WARNING
ARNING Risk of an accident caused by a
malfunction in BAS(Brake Assist System)
If BAS is malfunctioning, the braking distance
in an emer gency braking situation is
increased. #
Dep ress the brake pedal with full forc e in
emer gency braking situations. ABS pre-
ve nts the wheels from locking. The Brake Assist System (BAS) supports
your
emer gency braking situation with additional brake
fo rc e.
If yo u depress the brake pedal quickl y,BAS is
activated:
R BAS automatically boosts the brake pressure.
R BAS can shor tenth e braking distance. R
ABS pr events the wheels from locking.

WARNING
ARNING Risk of accident in poor road
and weather conditions
In poor road and weather conditions, the
trailer stabilisation cannot pr event lurching of
th eve hicle/trailer combination. Trailers with a
high cent reofgrav ity may tip over before
ESP ®
de tects this. #
Always adapt your driving style tosuit
th e cur rent road and weather conditions. When driving with a trailer, ESP
®
can stabilise
yo ur vehicle if the trailer begins toswer vefrom
side toside:
R ESP ®
trailer stabilisation is active abo ve
speeds of 65 km/h.
R Slight swerving is reduced bymeans of a tar-
ge ted, individual brake application on one
side.
R Intheev ent of se vere swerving, the operating
energy output is also reduced and all wheels
are braked.
ESP ®
trailer stabilisation may be impaired or may
not function if:
R The trailer is not connected cor rectly or is not
de tected proper lyby theve hicle. 214

When Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC is acti va-

to thero ute events ahead. Depending on the drive
prog ram selected, theve hicle neg otiates a route
ev ent ahead in an economical, comfor table or
dynamic manner. When thero ute event has been
passed, theve hicle accelerates again tothe
stored speed. The set distance totheve hicle in
front, vehicles de tected ahead and speed restric-

Yo u can activate and deactivate route-based
speed adap tation in the multimedia system
(/ page 229).
The following route events are take n into account:
R Bends R

R Turns and exits
R Tra1c jams ahead (only with Live Tra1c Infor-

% When theto ll station is reached, Active Dis-

R Driving on slowing-down lanes
R Driving on lanes adjacent toslowing-down
