Pulling away
X
If the vehicle in front pulls away: remove
your foot from the brake pedal.
X Briefly pull the cruise control lever towards
you 0088.
or
X Accelerate briefly.
Your vehicle pulls away and adapts its
speed to that of the vehicle in front.
Driving
If there is no vehicle in front,D istronic Plus
operates in the same way as cruise control.
If as lower-moving vehicle is detected in front,
Distronic Plus causes your vehicle to brake
and maintain apreset distance to the vehicle
in front.
If Distronic Plus detectsaf aster-moving vehi-
cle in front,iti ncreases the driving speed, but
only up to the stored speed. G
Risk of accident
If you depress the brake, DISTRONIC PLUS is
deactivated unless your vehicle is stationary.
DISTRONIC PLUS then no longer brakes your
vehicle. The driver is fully responsible for the
vehicle's distance from other vehicles, its
speed and for braking in good time.
Stopping G
Risk of accident
The DISTRONIC PLUS braking effect is can-
celled and the vehicle can start moving if:
R DISTRONIC PLUS is deactivated using the
cruise control lever.
R you accelerate.
R the system or the power supply is disrup-
ted, e.g. due to battery failure.
R the electrical system in the engine com-
partment or the fuses are tampered with.
R the battery is disconnected. G
Risk of accident
Never get out of the vehicle when DISTRONIC
PLUS is activated.
DISTRONIC PLUS must never be operated or
deactivated by apassenger or from outside
the vehicle.
DISTRONIC PLUS does not replace the park-
ing brake and must not be used for parking.
If you wish to leave the vehicle or park it,
deactivate DISTRONIC PLUS and secure the
vehicle against rolling away.
If Distronic Plus detectst hat the vehicle in
front is stopping, it brakes your vehicle until
it is stationary.
Once your vehicle is stationary, it remains
stationary and you do not need to depress the
brake.
i Depending on the specified minimum dis-
tance, your vehicle will come to astandstill
at as ufficient distance behind the vehicle
in front.T he specified minimum distance is
set using the thumbwheel on the cruise-
control lever.
When Distronic Plus is activated and the vehi-
cle is at astandstill, awarning message
appears in the multi-function display if:
R the driver's door is opened and you release
the seat belt.
R the engine is switched off.
R the bonnet is opened.
Select Park (P)
X Move the selector lever to Pto prevent the
vehicle from rolling away.
Distronic Plus is deactivated. The warning
message in the multi-function display dis-
appears.
