the hood grille), especially at times of snow
and ice or heavy rain. In such a case,
Distronic will switch off, and the message

function display.
For cleaning and care of the Distronic sen-
sor, see “Cleaning the Distronic* system
sensor cover” (

Turns and bends
In turns or bends, Distronic may not detect
a moving vehicle in front, or it may detect
one too soon. This may cause your vehicle
to brake late or unexpectedly.
Offset driving
A vehicle traveling in your lane but offset
from your direct line of travel may not be
detected by Distronic. There will be insuffi-
cient distance to the vehicle ahead.

If the message
DISTRONIC available
again
appears during driving, the dirt (e.g.
slush) has dissolved; Distronic works again, if
you reactivate it (
