The speed is adjusted as far as the given sit-
uation allows.
If the
preceding vehicle brakes to a stop then
drives off again shortly afterward, Distance
Control is capable of detecting this depending
on vehicle equipment and
ambient conditions.
Otherwise, drive off independently such as by
stepping on the accelerator pedal or by press-

Safety information
WARNING
The system cannot serve as a substitute for
the driver’s personal judgment in assessing
the traffic situation. Based on the limits of
the system, it cannot independently react to
all traffic situations. There is a risk of acci-
dent, injury, and property damage. Adjust
driving style to traffic conditions. Watch the
surrounding traffic situation closely, be ready
to take over steering and braking at any time,
and actively intervene where appropriate.
WARNING
An unsecured vehicle can begin to move and
possibly roll away. There is a risk of accident,
injury, and property damage. Before leaving
the vehicle, secure the vehicle against rolling
away.
In order to ensure that the vehicle is secured
against rolling away, follow the following:
▷ Set the parking
brake.
▷ Make sure that selector lever position P
is engaged.
▷ On uphill grades or on downhill slopes,
turn the front wheels in the direction of
the curb.
▷ On uphill grades or on downhill slopes,
also secure the vehicle, for instance with
a wheel chock.
WARNING
The set speed can be incorrectly adjusted or
called up by mistake. There is a risk of acci-
dent, injury, and property damage. Adjust the
set speed to the traffic conditions. Watch sur-
rounding traffic closely and actively intervene
where appropriate.
WARNING
Risk of accident is greater when there is a
high speed differential to other vehicles, for
instance in the following situations:
▷ When approaching a slowly moving ve-
hicle at speed.
▷ Vehicle suddenly swerving into own
lane.
▷ When approaching stationary vehicles at
speed.
There is a risk of injury and danger to life.
Watch surrounding traffic closely and actively
intervene where appropriate.
