Technical terms
Distronic*
Engine oil viscosity
FSS (Canada vehicles)
A driving convenience cruise control
system which helps the driver maintain
a pre-selected speed:
Measurement for the inner friction (vis-
cosity) of the oil at different tempera-
tures. The higher the temperature an
oil can tolerate without becoming thin,
or the lower the temperature it can tol-
erate without becoming viscous, the
better the viscosity.
(Flexible Service System)
Maintenance service indicator in the
multifunction display that informs the
driver when the next vehicle mainte-
nance service is due. FSS evaluates
engine temperature, oil level, vehicle
speed, engine speed, distance driven
and the time elapsed since your last
maintenance service, and calls for the
next maintenance service accordingly.

Distronic will reduce your vehicle

duced throttle and up to 20% brak-
ing power to maintain the preset
minimum following distance.
