What is Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)?  

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is an advanced form of cruise control that automatically adjusts your vehicle's speed to maintain a safe distance from the car in front of you. Unlike traditional cruise control, which keeps your car at a constant speed, ACC uses radar and cameras to monitor traffic conditions and adjust speed accordingly. This functionality enhances driving comfort and significantly improves safety by reducing the likelihood of collisions and helping drivers maintain better situational awareness.  

Activating Adaptive Cruise Control in Your Mercedes-Benz  

Activating ACC in your Mercedes-Benz is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to turn it on:

  • Locate the ACC Controls: These are usually found on the steering wheel or a dedicated stalk.
  • Turn on ACC: Press the ACC activation button.
  • Set Your Desired Speed: Use the cruise control lever or buttons to set your preferred speed.
  • Adjust the Following Distance: Use the distance setting buttons to choose the gap between your car and the vehicle ahead.  

Dashboard symbols will illuminate when ACC is active, indicating that the system monitors traffic and adjusts speed as needed.

Understanding the Mercedes-Benz Adaptive Cruise Control Display and Indicators  


The ACC interface on your dashboard provides essential information about the system's status. Key indicators include:  

  • ACC Activation Icon: Confirms that ACC is turned on.
  • Following Distance Indicator: Displays the set following distance.
  • Speed Setting Display: Shows the current speed setting.
  • Alerts and Warnings: Notify you of system issues or necessary driver interventions.  

If you encounter display issues, check your vehicle's manual for troubleshooting tips or consult a professional.  


Using Mercedes-Benz Adaptive Cruise Control in Different Driving Scenarios  


ACC adapts to various driving conditions:  

  • Highway Driving: Maintains a steady speed and safe distance, reducing driver fatigue on long trips.
  • Stop-and-Go Traffic: Automatically stops and starts your car, easing the stress of congested traffic.
  • Night Driving and Adverse Weather: Enhances safety by maintaining optimal following distances, even in low-visibility conditions.   

What are the Safety Features of Mercedes-Benz Adaptive Cruise Control?  

Mercedes-Benz ACC is equipped with several safety features, including:  

  • Collision Prevention Assistance: Warns you and applies brakes if a collision is imminent.
  • Lane-Keeping and Steering Assist: This feature helps you stay within your lane and provides gentle steering inputs to keep you centered.  

How to Maintain and Update Your Mercedes-Benz Adaptive Cruise Control  


Regular maintenance ensures your ACC system functions optimally. Follow these tips:
