DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS
(4/6)
The traction control system offers ad-
ditional safety. It is recommended that
you do not drive with the function dis-
abled. Correct this as soon as possible
by pressing switch 1 again.
Note:
the function is reactivated auto-
matically when the ignition is switched
on or when a speed of approximately
25 mph (40 km/h) is exceeded.
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation. ABS braking is
maintained as long as the brake pedal
is applied.
Hazard warning lights illumination
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration.
These functions are an ad-
ditional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav-
iour to be adapted to suit the driving
conditions.
The functions do not take the place
of the driver.
They do not increase
the vehicle’s limits and should
not encourage you to drive more
quickly.
Therefore, they can under
no circumstances replace the vigi-
lance or responsibility of the driver
when manoeuvring the vehicle (the
driver must always be ready for
sudden incidents which may occur
when driving).
Deactivating the function
(depending on vehicle)
In some situations (driving on very wet
ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with
snow chains fitted), the system may
reduce the engine output to limit wheel-
spin. If this is not required, it is possible
to deactivate the function by pressing
switch 1 .
The message “TRACTION CONTROL
OFF” is displayed on the instrument
panel to inform you.
