Acceleration Slip Control (ASR)
The acceleration slip control will
engage at all vehicle speeds, if one or
both drive wheels begin to lose traction
and spin. While engaged, the yellow
function indicator in the speedometer
lights up.
With the acceleration slip control
engaged, the brake is applied to the
spinning drive wheel until it regains
sufficient traction. If both drive wheels
lose traction and spin, the brake is
applied to both drive wheels and
simultaneously, engine torque is
limited.
As traction on the road surface
increases, the allowable engine torque
also increases again and the brake is no
longer applied to drive wheels.
Snow chain switch
Driving with Snow Chains
When driving with snow chains, press
the upper half of the snow chain
switch, located on the instrument
panel (the indicator lamp in the switch
comes on) to obtain maximum
possible traction.
This mode is effective at speeds up to
25 mph (40 km/h). It remains stored
in memory up to 37 mph (60 km/h)
and automatically engages again when
the vehicle speed drops below 25 mph
(40 km/h).
The mode is canceled in memory
above 37 mph (60 km/h) and the
indicator lamp in the switch goes out.
To switch off: press lower half of
switch (the indicator lamp in the
switch goes out).
Notes:
With the key in steering lock position
2, the yellow function indicator lamp
and the yellow ASR warning lamp in
the instrument cluster come on. They
must go out with the engine running.
If the ASR warning lamp comes on
with the engine running, a
malfunction has been detected.
Pressing the accelerator pedal will
require greater effort. Only
2
/
3
of
engine output is available.
Have the acceleration slip control
checked at your authorized Mercedes-
Benz dealer as soon as possible.
