Changing the speed by adopting the current speed () - requirements
The ACC is activated.
The vehicle is moving at a speed other than that which is stored.
Note
■
If during control the speed is increased by pressing the accelerator, control is
temporarily stopped. Upon releasing the accelerator, control is automatically
resumed.
■
If during control the speed is reduced by applying the brake, control is stop-
ped. Control needs to be restarted in order to resume » page 166.
■
If the vehicle is controlled by a lower speed than the stored speed, then
the current speed is stored the first time the key is pressed. Press the key
again
and the speed is reduced in increments of 1 km/h.

Note
■
If the proximity is changed in infotainment, the change will only come into

The proximity is dependent on the speed. The higher the speed, the greater
the proximity to the vehicle ahead.

On wet roads, a longer time interval to the vehicle ahead should always be
selected than on dry roads.
Special driving conditions
Fig. 205 Special conditions: Cornering / narrow vehicles or vehicles trav-

Fig. 206 Special conditions: Lane changes of other vehicles / stationary
vehicles
Read and observe on page 163 first.
The following and similar situations require special attention of the driver.
When cornering
When driving around long bends the ACC may respond to a vehicle in the adja-

. Your own vehicle is regulated with respect to this ve-
hicle and will no longer respond to the vehicle ahead.
In such cases, control should be disabled by accelerating, applying the brake or
pressing the button on the operating lever
