Adapt your driving style to the modified
conditions.
Depending on the ADS setting (୴ page 280), the
vehicle will be lowered to the high-speed level
when traveling at higher speeds. At speeds be-
low 40 mph (64 km/h) at the latest, it will be re-
turned to the highway level.
Do not exceed a speed of 20 mph
(30
km/h).
Avoid extreme, quick steering move-
ments.
i The high-speed level is not available if tow-
ing a trailer. For more information on towing a
trailer, see “Trailer towing” (୴ page 366).
Keep in mind that the vehicle’s driving
characteristics are modified.
You should therefore drive in off-road level 3
with particular caution as it could otherwise
lead to an accident and/or serious injury to
you or others.
