Activating Pilot Assist
When driving, a grey Pilot Assist symbol in the driver information area indicates that the function is available but not yet activated.
Pilot Assist is only available for activation if it's enabled in settings.1
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 ongoing manoeuvres, such as a lane change, are completed before activating Pilot Assist.
Activating Pilot Assist when driving
When appropriate, pull the right-hand steering wheel stalk all the way down.
Activation is confirmed in the driver information area.
The first time you activate Pilot Assist during a drive, your speed at the time of activation becomes the set speed.
If you recently used Pilot Assist, your previous set speed might be used instead. In this case, the previously set speed is visible next to the speedometer.
If Pilot Assist is set to adapt to the speed limit, it will use the current speed limit as its target speed.
