Mercedes-Benz GL-Class: Setting the specified minimum distance
You can set the specified minimum distance for DISTRONIC by varying the time span between one and two seconds. This time span determines the distance that DISTRONIC should maintain from the vehicle in front, depending on the road speed. You can see this distance in the multifunction display.
WARNING 
It is up to the driver to exercise discretion to
select the appropriate setting given road
conditions, traffic, driver's preferred driving
style and applicable laws and driving
recommendations for safe following distance.
► To increase: turn thumbwheel 2 towards 3.
DISTRONIC then maintains a greater distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front.
► To decrease: turn thumbwheel 2 towards 1.
DISTRONIC then maintains a shorter distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front.
Make sure that you maintain the
minimum distance to the vehicle in front as
required by law. Adjust the distance to the
vehicle in front if necessary.
