Driving stability control systems
Vehicle features and
options
This chapter describes all standard, country-spe‐
cific and optional features offered with the series.
It also describes features and functions that are
not necessarily available in your vehicle, e.g., due
to the selected options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related functions and sys‐
tems. When using these functions and systems,
the applicable laws and regulations must be ob‐
served.
Antilock Braking System
ABS
The Antilock Braking System (ABS) prevents
locking of the wheels during braking.
The vehicle maintains its steerability even during
emergency braking, which increases the active
driving safety.
ABS is operational every time you start the en‐
gine.
Brake assistant
The Brake Assistant effects maximum braking
assistance when the brake is applied quickly. It
reduces the braking distance to a minimum dur‐
ing emergency braking. The advantages of the
Antilock Braking System (ABS) are thereby uti‐
lized.
Do not reduce the pressure on the brake pedal
for the duration of emergency braking.
Adaptive brake assistant
In combination with Active Cruise Control ACC,
this system ensures that the brakes respond
even more rapidly when braking in critical situa‐
tions.
Drive-off assistant
Principle
The drive-off assistant supports driving off on
uphill grades.
Driving off
1.
Hold the vehicle in place with the foot brake.
2.
Release the foot brake and drive off without
delay.
After the foot brake is released, the vehicle is
held in place for approx. 2 seconds.
Depending on the vehicle loading or when a
trailer is used, the vehicle may roll back slightly.
DSC Dynamic Stability
Control
Principle
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) helps to
keep the vehicle on a steady course by reducing
drive power and by brake intervention on individ‐
ual wheels.
General information
DSC detects the following unstable driving con‐
ditions, for instance:
