In drive program A , ECO Assist only reacts
to the route event "Vehicle in front".
System limits
If the calculated route is adhered to when route
guidance is active, ECO Assist will operate with
greater accuracy. The basic function is also availa-
ble without active route guidance. Not all informa-
tion and traffic situations can be foreseen. The
quality depends on the map data.
ECO Assist is only an aid. The driver is responsible
for keeping a safe distance from the vehicle in
front, for vehicle speed and for braking in good
time.
The system may be impaired or may not function
in the following situations:
R
If there is poor visibility, e.g. due to insufficient
illumination of the road, highly variable shade
conditions, rain, snow, fog or heavy spray.
R
If there is glare, e.g. from oncoming traffic,
direct sunlight or reflections.
R
If the windshield is dirty in the vicinity of the
multifunction camera.
R
If the multifunction camera is fogged up, dam-
aged or obscured.
R
If road signs are hard to detect, e.g. due to
dirt, snow or insufficient lighting, or because
they are obscured.
R
If the information in the navigation system's
digital map is incorrect or out of date.
R
If signs are ambiguous, e.g. road signs in road-
works or in adjacent lanes.
R
If the radar sensors are dirty or obscured.
R
When you drive on roads with steep uphill or
downhill gradients.
R
If there are narrow vehicles in front, such as
bicycles or motorcycles.
Regenerative brake system (plug-in hybrid)
▌ Function of the recuperative brake system
Depending on the selected recuperation level, the
electric motor will be operated as an alternator
when in overrun mode and during braking in order
to charge the high-voltage battery during driving.
As soon as you take your foot off the accelerator
pedal when the vehicle is in motion and in trans-
mission position
h
, recuperation in overrun
mode will be initiated.
The higher the recuperation, the stronger the
braking effect will be during coasting and the
more electrical energy will be fed into the high-
voltage battery.
The deceleration in overrun mode may not be suf-
ficient depending on the driving conditions. Decel-
erating to a standstill is not possible. Also brake
with the service brake if necessary. Always adapt
your speed to the driving conditions and keep a
sufficient distance.
The recuperative brake system has the following
characteristics:
R
supports braking with electronically controlled
brake force boosting
