When
theve hicle nears an event, ECO Assist will
calculate the optimal speed for minimal energy
consum ption based on the distance and speed.
"Foot o. the accelerator" recommendation 3will
appear on the inst rument displa y.
If yo uta ke your foot o. the accelerator pedal in
good time, there maining segments on the display
will successively turn green until theeve nt sh own
is reached. The driv etra in will be set for minimal
energy consum ption. The vehicle will recuperate
autonomously and thus charge the high-voltage
batter y.
% You can also manually increase or reduce
re cuperation. Ho wever, ECO Assist is availa-
ble only in thehà setting (/ page 156).
If th ere is no response to"Foot o. the accelera-
to r" recommendation 3,the segments will
re main white.
The event will be shown for a short time aTer it
has been passed.
If th eev ent in volves a vehicle in front, all seg-
ments will immediately turn green once there is a
re sponse to"Foot o. the accelerator" prom pt3 . If ECO Assist cann
otidentify a recommendation
fo r adjusting the driving style forth eev ent ahead,
no thing will be displa yed. The system will be pas-
sive.

ECO Assist can function even more precisely if
th ero ute is adhered towhen route guidance is
active. The basic function is also available without
active route guidance. Not all information and
tra1c situations can be fore seen. The quality
depends on theav ailable map data.
ECO Assist is only an aid. The driver is responsible
fo rke eping a safe distance from theve hicle in
front, forve hicle speed and for braking in good
time. You must be ready tobrake at all times ir re-
specti veof whe ther the system is active.
The system may be impaired or may not function
in thefo llowing situations:
R Ifth ere is poor visibility, e.g. due toinsu1cient
illumination of thero ad, highly variable shade
conditions, rain, sno w,fog or heavy spr ay.
R Ifth ere is glare, e.g. from oncoming tra1c,
direct sunlight or re0ections. R
Ifth e windscreen is dirty in the vicinity of the
multifunction camera.
R Ifth e multifunction camera is misted up, dam-
aged or obscured.
R Ifro ad signs are hard todetect, e.g. due to
dirt, snow or insu1cient lighting, or because
th ey are obscured.
R Ifth e digital road map of the navigation sys-
te m has incor rect or outdated information.
R If signs are ambiguous, e.g. road signs in road-
wo rks or in adjacent lanes.
R Ifth era dar sensors are dirty or obscured.

WARNING
ARNING Risk of accident from accelera-
tion or braking byActive Distance Assist
DISTRONIC
Ac tive Distance Assist DISTRONIC may accel-
erate or brake in thefo llowing cases, for
ex ample:
R Ifth eve hicle pulls away using Active Dis-
ta nce Assist DISTRONIC.
R Ifth e stored speed is called up and is con-
siderably faster or sl owerth an the cur-
re ntly driven speed. R
IfAc tive Distance Assist DISTRONIC no
longer de tects a vehicle in front or does
not react toreleva nt objects. #
Always carefully obser vethe tra1c con-
ditions and be ready tobrake at all
times. #
Take into account the tra1c situation
before calling up the stored speed. &

WARNING
ARNING Risk of accident due toinsu1-
cient deceleration byActive Distance
Assist DISTRONIC
Ac tive Distance Assist DISTRONIC brakes your
ve hicle with up to50% of the possible deceler-
ation. If this deceleration is not su1cient,
Ac tive Distance Assist DISTRONIC alerts you
with a visual and acoustic warning. #
Adjust your speed and maintain a suita-
ble distance from theve hicle in front. #

Tr a1c Sign Assist de tects tra1c signs with the
multifunction camera (/ page 188). It assists
yo uby displaying de tected speed limits and over-
ta king restrictions in the Instrument Displa y.
Obser vethe no tes on driving systems and your
re sponsibility; you may otherwise failto recognise
dangers (/ page 188).
Since Tra1c Sign Assist also uses the data stored
in the navigation system, it can update the display
in thefo llowing situations without de tecting tra1c
signs.
If th e system de tects that you are driving onto a
section of road in the wrong direction of tr avel, it
triggers a warning.
The camera also de tects tra1c signs with a
re striction indicated byan additional sign (e.g.
when wet). These are only displa yed if a restric-
tion applies or if the system cannot clear lyde ter-
mine whe ther there striction applies. 214 214
