ACC - Adaptive Cruise Control*
Introduction
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) maintains a
constant speed set b
y the driver. When
approaching another vehicle in front, the
ACC detects it and adapts the speed auto-
matically, maintaining a distance set by
the driver.
Does my vehicle have ACC?
Your vehicle has ACC if it has a configuration
menu in the infotainment system
›››
page 89
and if it has the ACC function buttons on the
multifunction steering wheel
›››
Fig. 156 .
Speed range
ACC regulates speeds between 30 km/h (20
mph) and 210 km/h (130 mph).
1)
The ACC can bring the vehicle to a standstill
if a vehicle in front stops. If your vehicle is fit-
ted with a manual gearbox, you should pay
attention t
o gear changes. The ACC could
switch off if the RPM gets too high or low.
Driver intervention prompt
ACC is subject to certain limitations in-
herent to the system. This means that
the driver will have to control the speed
and distance from other vehicles in cer-
tain situations. In this case, the instru-
ment cluster display will tell you to in-
tervene by applying the brake, and an
audio warning will be played.
Radar sensors
The ACC uses the front radar technology.

mation about its limitations

WARNING
The ACC’s technology cannot overcome
the system's inherent limitations or change
the laws of physics. If used negligently or
involuntarily, it may cause serious acci-
dents and injuries. The system is not a re-
placement for driver awareness.
●
Always be prepared to brake or acceler-
ate.
1)
When E-Mode is activated in hybrid vehicles,
the ACC speed r
ange may vary.
