ESP
®
can monitor and improve driving stability
and traction in the following situations, within
physical limits:
R
When pulling away on wet or slippery carria‐
geways.
R
When braking.
If the vehicle deviates from the direction desired
by the driver, ESP
®
can stabilise the vehicle by
intervening in the following ways:
R
One or more wheels are braked.
R
The engine output is adapted according to
the situation.
When ESP
®
is deactivated, the
å
warning
lamp lights up continuously:
R
Driving stability will no longer be improved.
R
The drive wheels could spin.
R
ETS/4ETS traction control is still active.

is necessary when pulling away.
Deactivate ESP
®
in the following situations to
improve traction:
R
When using snow chains.
R
In deep snow.
R
On sand or gravel.
%
Spinning the wheels results in a cutting
action, which enhances traction.
If the
÷
ESP
®
warning lamp lights up continu‐
ously, ESP
®
is not available due to a malfunction.

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 (
