Vehicles with COMAND/Audio 50
Example: traffic circle
i The following function is not operational
in all countries.
DISTRONIC PLUS uses additional information
from your navigation system so that it can
react appropriately to certain traffic
situations. This is the case if, while following
a vehicle, DISTRONIC PLUS is active and you:
R
approach or drive through a traffic circle
R
approach a T-intersection
R
turn off at a freeway exit
Even if the vehicle in front leaves the
detection range, DISTRONIC PLUS
temporarily maintains the current driving
speed and does not accelerate. This is based
on the current map data in the navigation
system.
The current speed is maintained:
R
approximately 10 seconds before the
traffic circle/T-intersection and
approximately 1.5 seconds when driving on
a traffic circle
R
approximately 12 seconds before reaching
a freeway exit and approximately
4 seconds after the freeway exit
Afterwards, the vehicle accelerates back to
the set speed you specified.
