Predictive efficiency
assist
Description
Applies to: vehicles with predictive efficiency assist
General information
The predictive efficiency assist helps the driver to
d rive with anticipation and therefore helps to
save fuel. The system accesses predict ive trip da
ta (including speed limits, inclines and the radius
of curves) from the navigation system*. Informa
tion from the camera-based traffic sign recogni
tion* is also applied to recogni ze traffic signs
r::;i page 109 .
The messages displayed depend on the naviga
tion data * being up-to-date and the correct iden
tification by the traffic sign recognition*.
When adaptive cruise contro l* is switched off,
the predict ive efficiency assist only provides noti
fications without controlled interventions. When
adaptive cruise control* is switched on, the sys
tem responds to upcoming situations automati
cally .
Vehicles with adaptive cruise control*
Refer to predictive control c> page 120.
Indicator in the instrument cluster display
Predictive messages appear in the instrument
cluster display to show the driver the appropriate
time to coast when a situation ahead requires
you to drive at a lower speed.
The messages are only shown if the cr uise control
system* or adaptive cruise control* is switched
off.
112
An additional indicator appears in the head-up
display* .
Symbol Meaning
Remove your foot from the acceler-
~
ator pedal to slow down, because
there is a situation ahead that re- quires a lower speed.
If you see
Driver assistance in the instrument
cluster display, the following symbols will indi
cate which situation the system is currently re
acting to .
