Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC
Function of Active Distance Assist
DISTRONIC
Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC maintains the
set speed on free-flowing roads. If vehicles in
front are detected, the set distance is main‐
tained, if necessary, until the vehicle comes to a
halt. The vehicle accelerates or brakes depend‐
ing on the distance to the vehicle in front and
the set speed. The speed and distance to the
vehicle in front are set and saved on the steering
wheel on vehicles without the Driving Assistance
Package, in the range between 20 km/h and
200 km/h and, on vehicles with the Driving
Assistance Package, in the range between
20 km/h and 210 km/h.

Driving and parking 243
Vehicles with Active Parking Assist and Driv‐
ing Assistance Package: if the vehicle has
been braked to a standstill on multi-lane, sepa‐
rate carriageways by Active Distance Assist
DISTRONIC, it can automatically follow the vehi‐
cle in front driving off again within 30 seconds. If
a critical situation is detected when driving off, a
visual and acoustic warning is given indicating
that the driver must now take control of the vehi‐
cle. The vehicle is not accelerated any further.
Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC is only an aid.
The driver is responsible for keeping a safe dis‐
tance to the vehicle in front, for vehicle speed
and for braking in good time.
