WARNING Risk of accident if ECO Assist
does not provide sufficient deceleration
ECO Assist only brakes your vehicle when you
take your foot off the gas pedal. If vehicles are
detected late, e.g. after tight curves, or if you
do not react immediately to the ECO Assist
display, the deceleration may not be sufficient.
#
React promptly to the ECO Assist recom-
mendation and take your foot off the gas
pedal.
#
Adjust your speed to the driving condi-
tions and maintain a suitable distance
from the vehicle in front.
#
Brake the vehicle yourself and/or take
evasive action.
ECO Assist is active only in

Depending on the vehicle's equipment, ECO
Assist analyzes data for the vehicle's expected
route. This allows the system to optimally adjust
the driving style for the route ahead, use minimal
energy and recuperate as much as possible. If the
system has detected an event ahead or a vehicle
in front and the vehicle is approaching the event,
ECO Assist will calculate an optimized speed pro-
file based on the distance, speed and available
route information.
If you release the accelerator pedal in this case,
intelligent recuperation will start in overrun mode.
If ECO Assist has detected a vehicle traveling in
front or a stationary vehicle ahead, it can brake
your vehicle to a standstill. This may be the case,
for example, at the end of a traffic jam or if the
detected vehicle ahead stops in front of you.
If the deceleration provided by ECO Assist is not
sufficient, you must also brake with the service
brake. This is especially the case if, for example,
you pull away again in slow-moving traffic and the
distance to the vehicle in front is very short.
Depending on the vehicle equipment and at low
speeds, e.g. in a parking garage or on play
streets, no adjustment will be made for stationary
vehicles and therefore there will be no display.
