In this section you will find information on
the following driving safety systems:
i

In winter operation, the maximum ef-
fectiveness of the ABS, the BAS, the

with winter tires (M+S tires), or snow

ABS (Antilock Brake System)
BAS (Brake Assist System)
Do not pump the brake pedal. Use firm,
steady brake pedal pressure instead. Pump-
ing the brake pedal defeats the purpose of
the ABS and significantly reduces braking
effectiveness.
ESP (Electronic Stability Program)
SBC (Sensotronic Brake Control)
Warning!
G
4MATIC (Four Wheel Electronic
Traction System)
The following factors increase the risk of ac-
cidents:
The Antilock Brake System (ABS) regulates
the brake pressure so that the wheels do
not lock during braking. This allows you to
maintain the ability to steer your vehicle.

Excessive speed, especially in turns
Wet and slippery road surfaces
Following another vehicle too closely
The ABS is functional above a speed of ap-
proximately 5 mph (8 km/h) independent
of road surface conditions.
The ABS, BAS, ESP, SBC and 4MATIC cannot
reduce this risk.
Always adjust your driving style to the pre-
vailing road and weather conditions.
On slippery road surfaces, the ABS will re-
spond even with light brake pressure.
