Important safety notes
See the "Important safety notes" section
If ESP® detects that the vehicle is deviating from the direction desired by the driver, one or more wheels are braked to stabilize the vehicle. If necessary, the engine output is also modified to keep the vehicle on the desired course within physical limits. ESP® assists the driver when pulling away on wet or slippery roads. ESP® can also stabilize the vehicle during braking.
If ESP® intervenes, the ESP® warning lamp flashes in the instrument cluster.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should you
deactivate ESP® when the ESP®
warning lamp in the instrument cluster
flashes. Proceed as follows:
- when driving off, apply as little throttle as
possible.
- while driving, ease up on the accelerator
pedal.
- adapt your speed to suit the prevailing road
and weather conditions.
Failure to observe these guidelines could cause the vehicle to skid. ESP® cannot prevent accidents resulting from excessive speed.
Vehicles without 4MATIC: switch the
ignition off when:
- the parking brake is being tested using a
dynamometer
- the vehicle is being towed with the front/
rear axle raised
Application of the brakes by ESP® may otherwise destroy the brake system.
Vehicles with 4MATIC: switch off the ignition when the parking brake is being tested on a brake dynamometer.
Application of the brakes by ESP® may otherwise destroy the brake system.
Only use wheels with the recommended tire sizes. Only then will ESP® function properly.
