ETS/4ETS (Electronic Traction System)
ETS/4ETS traction control is part of ESP
®
and
makes it possible to pull away and accelerate on
a slippery carriageway.
ETS/4ETS can improve the vehicle's traction by
intervening in the following ways:
R
The drive wheels are braked individually if
they spin.
R
More drive torque is transferred to the wheel
or wheels with traction.
Influence of drive programs on ESP
®
The drive programs enable ESP
®
to adapt to dif‐
ferent weather and road conditions as well as
the driver's preferred driving style. Depending on
the selected drive program, the appropriate
ESP
®
mode will be activated. You can select the
drive programs using the DYNAMIC SELECT
switch (
/
page 166).
Function of ESP

side wind and helps the driver to keep the vehi‐
cle in the lane:
R
ESP

speeds between approx. 75 km/h and
200 km/h when driving straight ahead or
cornering slightly.

ual brake application on one side.
Function of ESP
®
trailer stabilisation
&
WARNING Risk of accident in poor road
and weather conditions
In poor road and weather conditions, the
trailer stabilisation cannot prevent lurching of
the vehicle/trailer combination. Trailers with
a high centre of gravity may tip over before
ESP
®
detects this.
#
Always adapt your driving style to suit
the current road and weather condi‐
tions.
When driving with a trailer, ESP
®
can stabilise
your vehicle if the trailer begins to swerve from
side to side:
R
ESP
®
trailer stabilisation is active above
speeds of 65 km/h.
R
Slight swerving is reduced by means of a tar‐
geted, individual brake application on one
side.
R
In the event of severe swerving, the engine
output is also reduced and all wheels are
braked.
ESP
®
trailer stabilisation may be impaired or
may not function if:
R
The trailer is not connected correctly or is
not detected properly by the vehicle.
