Warning! G
Distronic brakes your vehicle with a maxi-
mum of 6.5 ft/s
2
(2 m/s
2
). This corresponds
to about 20% of the maximum decelera-
tion ability of your vehicle.
Distronic brakes the vehicle in an effort to
restore the preset distance or to maintain
the speed. The brake pedal is automatical-
ly applied as this happens which results in
the brake pedal moving.
Keep driver’s foot area clear at all times,
including the area under the brake pedal.
Objects stored in this area may impair ped-
al movement which could interfere with
the braking ability of the Distronic system.
Do not place your foot under the brake
pedal – your foot could become caught.
