Drive mode for driver support  
WARNING  
The driver can choose different drive modes  
to determine how driver support should  
maintain a time interval to the vehicle ahead.  
Settings are made using the DRIVE MODE  
controls.  
The driver support system only issues a  
warning for obstacles detected by its radar  
sensor – thus, a warning may come after a  
delay or not at all.  
the driver puts the function in standby  
mode.  
Auto Activate Parking Brake  
In certain situations, the parking brake will be  
applied to keep the vehicle at a standstill.  
Never wait for a warning or assistance.  
Apply the brakes when necessary.  
Select one of the following:  
Eco - Driver support will focus on provid-  
ing good fuel economy, which will  
increase the time interval to the vehicle  
ahead.  
This occurs if the function is keeping the vehi-  
cle stationary using the brakes and:  
Driver support can keep the vehicle sta-  
tionary for no more than 5 minutes – after  
that time the parking brake is applied and  
the function is deactivated.  
the driver opens the door or unbuckles  
his/her seat belt  
Comfort - Driver support will focus on fol-  
lowing the set time interval to the vehicle  
ahead as smoothly as possible.  
the function has kept the vehicle at a  
standstill for more than approx. 5 minutes  
The parking brake must be released before  
driver support can be reactivated.  
the brakes overheat  
Dynamic* - Driver support will focus on  
following the set time interval to the vehi-  
cle ahead more exactly, which could mean  
faster acceleration and heavier braking.  
the driver switches off the engine man-  
ually.

vated when the vehicle is at a standstill and  
the function will go into standby mode. This  
means that the brakes will be released and the  
vehicle could begin to roll. The driver must  
actively apply the brakes to keep the vehicle

WARNING  
Driver support systems (p. 276)  
Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 286)  
Pilot Assist* (p. 296)  
Curve Speed Assist can help the driver  
reduce speed before sharp turns if the preset  
speed for the driver support function Adap-  
tive Cruise Control* or Pilot Assist* is deter-  
mined to be too high.  
This assessment is performed using informa-  
tion from map data in the vehicle's navigation  
system, Sensus Navigation*. After the turn,  
the vehicle will resume the previously set  
speed.  
The function is supplementary driver  
support intended to facilitate driving  
and help make it safer – it cannot han-  
dle all situations in all traffic, weather  
and road conditions.  
Drive modes* (p. 410)  
The driver is advised to read all sec-  
tions in the Owner's Manual about this  
function to learn of its limitations,  
which the driver must be aware of  
before using the function.  
As the function reduces the  
vehicle's speed, this symbol  
will be displayed in the instru-  
ment panel.  
Driver support functions are not a sub-  
stitute for the driver's attention and  
judgment. The driver is always respon-  
sible for ensuring the vehicle is driven  
in a safe manner, at the appropriate  
speed, with an appropriate distance to  
other vehicles, and in accordance with  
current traffic rules and regulations.  
The driver can cancel the function at any time  
by braking or using the accelerator pedal.  
Drive modes  
Cornering assistance varies depending on the  
selected drive mode. If drive mode cannot be  
selected, the function will use the Comfort  
option. In Dynamic mode, cornering will be  
sporty, with slightly more powerful accelera-  
tion coming out of curves.
