DISTRONIC Active Distance Assist maintains the
set speed when driving freel y.Ifve hicles are
de tected ahead, the set distance is maintained, if
necessary until theve hicle comes toa standstill.
The vehicle accelerates or brakes depending on
th e distance totheve hicle in front and the set
speed. The speed (from 20 km/h) and the dis-
ta nce totheve hicle in front are set and sa ved on
th e steering wheel.
The adjustable set speed can vary due tothefo l-
lowing factors:
R Drive prog ram selected (/ page 161) R
the stored limit speed (e.g. winter tyre limit)
(/ page 202)
R The maximum speed recommended byactive
ra nge moni toring (depending on equipment
and drive prog ram)
Other features of Active Distance Assist
DISTRONIC:
R Adjusts the driving style depending on the
selected drive prog ram (energy-saving, com-
fo rtable or dynamic) (/ page 161)
R Initiates acceleration tothe stored speed if the
turn signal indica tor is switched on tochange

The following route events are take n into account:
R Bends
R T-junctions, roundabouts and toll stations

R Tra1c jams ahead (only with Live Tra1c Infor-
mation )

ta nce Assist DISTRONIC ado ptsth e speed as

Also, the speed is reduced if the turn signal indi-
cator tochange lanes is switched on and one of
th efo llowing situations is de tected:
R Turning at junctions R
Driving on slowing-down lanes
R Driving on lanes adjacent toslowing-down
lanes
The driver is responsible forch oosing theright
speed and observing other road users. This
applies in particular tojunctions, roundabouts and
tra1c lights, as route-based speed adap tation
does not brake theve hicle toa standstill.
When route guidance is active, the /rst speed
adjustment is car ried out automaticall y.Ifth e turn
signal indicator is switched on, the selected route
is con/rmed and fur ther speed adjustment is acti-

before thero ute event.
R Ifth e driver depresses the accelerator or
brake pedal during the process.

wheel and guided bya course-co rrecting brake
application back into your lane.
Ac tive Lane Keeping Assist is available in the
