Switching on the ESP
®
EBP
Warning!
G
̈
Press ESP
®
switch 1.
The EBP enhances braking effectiveness
by allowing the rear brakes to supply a
greater proportion of the braking effort
without a loss of vehicle stability.
When the ESP® warning lamp v is
illuminated continuously, the ESP® is
switched off or is not operational due to a
malfunction.
The ESP warning lamp v in the
®
instrument cluster goes out.
You are now again in normal driving
®
mode with the ESP switched on.
G
Adapt your speed and driving to the prevail-
ing road conditions and to the non-operating
status of the ESP®.
Warning!
For more information, see the “Practical
hints” section (୴ page 420).
If the EBP is malfunctioning, the brake sys-
tem is still functioning. However, the rear
wheels may lock during hard braking, caus-
ing you to lose control over the vehicle and
possibly causing an accident. Adjust your
driving style to the non-operating status of
the EBP.
!
Avoid spinning of a drive wheel for an
extended period of time with the ESP® switched
off. This may cause serious damage to the
drivetrain which is not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
For more information, see the “Practical
hints” section (୴ page 422) and
