Warning! G
Distronic cannot take street and traffic
conditions into account. Only use Distronic
if the road, weather and traffic conditions
make it advisable to travel at a steady
speed.
Warning! G
Use of Distronic can be dangerous on slip-
pery roads. Rapid changes in tire traction
can result in wheel spin and loss of control.
Distronic does not act upon adverse sight
distance conditions. Do not use Distronic
during conditions of fog and heavy rain,
snow or sleet.
Warning! G
Distronic cannot take weather conditions
into account. Switch off Distronic or do not
turn it on if:
앫 roads are slippery or covered with
snow or ice. The wheels could lose trac-
tion while braking or accelerating, and
the vehicle could skid
앫 the sensor is dirty or visibility is dimin-
ished due to snow, rain or fog. The dis-
tance control could be impaired
Always pay attention to traffic conditions
even while Distronic is switched on. Other-
wise, you may not be able to recognize
dangerous situations until it is too late and
could cause an accident resulting in per-
sonal or fatal injury to you or others.
Warning! G
Close attention to road and traffic condi-
tions is imperative at all times, regardless
of whether or not Distronic is activated.
Use of Distronic can be dangerous on
winding roads or in heavy traffic because
conditions do not allow safe driving at a
steady speed.
Distronic will not react to stationary ob-
jects in the roadway (e.g. a stopped vehicle
in a traffic jam or a disabled vehicle). Dis-
tronic will also not respond to oncoming
vehicles.
Switch off Distronic:
앫 when changing from the left to the
right lane if vehicles are moving more
slowly in the left lane
앫 when entering a turn lane or highway
off ramp
