Driving stability control
systems
Image on the Control Display
Your BMW is equipped with an extended array
of systems designed to enhance and maintain
vehicle stability under extreme conditions.

using iDrive
ABS Antilock Brake System
With PDC activated:
ABS prevents locking of the wheels during
braking. Safe steering response is maintained
even during full braking. Active safety is thus
increased.

2.
Select the
"Rear view camera" symbol.
Press the controller.
The image of the rear view camera is displayed.
The setting is stored for the remote control cur-
rently in use.
ABS is operational every time you start the
engine. Braking safely, refer to page 140.

CBC Cornering Brake Control
With the rear view camera switched on:
When braking during curves or when braking
during a lane change, driving stability and steer-
ing response are improved further.

Select the
symbol.
Turn the controller until the desired setting
is displayed and then press the controller.
Electronic brake-force distribution
Contrast
The system controls the brake pressure in the
rear wheels to ensure stable braking behavior.

Brake assistant
Turn the controller until the desired setting
is displayed and then press the controller.
When you apply the brakes rapidly, this system
automatically produces the maximum braking
force boost and thus helps to achieve the short-
est possible braking distance during full brak-
ing. This system exploits all of the benefits pro-
vided by ABS.
Camera
Do not reduce the pressure on the brake pedal
for the duration of the full braking.
DSC Dynamic Stability Control
DSC prevents traction loss in the driving wheels
when starting off and accelerating. The system
also identifies unstable driving conditions, such
as a loss of traction at the rear of the vehicle or
sliding of the vehicle in its front wheels. In these
cases, DSC helps the vehicle maintain a safe
course within physical limits by reducing engine
output and through braking actions in the indi-
vidual wheels.
The lens of the rear view camera is under the
grasping lip of the liftgate.
The presence of dirt can impair image quality.
Clean the lens with a moist, nonabrasive cloth.
The laws of physics cannot be repealed,
even with DSC. An appropriate driving
style remains the responsibility of the driver.
