The system may be impaired or may not function
in thefo llowing situations,for example:
R In sno w,rain, fog, heavy spr ay, if there is glare,
in direct sunlight or in greatly varying light

R Ifth ere are nar row vehicles in front, such as
bicycles or mo torc yc les.
In addition, on slippery roads, braking or acceler-

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-

IfAc tive Distance Assist DISTRONIC no
longer de tects a vehicle in front or does
not react toreleva nt objects. #

WARNING
ARNING Risk of accident due toinsu1-

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-

In especially critical situations,
Active Brake Assist
can initiate autonomous braking directl y.In this
case, thewa rning lamp and warning tone occur
simultaneously with the braking application.
If yo u apply the brake yourself in a critical situa-
tion or apply the brake during autonomous brak-
ing, situation-dependent braking assistance
occurs. The brake pressure increases up tomaxi-
mum full-s top braking if necessar y.
Obser vethe no tes on driving systems and your

dangers (/ page 213). If autonomous braking or situation-dependent
