Selecting the drive program
DISTRONIC PLUS supports a sporty driving style
if you have selected the SportorSport Plus
drive 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 Comfortdrive program, the vehicle
accelerates more gently. This setting is recom-
mended in stop-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 accel- erated. Acceleration will be interrupted if chang-
ing lanes takes too long or if the distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle in front
becomes too small.
i Vehicles with COMAND Online:
when you
change lanes, DISTRONIC PLUS monitors the right lane in the case of left-side traffic or the
left lane in the case of right-side traffic.
Vehicles with Audio 20: when you change
lanes, DISTRONIC PLUS monitors the left lane on left-hand-drive vehicles or the right lane onright-hand-drive vehicles.
Vehicles with COMAND Online i
The following function is only available in
vehicles with the Driving Assistance Plus
package.
The function is not operational in all coun-
tries. 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
R approach a tollgate
Even if the vehicle in front leaves the detection
range, DISTRONIC PLUS temporarily maintains
the current driving speed and does not acceler- ate. This is based on the current map data in the
navigation system.
Afterwards, the vehicle accelerates back to the
set speed you specified.
The system takes into account the fact that
overtaking on the right is not permitted on
motorways or high-speed major roads at speeds
above 80 km/h. The driving speed is adjusted to the speed of the queue of vehicles in the adja-
cent lane to the left.
i Prevention of overtaking on the right applies
to countries where traffic drives on the right.
In countries where traffic drives on the left,
overtaking on the left is prevented accord-
ingly.
Stopping G
WARNING
When leaving the vehicle, even if it is braked
only by DISTRONIC PLUS, it could roll away if:
R there is a malfunction in the system or in
the voltage supply.
R DISTRONIC PLUS has been deactivated
with the cruise control lever, e.g. by a vehi- cle occupant or from outside the vehicle.
R the electrical system in the engine com-
partment, the battery or the fuses have
been tampered with.
R the battery is disconnected.
R the accelerator pedal has been depressed,
e.g. by a vehicle occupant.
There is a risk of an accident.
If you wish to exit the vehicle, always turn off
DISTRONIC PLUS and secure the vehicle
against rolling away. 210

cators of fatigue or increasing lapses in concen-
tration.
Vehicles with COMAND Online: if a warning is
output in the multifunction display, 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 func-
tion 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 over-
taking 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 currently
applicable traffic regulation continues to be
shown in the assistance graphic display. 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 avail- able sources, no speed limit is displayed in the
instrument cluster either. Traffic Sign Assist is not available in all coun-
tries. In this case, symbol
:is shown in the
assistance graphic display (Y page 290).
Important safety notes Traffic Sign Assist is only an aid and is not always
able to correctly display speed limits and over-
taking restrictions. Traffic signs always have pri-
ority 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 windscreen
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 con-
struction sites or in adjacent lanes)
R the information in the digital street map of the
navigation system is incorrect or out of date
Switching the message function on/off If you have activated the Traffic Sign Assist dis-
play in the on-board computer, the traffic regu-
lations (speed limits and overtaking restrictions)
are displayed in the instrument cluster for five 242

The fuel supply is interrupted to protect the
engine when the red band is reached. Outside temperature display
You should pay special attention to road condi-
tions when temperatures are around freezing
point.
Bear in mind that the outside temperature dis-
play indicates the measured air temperature
and not the road surface temperature.
The outside temperature display is in the multi-
function display (Y page 283).
A change in the outside temperature is shown in the multifunction display after a delay. Coolant temperature gauge

WARNING
If you open the bonnet while the engine is
overheating or while there is a fire in the
engine compartment, you could come into
contact with hot gases or other leaking ser-
vice products. There is a danger of injury.
Allow an overheating engine to cool down
before opening the bonnet. If there is a fire in the engine compartment, leave the bonnet
closed and notify the fire brigade.
All vehicles except PLUG-IN HYBRID vehicles:
the coolant temperature gauge is in the instru-
ment cluster on the right-hand side (Y page 32).
PLUG-IN HYBRID vehicles: the multifunction dis- play shows the coolant temperature in the
Coolant
Coolant (Ypage 292) submenu.
Under normal operating conditions and with the specified coolant level, the coolant temperature
may rise to 120 †.
At high outside temperatures and when driving
uphill, the coolant temperature may rise to the
end of the scale. Operating the on-board computer
