Driving tips
General notes
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you switch off the ignition while driving,
safety-relevant functions are only available
with limitations, or not at all. This could
affect, for example, the power steering and
the brake boosting effect. You will require
considerably more effort to steer and brake.
There is a risk of an accident.
Do not switch off the ignition while driving.
GWARNING
If you operate mobile communication equip-
ment when driving, you may be distracted
from the traffic situation. You could also
lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk of
an accident.
Only operate this equipment when the vehi-
cle is stationary.
Observe the legal requirements for the countryin which you are driving. Some jurisdictionsprohibit the driver from using a mobile phonewhile driving a vehicle.
If you make a call while driving, always usehands-free mode. Only operate the telephonewhen the traffic situation permits. If you areunsure, pull over to a safe location and stopbefore operating the telephone.
148Driving tips
Driving and parking

take advantage of engine braking. For thisyou must first activate manual gearshifting.This helps you to avoid overheating thebrakes and wearing them out excessively.
When you take advantage of engine braking,it is possible that a drive wheel will notrotate for some time, e.g. on a slippery roadsurface. This could cause damage to thedrive train. This type of damage is not cov-ered by the Mercedes-Benz warranty.
Briefly depressing the accelerator pedal ondownhill gradients while the manual drive pro-gramMis temporarily activated: the automatictransmission may switch to the last activeautomatic drive programEorS. The automatictransmission may shift to a higher gear. Thiscan reduce the engine's braking effect.
Heavy and light loads
GWARNING
If you rest your foot on the brake pedal
while driving, the braking system can over-
heat. This increases the stopping distance
and can even cause the braking system to
fail. There is a risk of an accident.
Never use the brake pedal as a footrest.
Never depress the brake pedal and the
accelerator pedal at the same time.
!Depressing the brake pedal constantlyresults in excessive and premature wear tothe brake pads.
If the brakes have been subjected to a heavyload, do not stop the vehicle immediately.Drive on for a short while. This allows the air-flow to cool the brakes more quickly.
Wet roads
If you have driven for a long time in heavy rainwithout braking, there may be a delayed reac-tion from the brakes when braking for the firsttime. This may also occur after the vehicle hasbeen washed or driven through deep water.
You have to depress the brake pedal morefirmly. Maintain a greater distance from thevehicle in front.
After driving on a wet road or having the vehi-cle washed, brake firmly while paying attentionto the traffic conditions. This will warm up the
brake discs, thereby drying them more quicklyand protecting them against corrosion.
Limited braking performance on salt-
treated roads
If you drive on salted roads, a layer of salt resi-due may form on the brake discs and brakepads. This can result in a significantly longerbraking distance.
RIn order to prevent any salt build-up, applythe brakes occasionally while paying atten-tion to the traffic conditions.
RCarefully depress the brake pedal and thebeginning and end of a journey.
RMaintain a greater distance to the vehicleahead.
Servicing the brakes
!The brake fluid level may be too low, if:
Rif the red brake warning lamp lights up inthe instrument cluster and
Ryou hear a warning tone while the engineis running
Observe additional warning messages in themultifunction display.
The brake fluid level may be too low due tobrake pad wear or leaking brake lines.
Have the brake system checked immedi-ately. Consult a qualified specialist work-shop to arrange this.
!A function or performance test should onlybe carried out on a 2-axle dynamometer. Ifyou wish to operate the vehicle on such adynamometer, please consult a qualifiedspecialist workshop in advance. You couldotherwise damage the drive train or thebrake system.
!As the ESP®system operates automati-cally, the engine and the ignition must beswitched off (the SmartKey must be in posi-tion

Selecting the drive program
Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC supports asporty driving style when you select theS+drive program (Ypage 138) or the manualdrive program (Ypage 140). Accelerationbehind the vehicle in front or to the set speedis then noticeably more dynamic. If you haveselected theE(Mercedes-AMG vehicles:C)drive program, the vehicle accelerates moregently. This setting is recommended in stop-and-start traffic.
Changing lanes
If you want to change to the overtaking laneon multi-lane roads, Active Distance AssistDISTRONIC supports you if:
Ryou are driving faster than 45 mph(70 km/h)
RActive Distance Assist DISTRONIC is main-taining the distance to a vehicle in front
Ryou switch on the appropriate turn signal
RActive Distance Assist DISTRONIC does notcurrently detect a danger of collision
If these conditions are fulfilled, your vehicle isaccelerated. Acceleration will be interrupted ifchanging lanes takes too long or if the dis-tance between your vehicle and the vehicle infront becomes too small.
Stopping
If Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC detectsthat the vehicle in front is stopping, it brakesyour vehicle until it is stationary.
Once your vehicle is stationary, it remains sta-tionary and you do not need to depress thebrake.
iAfter a time, the electric parking brakesecures the vehicle and relieves the servicebrake.
iDepending on the specified minimum dis-tance, your vehicle will come to a standstillat a sufficient distance behind the vehicle infront. The specified minimum distance is setusing the control on the cruise control lever.
When Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC isactivated, the transmission is shifted automati-cally to position]if:
Rthe driver's seat belt is not fastened and thedriver's door is open.
Rthe engine is switched off, unless it is auto-matically switched off by the ECO start/stop function.
The electric parking brake is applied automati-cally if Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC isactive when the vehicle is stationary and:
Ra system malfunction occurs.
Rthe power supply is insufficient.
If a malfunction occurs, the transmission mayalso shift to position]automatically.
Setting a speed
Keep in mind that it may take a brief momentuntil the vehicle has accelerated or braked tothe speed set.
XPress the cruise control lever upCfor ahigher speed or downDfor a lower speed.
XTo adjust the set speed in 1 mph incre-ments (1 km/h increments):briefly pushthe cruise control lever upCor downDtothe pressure point.The last stored speed increases or decrea-ses in 1 mph (1 km/h) increments.
XTo adjust the set speed in 5 mph incre-ments (10 km/h increments):briefly pushthe cruise control lever upCor downDbeyond the pressure point.The last stored speed increases or decrea-ses in 5 mph (10 km/h) increments.
iActive Distance Assist DISTRONIC is notdeactivated if you depress the acceleratorpedal. If you accelerate to overtake, ActiveDistance Assist DISTRONIC adjusts the vehi-cle's speed to the last speed stored, afteryou have finished overtaking.
Setting a specified minimum distance
You can set the specified minimum distancefor Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC by vary-ing the time span between one and two sec-onds. This determines the distance that ActiveDistance Assist DISTRONIC is to maintain fromthe vehicle in front, depending on the roadspeed. You can see this distance in the multi-function display (Ypage 164).

in front on the edge of the road because ofits narrow width. The distance to the vehiclein front will be too short.
RObstacles and stationary vehicles: ActiveDistance Assist DISTRONIC does not brakefor obstacles or stationary vehicles. If, forexample, the detected vehicle turns a cor-ner and an obstacle or stationary vehicle isrevealed, Active Distance Assist DISTRONICwill not brake for them.
RActive Distance Assist DISTRONIC may mis-takenly detect vehicles that are crossingyour lane. If you activate Active DistanceAssist DISTRONIC under the following condi-tions, the vehicle could pull away uninten-tionally:
-at traffic lights with crossing traffic, forexample
-if there is a vehicle in front, after a cross-ing, with the HOLD function activated
In such situations, brake if necessary. ActiveDistance Assist DISTRONIC will then be deacti-vated.
HOLD function
General notes
The HOLD function can assist the driver in thefollowing situations:
RWhen pulling away, especially on steepslopes
RWhen maneuvering on steep slopes
RWhen waiting in traffic
The vehicle is kept stationary without thedriver having to depress the brake pedal.
The braking effect is canceled and the HOLDfunction deactivated when you depress theaccelerator pedal to pull away.
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If the vehicle is only braked using the HOLD
function, the vehicle may roll away in the fol-
lowing situations when you leave the vehi-
cle:
Rif there is a malfunction in the system or
in the voltage supply
Rif the HOLD function is deactivated by
depressing the accelerator pedal or brake
pedal, e.g. by a vehicle occupant
There is a risk of an accident.
Always deactivate the HOLD function and
secure the vehicle against rolling away
before you leave it.

Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you use start-off assist, individual wheels
may start to spin and the vehicle may skid. If
ESP®is deactivated, there is a greater dan-
ger of skidding and having an accident.
Make sure that no persons or obstacles are
in the vicinity of the vehicle.
Start-off assist enables optimum accelerationfrom a standstill. For this, a suitably high-griproad surface is required and the vehicle andtires must be in good working order.

DSR
General notes
iDSR (Downhill Speed Regulation) is onlyavailable for vehicles with the ON&OFF-ROAD package.
DSR is an aid to assist you when driving down-hill. It keeps the speed of travel at the speedselected on the on-board computer. Thesteeper the downhill gradient, the greater theDSR braking effect on the vehicle. When driv-ing on flat stretches of road or on an uphillgradient, the DSR braking effect is minimal ornonexistent.
DSR controls the vehicle’s speed when it isactivated and the transmission is in position[,^or\\. You can drive at a higher or alower speed than that set on the on-boardcomputer at any time by accelerating or brak-ing.
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If the speed driven and the set speed devi-
ate and you activate DSR on a slippery road
surface, the wheels may lose traction. There
is an increased danger of skidding and acci-
dents.
Before switching DSR on, please take into
consideration the road surface and the dif-
ference between driving speed and the set
speed.
If you fail to adapt your driving style, DSR canneither reduce the risk of accident nor over-ride the laws of physics. DSR cannot takeaccount of road, weather and traffic condi-tions. DSR is only an aid. You are responsiblefor the distance to the vehicle in front, forvehicle speed, for braking in good time and forstaying in your lane.
You are always responsible for keeping controlof the vehicle and for assessing whether thedownhill gradient can be managed. DSR maynot always be able to keep to the set speed,depending on road surface and tire conditions.Select a set speed suitable for the prevailingconditions and when necessary, apply thebrakes manually.
Further information about "Driving off-road"(Ypage 153).
Activating/deactivating DSR
If you activate DSR and no speed has beenset, the vehicle decelerates to 4 mph (Canada:6 km/h).
You can only activate DSR when driving atspeeds below 19 mph (Canada: 30 km/h).
Activating DSR

Parking tips:
RThe way your vehicle is positioned in theparking space after parking is dependent onvarious factors. These include the positionand shape of the vehicles parked in frontand behind it and the conditions of the loca-tion. It may be the case that Active ParkingAssist guides you too far into a parkingspace, or not far enough into it. In somecases, it may also lead you across or ontothe curb. If necessary, cancel the parkingprocedure with Active Parking Assist.
RYou can also preselect transmission position[. The vehicle redirects and does not driveas far into the parking space. Should thetransmission change take place too early,the parking procedure is canceled. A sensi-ble parking position can no longer be ach-ieved from this position.
Exiting a parking space
In order that Active Parking Assist can supportyou when exiting the parking space:
Ryou need to have parked using Active Park-ing Assist.
Rthe border of the parking space must behigh enough at the front and the rear. Acurb stone is too small, for example.
Rthe border of the parking space must not betoo wide, as the position of the vehicle mustnot exceed an angle of 45° to the startingposition as it is maneuvered into the parkingspace.
