See Oper. Manual DISTRONIC Plus* is switched off and is
temporarily unavailable.
DISTRONIC Plus* is deactivated if:
ț the DISTRONIC Plus* cover in the radia-
tor grille is dirty
ț the radar sensors* do not sense any
other vehicles or objects, i.e. road sign
or similar to this, for a long time
ț the system is overheated
ț its function is impaired as a result of
heavy precipitation or fog
ț the battery voltage is insufficient
̈ Clean the DISTRONIC Plus* cover in the radiator grille
(
୴ page 558).
̈ Restart the vehicle.
̈ Try activating DISTRONIC Plus* again later.
̈ Wait until the system cools down or the battery recovers.
DISTRONIC Plus* will be operational again without you needing to
restart the engine if:
ț the dirt (e.g. slush) loosens while you are driving
ț the system detects that the sensors* are fully available again
ț the message in the multifunction display disappears
DISTRONIC Plus* is switched off because
the radar sensor system* is temporarily in-
operative due to electromagnetic interfer-
ence near television and radio transmitter
stations, toll stations, speed measuring sys-
tems, etc. ̈ Wait until the message in the multifunction display disappears.
