X
If you want to pull away with
DISTRONIC PLUS: remove your foot from
the brake pedal.
X Briefly pull the cruise control lever towards
you :.
or
X Accelerate briefly.
Your vehicle pulls away and adapts its
speed to that of the vehicle in front. If no
vehicle is detected in front, your vehicle
accelerates to the set speed.
i The vehicle can also pull away when it is
facing an unidentified obstacle or is driving
on a different line from another vehicle. The vehicle then brakes automatically. There is
a risk of an accident. Be ready to brake at all
times.
If there is no vehicle in front, DISTRONIC
PLUS operates in the same way as cruise
control.
If DISTRONIC PLUS detects that the vehicle in front has slowed down, it brakes your vehicle.
In this way, the distance you have selected is maintained.
If DISTRONIC PLUS detects a faster-moving
vehicle in front, it increases the driving speed.
However, the vehicle is only accelerated up to the speed you have stored.
Selecting the drive program
DISTRONIC PLUS supports a sporty driving
style when you select the Sdrive program
(Y page 171). Acceleration behind the vehicle
in front or to the set speed is then noticeably
more dynamic. If you have selected the E
driving program, the vehicle accelerates
more gently. This setting is recommended in
stop-and-start traffic. Changing lanes
If you change to the overtaking lane,
DISTRONIC PLUS supports you if:
R you are driving faster than 70 km/h
R you switch on the respective turn signal
R DISTRONIC PLUS does not detect a danger
of collision
If these conditions are met, your vehicle is
accelerated. Acceleration will be interrupted
if changing lanes takes too long or if the dis-
tance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front becomes too small.
i When you change lanes, DISTRONIC
PLUS monitors the left lane (on left-hand-
drive vehicles) or the right lane (on right-
hand-drive vehicles).
Road and traffic conditions i
The following function is not operational
in all countries.
DISTRONIC PLUS uses additional information
from your navigation system so that it can
adapt to certain traffic situations. This is the
case if, while following a vehicle, DISTRONIC
PLUS is active and you:
R approach or drive around a roundabout
R approach a T-junction
R turn off at a motorway exit
Even if the vehicle in front leaves the detec-
tion range, DISTRONIC PLUS temporarily
maintains the current driving speed and does not accelerate. This is based on the current
map data in the navigation system. Driving systems
195Driving and parking Z

Warning in the multifunction display
If fatigue or increasing lapses in concentra-
tion are detected, a warning appears in the
multifunction display: Attention Assist: Attention Assist:
Take a break!
Take a break!
In addition to the message shown in the mul-
tifunction display, you will then hear a warn-
ing tone.
X If necessary, take a break.
X Confirm the message by pressing the a
button on the steering wheel.
On long journeys, take regular breaks in good
time to allow yourself to rest properly. If you
do not take a break and ATTENTION ASSIST
continues to detect increasing lapses in con- centration, you will be warned again after
15 minutes at the earliest. This will only hap-
pen if ATTENTION ASSIST still detects typical indicators of fatigue or increasing lapses in
concentration.
If a warning is output in the multifunction dis-
play, a service station search is performed in
COMAND Online. You can select a service
station and navigation to this service station
will then begin. This function can be activated
and deactivated in COMAND Online. Traffic Sign Assist
General notes Traffic Sign Assist displays the maximum
speed permitted and overtaking restrictions
to the driver in the instrument cluster. Driving onto a section of road in the wrong direction triggers a warning. Traffic Sign Assist detects
traffic signs with camera system :attached
behind the top of the windscreen. The data
and general traffic regulations stored in the
navigation system are also used to determine
the current speed limit.
If a traffic sign that is relevant to your vehicle is passed, the display of the speed limits and
overtaking restrictions is updated.
The display can also be updated without a
visible traffic sign if:
R the vehicle changes roads (e.g. motorway
exit or slip road)
R a village or town boundary is passed which
is stored in the digital map
R the last traffic sign detected by the camera
has not been repeated
If a sign indicating the end of a restriction
(speed limit or overtaking restriction) is
passed, the sign is displayed for five seconds. The applicable traffic regulation then appears
in the instrument cluster.
The camera also detects traffic signs with a
restriction indicated by an additional sign
(e.g. in wet conditions).
The traffic signs are only displayed with the
restrictions if:
R the regulation must be observed with the
restriction, or
R Traffic Sign Assist is unable to determine
whether the restriction applies
If Traffic Sign Assist is unable to determine a
maximum permitted speed from any of the
available sources, no speed limit is displayed
in the instrument cluster either. Driving systems
227Driving and parking Z

Traffic Sign Assist is not available in all coun-
tries. In this case, display :is shown in the
speedometer.
Important safety notes Traffic Sign Assist is only an aid and is not
always able to correctly display speed limits
and overtaking restrictions. Traffic signs
always have priority over the Traffic Sign
Assist display.
The system may be either functionally
impaired or temporarily unavailable if:
R visibility is poor, e.g. due to snow, rain, fog
or spray
R there is glare, e.g. from the sun being low in
the sky
R there is dirt, ice or misting on the wind-
screen in the vicinity of the camera
R traffic signs are hard to detect (dirt, ice,
snow)
R the traffic signs are insufficiently lit at night
R signs are ambiguous (e.g. traffic signs on
construction sites or in adjacent lanes)
R the information in the digital street map of
the navigation system is incorrect or out of
date
Activating Traffic Sign Assist X
Activate the Traffic Sign Assist display
using the on-board computer
(Y page 258).
If you have activated the display of Traffic
Sign Assist in the on-board computer, the traffic regulations (speed limits and overtak-
ing restrictions) are displayed in the instru-
ment cluster. The wrong-way warning
remains active even when the display has
been deactivated.

or submenu and display messages. Head-up display
General notes The head-up display projects information
from the navigation system and the driver
assistance system above the dashboard into
the driver's field of vision.
A requirement for the display of the contents
is that each of the functions (navigation,
DISTRONIC PLUS, Traffic Sign Assist) is avail- able in the vehicle and is switched on.
The head-up display allows the driver to see
all of the information without having to take
his eyes off the road.
Important safety notes The head-up display is only an aid and is not a
substitute for attentive driving.
Speed limits and overtaking restrictions are
not always correctly displayed. Traffic signs
always have priority over the Traffic Sign
Assist display.
The visibility of the head-up display is influ-
enced by the following conditions:
R the driver's seat position
R the positioning of the display image
R the general light conditions
R sunglasses with polarisation filters
R wet road surfaces
R blocking of sunlight by objects on the dis-
play cover
In the event of extreme sunlight, sections of
the display may fade. This can be reversed by
switching the head-up display off and on
again.
i Vehicles with the head-up display are
equipped with a special windscreen. Should repairs be necessary, have the
windscreen replaced at a qualified special-
ist workshop.
