Distronic displays in the speedometer
dial
G
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!
Close attention to road and traffic condi-
tions is imperative at all times, regardless of
whether or not Distronic is activated.
Warning!
G
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.
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.
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.

ometer can briefly vary from the speed setting
on the Distronic system.
ț
ț
when entering a turn lane or highway off
ramp

maintain the set speed unless deactivated.
