If the message:
"DISTRONIC PLUS
Currently Unavailable
See Oper. Manual"
disappears during driving and the last speed
stored flashes for approximately 5 seconds, the
dirt (e.g. slush) has dissolved; DISTRONIC Plus is
available again.
Another cause might be that the radar sen-
sors have been manually switched off in
the instrument cluster control system.
Please verify that the radar sensors are
switched on ( page 302).
Turns and bends
In turns or bends, DISTRONIC Plus may not
detect a moving vehicle in front, or it may
detect one too soon. This may cause your
vehicle to brake late or unexpectedly.

Offset driving
A vehicle traveling in your lane but offset
from your direct line of travel may not be
detected by DISTRONIC Plus. There will be
insufficient distance to the vehicle ahead.
