System limits Speed range Best results are achieved when using the sys‐ tem on well-developed roads and highways. The desired speed can be selected between 20 mph/30 km/h to 110 mph/180 km/h. The system can also be activated when station‐ ary. Comply with the legal speed limit in every situa‐ tion when using the system.
Detection range
The detection capacity of the system and the automatic braking capacity are limited. Two-wheeled vehicles driving ahead of you for instance might not be detected.
Limited detection capacity Because of the limits to the detection ca‐ pacity, you should be alert at all times so that you can intervene actively, if necessary; otherwise, there is the danger of an accident occurring.◀
Deceleration The system does not decelerate when a sta‐ tionary obstacle is located in the same lane, e.g., a vehicle at a red traffic light or at the end of traffic congestion. The system also does not respond to: ▷ Pedestrians or similar slow-moving road
users.
▷ Red traffic lights. ▷ Stationary objects. ▷ Cross traffic. ▷ Oncoming traffic.
No warnings A warning may not be issued when ap‐
proaching a stationary or very slow-moving ob‐ stacle. You must react yourself; otherwise, there is the danger of an accident occurring.◀

Driving comfort
Controls
If the desired speed is too high for a curve, the speed is reduced slightly in the curve, although curves cannot be anticipated in advance. There‐ fore, drive into a curve at an appropriate speed. In tight curves, situations may result due to the restricted detection range of the system in which a vehicle driving ahead of you may not be detected at all, or not until after a considerable delay.
A vehicle driving in front of you is not detected until it is completely within the same lane as your vehicle.
Swerving vehicles If a vehicle driving ahead of you suddenly swerves into your lane, the system may not be able to automatically restore the selected dis‐ tance. This also applies to major speed differ‐ ences to vehicles driving ahead of you, e.g., when rapidly approaching a truck. When a vehi‐ cle driving ahead of you is reliably detected, the system requests that the driver intervene by braking and carrying out evasive maneuvers, if necessary. You must react yourself; otherwise, there is the danger of an accident occurring.◀
Unexpected lane change
When approaching a curve, the system may re‐ act briefly to the vehicles in the next lane due to the bend of the curve. Any deceleration of the vehicle by the system can be compensated for by briefly accelerating. After the accelerator pedal is released, the system becomes active again and independently controls the speed.
If a vehicle ahead of you unexpectedly moves into another lane from behind a stopped vehicle, you yourself must react, as the system does not react to stopped vehicles.
Driving away In some situations, the vehicle cannot drive away automatically, e.g., on steep inclines or be‐ hind bumps in the road.

Low objects already displayed, e.g., curbs, can move into the blind area of the sensors before or after a continuous tone sounds. High, protruding objects such as ledges may not be detected. False warnings PDC may issue a warning under the following conditions even though there is no obstacle within the detection range: ▷ In heavy rain. ▷ When sensors are very dirty or covered in
ice.
▷ When sensors are covered in snow. ▷ On rough road surfaces. ▷ In large buildings with right angles and
smooth walls, e.g., in underground garages.
▷ In heavy exhaust. ▷ Due to other ultrasound sources, e.g.,
sweeping machines, high pressure steam cleaners or neon lights.
The malfunction is signaled by a continuous tone alternating between the front and rear speakers. As soon as the malfunction due to other ultrasound sources is no longer present, the system is again fully functional.
Malfunction A Check Control message is displayed. The range of the sensors is shown as a shaded area on the Control Display. PDC has failed. Have the system checked.

Therefore, equipment is also described that is not available in a vehicle, e. g., because of the selected optional equip‐ ment or country variant. This also applies for safety-related functions and systems.
Integrated universal remote control The concept The integrated universal remote control can op‐ erate up to 3 functions of remote-controlled sys‐ tems such as garage door drives or lighting sys‐ tems. The integrated universal remote control replaces up to 3 different hand-held transmit‐ ters. To operate the remote control, the buttons on the interior rearview mirror must be program‐ med with the desired functions. The hand-held transmitter for the particular system is required in order to program the remote control.
During programming During programming and before activat‐ ing a device using the integrated universal re‐ mote control, ensure that there are no people, animals, or objects in the range of movement of the remote-controlled device; otherwise, there is a risk of injury or damage. Also follow the safety instructions of the hand- held transmitter.◀ Before selling the vehicle, delete the stored functions for the sake of security. Compatibility

4. Simultaneously press and hold the button of the desired function on the hand-held trans‐ mitter and the button to be programmed on the interior rearview mirror. The LED on the interior rearview mirror will begin flashing slowly.
5. Release both buttons as soon as the LED
flashes more rapidly. When the LED is flash‐ ing faster, this indicates that the button on the interior rearview mirror has been pro‐ grammed. If the LED does not flash faster after at least 60 seconds, change the distance between the interior rearview mirror and the hand- held transmitter and repeat the step. Several more attempts at different distances may be necessary. Wait at least 15 seconds be‐ tween attempts. Canada: if programming with the hand-held transmitter was interrupted, hold down the interior rearview mirror button and repeat‐ edly press and release the hand-held trans‐ mitter button for 2 seconds.
6. To program other functions on other but‐
tons, repeat steps 3 to 5.
The systems can be controlled using the interior rearview mirror buttons. Special feature of the alternating-code wireless system If you are unable to operate the system after re‐ peated programming, please check if the sys‐ tem to be controlled features an alternating- code system. Read the system's operating manual, or press the programmed button on the interior rearview mirror longer. If the LED on the interior rearview mirror starts flashing rapidly and then stays lit constantly for 2 seconds, the system features an alternating-code system. Flashing and con‐ tinuous illumination of the LED will repeat for approximately 20 seconds.
For systems with an alternating-code system, the integrated universal remote control and the system also have to be synchronized. Please read the operating manual of the system being set up for information on how to syn‐ chronize the system. Synchronizing is easier with the aid of a second person. To synchronize: 1. Park the vehicle within range of the remote-
controlled system.
2. Program the relevant button on the interior
rearview mirror as described.
3. Locate and press the synchronizing button on the system being programmed. You have approx. 30 seconds for the next step.
4. Hold down the programmed button on the interior rearview mirror for approximately 3 seconds and then release it. If necessary, repeat this work step up to three times in or‐ der to finish synchronization. Once synchro‐ nization is complete, the programmed func‐ tion will be carried out.
Reprogramming individual buttons 1. Switch on the ignition. 2. Press and hold the interior rearview mirror
button to be programmed.
3. As soon as the interior rearview mirror LED
starts flashing slowly, hold the hand-held transmitter for the system to be controlled approx. 1 to 3 in/2.5 to 8 cm away from the buttons on the interior rearview mirror. The required distance depends on the manual transmitter.
4. Likewise, press and hold the button of the desired function on the hand-held transmit‐ ter.
5. Release both buttons as soon as the interior
rearview mirror LED flashes more rapidly. When the LED is flashing faster, this indi‐ cates that the button on the interior rearview mirror has been programmed. The system
