tems can neither reduce the risk of accident

nor override the laws of physics. Driving

safety systems are merely aids designed to

assist driving. You are responsible for the dis-

tance to the vehicle in front, for vehicle speed

and for braking in good time. Always adapt

your driving style to suit the prevailing road,

weather and traffic conditions and maintain a

safe distance from the vehicle in front. Drive

carefully.

The driving safety systems described only

work as effectively as possible when there

is adequate contact between the tires and

the road surface. Pay particular attention to

the information regarding tires, recommen-

ded minimum tire tread depths etc. in the

"Wheels and tires" section (Y page 324).

In wintry driving conditions, always use

winter tires (M+S tires) and if necessary,

snow chains. Only in this way will the driv-

ing safety systems described in this section

work as effectively as possible.

ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)

General information

ABS regulates brake pressure in such a way

that the wheels do not lock when you brake.

This allows you to continue steering the vehi-

cle when braking.

The ! ABS warning lamp in the instrument

cluster lights up when the ignition is switched

on. It goes out when the engine is running.

Important safety notes

Observe the "Important safety notes" sec-

tion for driving safety systems (Y page 64).

WARNING

If ABS is faulty, the wheels could lock when

braking. The steerability and braking charac-

teristics may be severely impaired. Addition-

ally, further driving safety systems are deac-

tivated. There is an increased danger of skid-

ding and accidents.

Drive on carefully. Have ABS checked imme-

diately at a qualified specialist workshop.

When ABS is malfunctioning, other systems,

including driving safety systems, will also

become inoperative. Observe the information

on the ABS warning lamp (Y page 254) and

display messages which may be shown in the

instrument cluster (Y page 222).

ABS works from a speed of about 5 mph

(8 km/h), regardless of road-surface condi-

tions. ABS works on slippery roads, even if

you only brake gently.

Braking

If ABS intervenes: continue to depress the

brake pedal vigorously until the braking sit-

uation is over.

To make a full brake application:

depress the brake pedal with full force.

If ABS intervenes when braking, you will feel a

pulsing in the brake pedal.

The pulsating brake pedal can be an indica-

tion of hazardous road conditions, and func-

tions as a reminder to take extra care while

driving.

Off-road ABS

An ABS system specifically suited to off-road

terrain is activated automatically once the off-

road program is activated (Y page 186).

At speeds below 20 mph (30 km/h), the front

wheels lock cyclically during braking. The dig-

ging-in effect achieved in the process reduces

the stopping distance on off-road terrain. This

limits steering capability.

BAS (Brake Assist System)

General information

BAS operates in emergency braking situa-

tions. If you depress the brake pedal quickly,

BAS automatically boosts the braking force,

thus shortening the stopping distance.
