Vehicle features and options
This chapter describes all standard, country-
specific and optional features offered with
the series. It also describes features and
functions that are not necessarily available
in your vehicle, e.g., due to the selected op-
tions or country versions. This also applies
to safety-related functions and systems.
When using these functions and systems,
the applicable laws and regulations must be
observed.
Camera-based cruise control
Concept
Using this system, a desired speed and a
distance to a vehicle ahead can be adjusted
using the buttons on the steering wheel.
The system maintains the desired speed on
clear roads. The vehicle accelerates or
brakes automatically.
If a vehicle is driving ahead of you, the sys-
tem adjusts the speed of your vehicle so
that the set distance to the vehicle ahead is
maintained. The speed is adjusted as far as
the given situation allows.
The distance can be adjusted in several
steps. For safety reasons, it depends on the
respective speed.
General information
A camera on the interior mirror is used to
detect vehicles driving ahead.
Depending on the settings, the characteris-
tics of cruise control many change in cer-
tain ranges.
Safety information
Warning
The system cannot serve as a substitute
for the driver’s personal judgment in as-
sessing the traffic conditions. Based on
the limits of the system, it cannot inde-
pendently react to all traffic situations.
There is a risk of accident. Adjust driving
style to traffic conditions. Watch traffic
closely and actively intervene where ap-
propriate.
Warning
The desired speed can be incorrectly ad-
justed or called up by mistake. There is a
risk of accident. Adjust the desired speed
to the traffic conditions. Watch traffic
closely and actively intervene where ap-
propriate.
Warning
Risk of accident due to too high speed dif-
ferences to other vehicles, for instance in
the following situations:
– When fast approaching a slowly mov-
ing vehicle.
– Vehicle suddenly swerving into own
lane.
– When fast approaching standing ve-
hicles.
There is a risk of injuries or danger to life.
Watch traffic closely and actively inter-
vene where appropriate.
