Setting a specified minimum distance
You can set the specified minimum distance for
Distance Pilot DISTRONIC by varying the time
span between one and two seconds. With this
function, you can set the minimum distance that
Distance Pilot DISTRONIC maintains to the vehi-
cle in front, dependent on the vehicle speed. You
can see this distance in the multifunction dis-
play ( page 145).
Y
The specified minimum distance can be
changed while Distance Pilot DISTRONIC is
switched on or off.
Make sure that you maintain a sufficiently safe
distance from the vehicle in front. Adjust the
distance to the vehicle in front if necessary.
