Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC
Function of Active Distance Assist
DISTRONIC
Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC maintains the
set speed on free-flowing roads. If vehicles in
front are detected, the set distance is main‐
tained, if necessary, until the vehicle comes to a
halt. The vehicle accelerates or brakes depend‐
ing on the distance to the vehicle in front and
the set speed. The speed (in the range between
15 mph (20 km/h) and 130 mph (210 km/h))
and the distance to the vehicle in front are set
and saved on the steering wheel.
Other features of Active Distance Assist
DISTRONIC:
R
Adjusts the driving style depending on the
selected drive program (fuel-saving, comfort‐
able or dynamic) (→ page 138)
R
Reacts to stationary vehicles detected in
urban speed ranges (except bicycles and
motorcycles)
R
Initiates acceleration to the stored speed if
the turn signal indicator is switched on to
change to the overtaking lane.
R
Takes one-sided overt aking restrictions into
account on highways or on multi-lane roads
with separate roadways (country-dependent).
Vehicles with Active Parking Assist: if the
vehicle has been braked to a standstill on multi-
lane, separate roadways by Active Distance
Assist DISTRONIC, it can automatically follow
the vehicle in front driving off again within
30 seconds. If a critical situation is detected
when driving off, a visual and acoustic warning is
given indicating that the dr iver must now take
control of the vehicle. The vehicle is not acceler‐
ated any further.
