Instrument cluster display: Examples of ACC status displays
Read and observe on page 150 first.
The ACC allows a speed of 30 - 160 km/h to be set or a distance to the preced-
ing vehicle to be very short of very long to be set.
The ACC adjusts the set speed with respect to the detected vehicle ahead,
thus maintaining the selected proximity.
The ACC can detect a vehicle that is up to approx. 120 m ahead using the radar
sensor.

Automatic stop-start
Read and observe
on page 150 first.
Vehicles with an automatic transmission can decelerate to a standstill and
start moving again using the ACC.
Decelerate to a standstill
If a vehicle ahead decelerates to a standstill, the ACC will also decelerate your
vehicle to a standstill.
Starting to drive again after a holding period
As soon as the vehicle ahead starts moving again after a holding period, your
vehicle will also move and the speed will continue to be regulated. Control is
automatically disconnected in case of longer holding periods.
Depress the brake pedal.
