Active Cruise Control with
Stop & Go ACC
Principle
This system allows you to set a desired speed
and a desired distance from the vehicle in front,
using the buttons on the steering wheel.
When the road ahead is clear, the system main‐
tains the desired speed by braking or accelerat‐
ing the vehicle automatically, as required.
If there is a vehicle driving in front, the system
adapts your own vehicle's speed in order to
maintain the set distance from the vehicle ahead.
The speed is adapted as far as the given situa‐
tion allows.
General
A radar sensor is fitted in the front bumper and a
camera on the rearview mirror for detecting vehi‐
cles driving in front.
Characteristics of Cruise Control may change in
certain areas depending on vehicle setting.
The distance can be set in several stages, and is
dependent on the particular speed for reasons of
safety.
If the vehicle ahead brakes to a standstill and
sets off again shortly afterwards, the system can
comprehend this within the given context.

conditions. Observe the traffic situation and in‐
tervene actively if the situation warrants it.

ing away. There is a danger of accidents. Be‐
fore leaving the vehicle, secure it to prevent it

cle is secured against rolling away:
