72Protection against theft
Safety

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 yourvehicle.I n
this way ,the distance you have selected is main-
tained.
If DISTRONIC PLUS detects afaster-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 asporty driving style
when you have selected the Sor S+ driving pro-
gram (
Ypage 144). Acceleration behind the
vehicle in front or to the set speed is then notice-
abl ym ore dynamic. If you have selected the Cor
E driving program, the vehicle accelerates more
gently. This setting is recommended in stop-
and-start traffic.
Changing lanes
If you change to the passing lane, DISTRONIC
PLUS supports you when:
Ryou are driving faster than 45 mph (70 km/h)
Ryou switch on the appropriate turn signal
RDISTRONIC PLUS does not detect adanger of
collision
If these conditions are fulfilled,y ourv ehicle is
accelerated. Acceleration wil lbeinterrupted if
changing lanes takes too long or if the distance
betwee nyourv ehicle and the vehicle in front
becomes too small.
iWhen you change lanes, DISTRONIC PLUS
monitors the left lane on left-hand-drive vehi-
cles or the right lane on right-hand-drive vehi-
cles.
Stopping

If you wish to exit the vehicle,a lways turn off
DISTRONIC PLUS and secure the vehicle
against rolling away.
For further information on deactivating
DISTRONIC PLUS (
Ypage 167).

front is stopping, it brakes you rvehicle until it is
stationary.
Once you rvehicle is stationary,itr emains sta-
tionary and you do not need to depresst he
brake.
iAfter atime, the electric parking brake
secures the vehicle and relieves the service
brake.
iDepending on the specifiedm inimum dis-
tance, you rvehicle wil lcome to astandstill at
as ufficient distance behind the vehicle in
front. The specifiedm inimum distance is set
using the control on the cruise control lever.
