Distronic displays in the speedometer
dial
1 Set speed
If Distronic is activated, one or two seg-
ments come on around the set speed.
Warning! G
Close attention to road and traffic condi-
tions is imperative at all times, regardless of
whether or not Distronic is activated.
Use of Distronic can be dangerous on wind-
ing roads or in heavy traffic because condi-
tions do not allow safe driving at a steady
speed.
Distronic will not react to stationary objects
in the roadway (e.g. a stopped vehicle in a
traffic jam or a disabled vehicle). Distronic
will also not respond to oncoming vehicles.
Switch off Distronic:
ț when changing from the left to the right
lane if vehicles are moving more slowly
in the left lane
ț when entering a turn lane or highway off
ramp
ț in complex driving situations, such as in
highway construction zones
In these situations, Distronic will continue to
maintain the set speed unless deactivated.
Distronic is designed and intended only to
maintain a set speed and keep a set dis-
tance from moving objects in front of it.
Warning! G
The “Resume” function should only be oper-
ated if the driver is fully aware of the previ-
ously set speed and wishes to resume this
particular preset speed.

The vehicle speed displayed on the speed-
ometer can briefly vary from the speed setting
on the Distronic system.
