Fault data
Compone ntsc ritical for vehicl eoperation are
equipped with fault data memories as stand-
ard. There are also memories dedicated to
storing the technica lreactions of vehicle
component stodriving situations (e.g. the
trigge ring of an airbag ,ESP ®
intervention). This data is used exclusively to:
R assist in the rectification of faults and
defects
R help Mercedes-Benz optimise and develop

If thes
econditions ar efulfilled ,your vehicle
will accelerate. Acceleration will be interrup-
ted if changin glanes takes too long or the
distanc ebetween your vehicle and the vehi-
cle in fron tbecomes too small. G
Risk of accident
DI ST RONIC PLUS and Active Blind Spot Assist
are only an aid designed to assist driving.
The ydon ot relieve you of the responsibility
of payin gattention. The driver remains fully
responsible for the vehicle's distance from
other vehicles, the vehicle's speed and for
braking in good time. Always pay attention to
traffic conditions and your surroundings. Oth-
erwise, you may fail to recognise dangers in
time, cause an accident and injure yourself
and others.
Vehicles with COMAND APS/Audio 50
APS
i The following functions are not available
in all countries.
DISTRONIC PLUS uses additional information
from your navigation system so that it can
react appropriately to certain traffic situa-
tions. This is the case when, following another
vehicle with the help of DISTRONIC PLUS,
you:
R approach or drive through aroundabout
R approach or tur nataTjunction
R turn off at amotorway exit
Even if the vehicle in front leaves the detec-
tion range, DI STRONIC PLUS temporarily
maintains the current driving speed and does
not accelerate. This is base donthe current
ma pd ata in the navigation system. Roundabout (example)
The current spee
dismaintained:
R approximately 10 seconds before reaching
the roundabout/T junction and approx-
imately 1.5 seconds in the roundabout/
after the Tjunction.
R approximately 12 seconds before reaching
am otorway exit and approximately 4sec-
onds after the motorwa yexit
Afterwards ,the vehicle accelerates bac kto
the set speed you specified.
Stopping G
Risk of accident
The DISTRONIC PLUS braking effec tisc an-
celled and the vehicle can start movin gif:
R DISTRONIC PLUS is deactivated using the
cruis econtrol lever.
R you accelera te.
R the syste morthe power supply is disrup-
ted, e.g. due to batter yfailure.
R the electrical system in the engine com-
partmen torthe fuses hav ebeen tampered
with.
R the batter yisdisconnected. G
