Selecting and activating cruise control functions
For a special preference of the cruise control function, it can be selected in the centre display before activation with steering wheel button. This applies to speed limiter, cruise control (CC1), Pilot Assist* and Adaptive Cruise Control*.
Press in the centre display.
Tap on Driving and activate the desired function.
When the desired function is selected – press the steering wheel button to activate it.
The symbol in the driver display lights up – the function is started and the current speed is stored as the maximum speed.
If the function is set to standby mode – press the steering wheel button to reactivate it.
The driver display's cruise control markings light up – the car then continues to follow the last speed stored.
To always obtain Pilot Assist when activating cruise control functions for each new driving cycle:
Press in the centre display.
Press Driving.
Activate Pilot Assist as default.
Warning
A significant increase in speed may follow when the speed is resumed with the steering wheel button.
