xDrive*

xDrive is the all-wheel-drive system of your ve‐
hicle. Concerted action by the xDrive and DSC
further optimize traction and driving dynamics.
The xDrive all-wheel-drive system variably dis‐
tributes the drive forces to the front and rear
axles as demanded by the driving situation and
road surface.

HDC Hill Descent Control*

HDC is a downhill driving assistant that auto‐
matically controls vehicle speed on steep down‐
hill gradients. Without requiring brake applica‐
tion, the vehicle moves at slightly more than
twice walking speed.
HDC can be activated at vehicle speeds below
approx. 22 mph/35 km/h. When the vehicle
moves down steep gradients at speeds below
approx. 22 mph/35 km/h, it automatically re‐
duces speed down to slightly more than normal
walking speed and then keeps it constant.
While you are actively braking, the system is on
standby. The system does not brake the vehicle
during this time.

Increasing or decreasing vehicle speed

You can specify your desired speed in the range
from approx. 4 mph/6 km/h to approx. 15 mph/
25 km/h using the rocker switch of the cruise
control on the steering wheel. You can change
the vehicle speed by depressing the accelerator
lightly.

▷

Press up the rocker switch to the point of
resistance: the speed increases gradually.

▷

Press up the rocker switch past the point of
resistance: the speed increases while the
rocker switch is pressed.

▷

Press down the rocker switch to the point of
resistance: the speed decreases gradually.

▷

Press down the rocker switch past the point
of resistance: when driving forward, the
speed decreases to approx. 6 mph/10 km/h;
when driving backwards, the speed de‐
creases to approx. 4 mph/6 km/h.

ton lights up.
