Distronic displays in the speedometer
dial
1 Set speed
If Distronic is activated, one or two seg-
ments come on around the set speed.
1 Segments
If Distronic detects a vehicle directly
ahead, the segments (representing the
difference) from the speed of the vehicle
ahead to the set speed come on.
If Distronic calculates that there is a dan-
ger of collision:
ț The distance warning lamp l in the
instrument cluster comes on red.
ț An intermittent warning sounds.
Distronic is designed and intended only to
maintain a set speed and keep a set dis-
tance from moving objects in front of it.
Warning! G
The “Resume” function should only be oper-
ated if the driver is fully aware of the previ-
ously set speed and wishes to resume this
particular preset speed.
i
The vehicle speed displayed on the speed-
ometer can briefly vary from the speed setting
on the Distronic system.
