▌Function of Active Speed Limit Assist
If a change in the speed limit of 20 km/h or more
is detected and automatic adoption of speed lim-
its is activated, the new speed limit is automati-
cally adopted as the stored speed (
The driven speed is adjusted when the vehicle is
level with the traffic sign at the latest. In the case
of signs indicating entry into an urban area, the
speed is adapted according to the speed permit-
ted within the urban area. The speed limit display
in the Instrument Display is always updated when
the vehicle is level with the traffic sign.
If there is no speed restriction on an unlimited
stretch of road (e.g. on a motorway), the recom-
mended speed is automatically adopted as the
stored speed. The system uses the speed stored
on an unlimited stretch of road as the recommen-
ded speed. If you do not alter the stored speed on
an unlimited stretch of road, the recommended
speed is 130 km/h.
If Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC has been put
into passive mode by pressing the accelerator
pedal, only speed limits which are higher than the
set speed are adopted.
Observe the notes on driving systems and your
responsibility; you may otherwise fail to recognise
dangers ( page 212).

The system limits of Traffic Sign Assist apply to
the detection of traffic signs (
Speed limits below 20 km/h are not automatically
adopted by the system as the stored speed. Tem-
porary speed restrictions (e.g. for a certain time
or due to weather conditions) cannot be properly
detected by the system. The maximum permissi-
ble speed applying to a vehicle with a trailer is not
detected by the system.
Adjust the speed in these situations.
& WARNING Risk of accident due to Active
Speed Limit Assist adapting the vehicle's
speed
The speed adopted by Active Speed Limit
Assist may be too high or incorrect in some
individual cases, such as:
at speed limits below 20 km/h
R
in wet conditions or in fog
R
when towing a trailer
R
Ensure that the driven speed complies

with traffic regulations.

traffic and weather conditions.
▌Function of route-based speed adaptation
When Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC is activa-
ted, the vehicle speed will be adapted accordingly
to the route events ahead. Depending on the drive
program selected, the vehicle negotiates a route
event ahead in an economical, comfortable or
dynamic manner. When the route event has been
passed, the vehicle accelerates again to the
stored speed. The set distance to the vehicle in
front, vehicles detected ahead and speed restric-
tions ahead are taken into account.
You can activate and deactivate route-based
speed adaptation in the multimedia system
( page 231).
