Indicator Lamp Electronic Stability Program
(ESP
®
) (vehicle type 2500 only)
When the key is in position 2 in the ignition lock, the
ESP
®
indicator lamp will light up in the
instrument cluster as a function check. It goes out
when the engine is running.
If the indicator lamp remains on or lights up when
the engine is running, the electronic stability program
(ESP
®
) is malfunctioning and switched off
automatically. The engine’s power output may be then
reduced.
WARNING!
The Brake Assist system (BAS) cannot prevent the
natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle,
nor can it increase braking efficiency beyond that
afforded by the condition of the vehicle brakes
and tires or the traction afforded.
The BAS cannot prevent accidents, including
those resulting from excessive speed in turns,
following another vehicle too closely, or
hydroplaning. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful
driver can prevent accidents.
The capabilities of an BAS equipped vehicle must
never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous
manner which could jeopardize the user’s safety
or the safety of others
.
Adapt your speed and driving style to the
prevailing road, traffic and weather conditions.
Driving too fast increases the risk of an accident.
