signal from a vehicle crossing your own
path. If you activate Distronic Plus while
stopped at traffic lights with traffic cross-
ing, for example, your vehicle may inad-
vertently pull away.

do not exceed a set speed. You can set a
variable or permanent limit speed:
Variable for speed limits, e.g. in built-
up areas
Permanent for long-term speed restric-
tions, e.g. for driving on win-
ter tyres
