Caution Do not turn beyond the resistance since this could damage the transmission.
Driving and operating ABS starts to regulate brake pressure as soon as a wheel shows a tendency to lock. The vehicle remains steerable, even during hard braking. ABS control is made apparent through a pulse in the brake pedal and the noise of the regulation process. For optimum braking, keep the brake pedal fully depressed throughout the braking process, despite the fact that the pedal is pulsating. Do not reduce the pressure on the pedal. Control indicator u 3 92.
144 Driving and operating Ride control systems Electronic stability program Electronic stability program (ESP®Plus) improves driving stability when necessary, regardless of the type of road surface or tyre grip. It also prevents the drive wheels from spinning. As soon as the vehicle starts to swerve (understeer/oversteer), engine output is reduced and the wheels are braked individually. This considerably improves the driving stability of the vehicle on slippery road surfaces.
Driving and operating Sport mode Suspension and steering become more direct and provide better contact with the road surface. The engine reacts more quickly to accelerator pedal movements. Automatic gear changing is also more responsive. Control indicator IDS+ 3 94. Activation Deactivation Briefly press the SPORT button.
