 Important

Before using Pilot Assist

Take the time to read everything about Pilot Assist in this manual before using it for the first time. Understanding its capabilities and limitations is important for safe use.

Assess the situation

Make sure the traffic situation and conditions are suitable for activation. Wait until you complete any ongoing maneuvers, such as a lane change, before activating Pilot Assist.

Activating Pilot Assist

When it's safe to do so, press the Pilot Assist button on the steering wheel once.

Activation is confirmed in the instrument panel. Your speed at the time of activation becomes the target speed.

If Pilot Assist is set to adapt to the road's speed limit, it will use the current speed limit as its target speed.

When Pilot Assist is active, you can adjust the target speed and the time interval to vehicles ahead using the steering wheel buttons.

 Tip

Resuming Pilot Assist

If you recently used Pilot Assist, you can use the resume button on the steering wheel to activate Pilot Assist and resume your last settings.

Pressing the resume button when Pilot Assist is already active sets the current speed limit as your target speed.

Pilot Assist symbols

When Pilot Assist is active, the instrument panel will show its level of support shown via symbols and graphics.
