Is that not the symbol that has to do with DISTRONIC?

OP, like I mentioned in the previous reply, that is the part of DISTRONIC, to clarify, it is Steering Assist or MB sometimes calls it Steering Pilot. Here is a image I found on the forums online: https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...9fcf5ed75f.png

Kuma098,
when the symbol is white, the cruise control is activated. This symbol will turn green when the car is able to see the roadway lines clear enough to make corrections and keep you in your lane. If you are in cruise control mode and the symbol turns green to white, the cameras can no longer see the lines on the road anymore and will revert to non lane keeping mode until the lines are clear enough to be seen again. (If your car has this option)
