Safety and Security
Driving safety systems
Continuous, steady brake pedal pressure
yields the advantages provided by the ABS,
namely braking power and the ability to
steer the vehicle.
G
Adaptive Brake
Warning!
Adaptive Brake provides a high level of
braking safety as well as increased braking
®
comfort. It is coupled with ABS, ESP   and
BAS. Adaptive Brake takes driver and vehi-
cle characteristics into consideration, thus
achieving an optimal braking effect.
The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of
physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can
it increase braking or steering efficiency
beyond that afforded by the condition of the
vehicle brakes and tires or the traction
afforded. The ABS cannot prevent acci-
dents, including those resulting from exces-
sive speed in turns, following another
vehicle too closely, or hydroplaning.
The pulsating brake pedal can be an indica-
tion of hazardous road conditions and
functions as a reminder to take extra care
while driving.
BAS
Emergency brake maneuver
Keep continuous full pressure on the
brake pedal.
The Brake Assist System (BAS) operates in
emergency situations. If you apply the
brakes very quickly, the BAS automatically
provides full brake boost, thereby poten-
tially reducing the braking distance.
̈
Only a safe, attentive, and skillful driver can
prevent accidents.
Warning!
G
The capabilities of an ABS equipped vehicle
must never be exploited in a reckless or dan-
gerous manner which could jeopardize the
user’s safety or the safety of others.
When the ABS is malfunctioning, the BAS
EBP, ESP® and hill start assist are also
switched off.
̈   Apply continuous full braking pressure
until the emergency braking situation is
over.
When the ABS is malfunctioning, the wheels
may lock during hard braking, reducing
steering capability and extending the brak-
ing distance.
The ABS will prevent the wheels from
locking.
For more information, see “Practical hints”
(
page 374).
When you release the brake pedal, the
brakes function again as normal. The BAS
is then deactivated.
