ABS (Antilock Brake System)
BAS (Brake Assist System)
The following factors increase the risk of
accidents:
Warning!
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)

Excessive speed, especially in turns
Wet and slippery road surfaces
4MATIC (Four Wheel Electronic
Traction System)
Following another vehicle too closely
The ABS, BAS, ESP®, and 4MATIC (if so
equipped) cannot reduce this risk.
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.
Always adjust your driving style to the
prevailing road and weather conditions.
i In winter operation, the maximum
effectiveness of the ABS, ESP®, and 4MATIC (if
so equipped) is only achieved with winter tires
୴ page 308), or snow chains as required.
The ABS is functional above a speed of
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h) indepen-
dent of road surface conditions.
(
On slippery road surfaces, the ABS will
respond even to light brake pressure.
The - indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster (୴ page 24) comes on when you
switch on the ignition. It goes out when the
engine is running.
