Distronic Display
Can someone share with me what the display does (in speedo) when you do not have Distronic Plus? Just seems to show the front of the car for no reason.... so far. Why even have that display?

jhern, based on the lack of responses I'm guessing the same thing. The owners manual wasn't much help either.
I guess I have to put something up in that spot that worth while. I'd like for tire pressure to go in there.
Possible? I'm still learning...

Do you mean the assistance display with the graphic showing the front of the car? That display also shows you blind spot system status as well as side collision prevention warnings.

I wish I didn't have to try everything to know whether I have that option or not. For example when I hit the voice command button, it directs me the nav screen everytime. How am I supposed to know if I have voice command or not? OT any other option for that matter?
Great car though. it is interesting to still have my ATS (lease due end of April) and my Merc. There's one thing that the Caddy is really good at: CUE touch screen.

You bought a car without being sure what options it came with?

Well, none of it was clearly a "show stopper". I will tell you though that I thougt that it had voice control. Proilly should have for the dough...like my ATS.

when I bought any Mercedes they always give you a run down of features at least.
Do you have the lighting package or media package?

no and no. I got this on a whim. It's a brand new leftover 2015. It's got Palladium Silver, AMG wheels. Has a panoramic, bluetooth, great price. I'm happy... just a little surprised there's so many add-ons.

It's attention assist you're referring to and it doesn't detect fitness it detects tiredness.
as for the menu being discussed mine shows things like the road signs/speed limits etc (no distronic on mine.. a mistake).
