Press the ◀ button (3).
Pilot Assist will be turned off and shift to Adaptive Cruise Control in active mode.

In standby mode, the driver will have to regulate the vehicle's speed and the distance to the vehicle ahead.

When Pilot Assist is in standby mode and your vehicle comes too close to another vehicle, the driver will be alerted by the Distance Alert function.

Standby mode due to action by the driver

Pilot Assist is temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode if:
  • the brakes are applied
  • The gear selector is moved to N
  • the turn signals are used for more than 1 minute
  • the vehicle is driven faster than the set speed for more than 1 minute.

A temporary increase in speed, such as when passing another vehicle, does not affect the Pilot Assist set speed. The vehicle will return to the set speed when the accelerator pedal is released.

When the turn signals are used, Pilot Assist's steering function will be temporarily deactivated. When this is no longer the case, the steering function will reactivate if the traffic lane's side marker lines can still be detected.

Automatic standby mode

Pilot Assist interacts with other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control. If any of these other systems are not functioning properly, Pilot Assist will automatically be deactivated.

 Warning

If this happens, the driver will be alerted by an audible signal and a message in the instrument panel. The driver will have to adapt the vehicle's speed, apply the brakes when necessary and keep a safe distance to the vehicle ahead.
Pilot Assist switches automatically to standby mode if:
  • the vehicle's speed is below approx. 3 mph (5 km/h) and Pilot Assist cannot determine if a vehicle ahead is a stationary vehicle or an object.
  • the vehicle's speed is below approx. 3 mph (5 km/h) and the vehicle ahead turns so that Pilot Assist no longer has a vehicle to follow (target vehicle).
  • the driver's hands are not on the steering wheel
  • the driver's door is opened
  • the driver unbuckles the seat belt
  • engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
  • the wheels lose traction
  • brake temperature is too high
  • the parking brake is set
  • The camera lens/radar sensor is covered by e.g., snow or if heavy rain interferes with radar waves
