As a result, Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC may neither give warnings nor intervene in such situations.
If the vehicle pulls away using Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC.
If the stored speed is called up and is considerably faster or slower than the currently driven speed.
If Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC no longer detects a vehicle in front or does not react to relevant objects.
Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC brakes your vehicle with up to 50% of the possible deceleration. If this deceleration is not sufficient, Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC alerts you with a visual and acoustic warning.
The speed adopted by Active Speed Limit Assist may be too high or incorrect in some individual cases, such as:
at speed limits below 20 km/h
in wet conditions or in fog
when towing a trailer

Switching between Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC and the limiter
Activating the variable limiter or Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC
The current vehicle speed is stored and maintained (Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC) or limited (variable limiter) by the vehicle.
Adopting a detected speed limit
The maximum permissible speed on the traffic sign is adopted as the stored speed. The vehicle adapts its speed to that of the vehicle in front, but only up to the stored speed.
Pulling away with Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC
The functions of Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC continue to be carried out.
Deactivating Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC
If you leave the driver's seat while the vehicle is being braked by Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC only, the vehicle can roll away.
If you brake, deactivate ESP® or if ESP® intervenes, Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC is deactivated.
Increasing/decreasing the stored speed
Changing the specified distance to the vehicle in front
