Trailers with a high center of gravity may tip
over before the system recognizes swaying of
the trailer.
Trailer stabilization does not work if ESP
®
is
deactivated or disengaged because of a
malfunction.
EBD (electronic brake force
distribution)
i Observe the "Important safety notes"
section (
Y
page 64).
EBD monitors and controls the brake
pressure on the rear wheels to improve
driving stability while braking.
G
WARNING
If EBD has malfunctioned, the braking system
remains available with full brake boosting
effect. However, the rear wheels can still lock,
e.g. under full braking. This could cause you
to lose control of your vehicle and cause an
accident. You should therefore adapt your
driving style to the different handling
characteristics.
X Observe the notes on warning and indicator
lamps (
Y
page 240) as well as display
messages (
Y
page 216).
Distance warning function (vehicles
with DISTRONIC)
This function provides a warning from a speed
of approximately 20 mph(30 km/h), if:
R
for a period of several seconds, the
distance to the vehicle in front is too short
for the speed at which you are traveling.
The
·
distance warning lamp in the
instrument cluster will light up.
R
you are rapidly approaching the vehicle in
front. An intermittent warning tone will
then sound and the
·
distance warning
lamp will light up in the instrument cluster.
You must apply the brakes yourself in order
to maintain the appropriate distance to the
vehicle in front and prevent a collision.
G
WARNING
If the distance warning lamp
·
in the
instrument cluster comes on while driving
and/or an intermittent warning sounds,
immediate attention on the part of the driver
is required. As required by the traffic
situation, apply the brakes and navigate
around a possible obstacle. However, do not
drive by relying on the distance warning
function, as this will result in an emergency
braking application. This will not always
enable you to avoid a collision, especially
when traveling on varying road surface
conditions and with varying driver reaction.
Complex driving situations are not always
fully recognized by the distance warning
function. This could result in wrong or missing
distance warnings.
X
To activate/deactivate: activate or
deactivate the distance warning function in
the on-board computer (
Y
page 210).
After activation, the
Ä
symbol is
displayed in the lower multifunction
display.
