Get Driving and parking -> DYNAMIC SELECT Guide for Mercedes B Class SUV Third Generation (2018-2026)

The system may be impaired or may not function

in the following situations:

If there is poor visibility, e.g. due to insucient

illumination of the road, highly variable shade

conditions, rain, snow, fog or heavy spray.

If there is glare, e.g. from oncoming trac,

direct sunlight or reections.

If the windscreen is dirty in the vicinity of the

multifunction camera.

If the multifunction camera is misted up, dam-

aged or obscured.

If road signs are hard to detect, e.g. due to

dirt, snow or insucient lighting, or because

they are obscured.

If the digital road map of the navigation sys-

tem has incorrect or outdated information.

If signs are ambiguous, e.g. road signs in road-

works or in adjacent lanes.

If the radar sensors are dirty or obscured.

When you drive on roads with steep gradients.

If there are narrow vehicles in front, such as

bicycles or motorcycles.

Function of the route-based operating-mode strat-

egy (plug-in hybrid)

The following function is country-dependent

and available only in conjunction with an inte-

grated navigation system.

The route-based operating-mode strategy will be

active in the following circumstances:

Drive program n is selected .

The

Route-based option is selected for drive

program n on the DYNAMIC SELECT

menu (/ page 265).

Route guidance is active.

The state of charge of the high-voltage battery

is sucient.

When the function is active, data on the further

course of the route will be analysed. This includes

e.g. road type, speed limits and elevation data.

The hybrid system will then adapt the operating

strategy to the further course of the route:

Use of electrical energy and the combustion

engine will be adapted.

The state of charge of the high-voltage battery

will be controlled accordingly.

Electrical energy will be reserved especially

for electric mode, e.g. urban route sections or

areas with low emission zones.

The vehicle will automatically select the oper-

ating mode.

DYNAMIC SELECT

Function of DYNAMIC SELECT

DYNAMIC SELECT allows a drive program to be

selected quickly according to the current driving

situation or the desired vehicle characteristics.

or fully occupied.

Plug-in hybrid: this also applies to drive pro-

grams n, Î and o.

Depending on the drive program, the following

Select Route-based or Standard.

If route guidance is active and the

Route-

based

option has been activated, the electri-

cal energy is distributed intelligently over the

entire route. In built-up areas, electric mode is

preferred, while on the motorway the combus-

tion engine is used.

With the

Standard option, the vehicle drives in

its standard drive program (Î

Electric or

n Hybrid). There is no distribution of elec-

trical energy over the entire route. The high-

voltage battery is exhausted and the vehicle is

then driven by the combustion engine.

Switching the reset display on/o

Activate or deactivate Ask when starting.

This function must be activated for each user

prole separately. Only when this function is

activated will the drive program and ECO

start/stop setting for the previous journey be

saved for the respective user prole.

Function on: the next time the vehicle is started a

prompt appears asking whether the last active

drive program should be restored. If the ECO

start/stop function was deactivated, an additional

prompt appears asking if the function should

remain deactivated.

The prompt appears only if the previously

active settings deviate from the standard set-

tings.

Function o: the next time the vehicle is started

the A drive program is set automatically. The

ECO start/stop function is activated automati-

cally.

Switching the reset display on/o (plug-in hybrid)

Activate or deactivate Ask when starting.

This function must be activated for each user

prole separately. The drive program for the

respective user prole of the last driver is only

stored if this function is activated.

Function on: the next time the vehicle is started a

prompt appears asking whether the last active

drive program should be restored.

The prompt appears only if the previously

active settings deviate from the standard set-

tings.

Function o (plug-in hybrid): if the Î drive pro-

gram was the last one active, and all requirements

for the drive program are fullled, it will be selec-

ted automatically the next time the vehicle is star-

ted. If another drive program was active, then the

n drive program is set automatically.
