.
•
if your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h
(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so that
Adaptive Cruise Control no longer has a vehi-
cle to follow.

Automatic braking with Adaptive
Cruise Control
The Adaptive cruise control (ACC
47
) has a spe-
cial brake function in slow traffic and while sta-
tionary.
Braking function in slow traffic and at a
standstill
In slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stop-
ped at a traffic light, driving will resume automati-
cally if the vehicle is stopped for less than
approx. 3 seconds. If it takes more than 3 sec-
onds for the vehicle ahead to begin moving again,
Adaptive Cruise Control will go into standby
mode and the Auto-hold brake function will acti-
vate.
–
Adaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated in
one of the following ways:
•
Pressing the
button on the steering
wheel keypad.
•
Pressing the accelerator pedal.
> Adaptive Cruise Control will resume fol-
lowing the vehicle ahead if it begins to
move within approx. 6 seconds.
