Setting the following distance in
DISTRONIC Plus
The distance setting switch for the target
distance is located on the DISTRONIC Plus
lever.
!
Setting the automatic transmission to neu-
tral position N while driving cancels the
DISTRONIC Plus. However, the automatic trans-
mission should not be set to neutral position N
while driving except to coast when the vehicle is
in danger of skidding (e.g. on icy roads).
You can set the specified following dis-
tance for DISTRONIC Plus by varying the
time setting between 1.0 and 2.0 seconds.
Using this time setting and the current
speed of your vehicle, DISTRONIC Plus cal-
culates and sets the required following dis-
tance to the preceding vehicle. The set
distance will be shown in the multifunction
display.
i Depressing the accelerator pedal does not
deactivate DISTRONIC Plus. After brief accelera-
tion (e.g. for passing), DISTRONIC Plus will re-
sume to the last set speed.
