=
Distance warning lamp
If the DISTRONIC PLUS is activated,
marker ; indicates the set speed.
The vehicle speed displayed on the
speedometer can briefly vary from the speed
setting on the DISTRONIC PLUS system.

dial comes on between the speed of the
vehicle ahead : and the set speed.

lamp · in the instrument cluster comes
on and an intermittent warning sounds.

Immediately apply the brake to avoid a
collision.
Under no circumstances should the driver
await the intermittent warning sound
before braking. See the following warning
note.
The intermittent warning sound ceases and
the distance warning lamp · goes out
when the necessary distance to the vehicle
ahead is again established.

Warning!
An intermittent warning sounds and the
distance warning lamp · in the instrument
cluster is illuminated if the DISTRONIC PLUS
system calculates that the distance to the
vehicle ahead and your vehicle’s current
speed indicate that the DISTRONIC PLUS will
not be capable of slowing the vehicle
sufficiently to maintain the preset following
distance, which creates a danger of a
collision.
Immediately brake the vehicle to increase
your distance to the preceding vehicle. The
warning sound is intended as a final caution
in which you should intercede with your own
braking inputs to avoid a potentially
dangerous situation. Do not wait for the
operation of the warning signal to intercede
with your own braking. This will result in
potentially dangerous emergency braking
which will not always result in an impact being
avoided.
Tailgating increases the risk of an accident.
G
Warning!
The DISTRONIC PLUS brakes your vehicle
with a maximum deceleration of 13 ft/s
2
(4 m/s
2
). This corresponds to approximately
40% of the maximum deceleration of your
vehicle.
