Battery fuse MERCEDES-BENZ AMG GT S 2016 C190 Owner's Manual

XIf you want to pull away with DISTRONIC
PLUS:remove your foot from the brake pedal.
XBriefly pull the cruise control lever towards
you:.
or
XAccelerate briefly.
Your vehicle pulls away and adapts its speed
to that of the vehicle in front. If no vehicle is
detected in front, your vehicle accelerates to the set speed.
iThe vehicle can also pull away when it is
facing an unidentified obstacle or is driving on
a different line from another vehicle. The vehi-
cle then brakes automatically. There is a risk
of an accident. Be ready to brake at all times.
If there is no vehicle in front, DISTRONIC PLUS
operates in the same way as cruise control.
If DISTRONIC PLUS detects that the vehicle in
front has slowed down, it brakes your vehicle. In
this way, the distance you have selected is main-
tained.
If DISTRONIC PLUS detects a faster-moving
vehicle in front, it increases the driving speed.
However, the vehicle is only accelerated up to
the speed you have stored.
Selecting the drive program
DISTRONIC PLUS supports a sporty driving style
when you have selected the Sor S+ drive pro-
gram (see the vehicle Operator's Manual).
Acceleration behind the vehicle in front or to the set speed is then noticeably more dynamic.
When you select the Cdrive program, th e v
ehi-
cle accelerates more gently. This setting is rec-
ommended in stop-and-start traffic.
Changing lanes

PLUS supports you when:
Ryou are driving faster than 45 mph (70 km/h)
Ryou switch on th eappropriat etur nsignal
