Operator's Manual Vehicles without the Active Driving Assistance package: Adaptive
Brake Assist is temporarily inoperative. Possible causes are:
R function is impaired due to heavy rain or snow.
R the sensor in the bumper is dirty.
R the radar sensor system is temporarily inoperative, e.g. due to
electromagnetic radiation emitted by nearby TV or radio sta-
tions or other sources of electromagnetic radiation.
R AMG vehicles: ESP ®

R the system is outside the operating temperature range.
R the on-board voltage is too low.
When the causes stated above no longer apply, the display mes-
sage disappears.
Adaptive Brake Assist is operational again.
If the display message does not disappear:
X Pull over and stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible, paying
attention to road and traffic conditions.
X Secure the vehicle against rolling away (Y page 190).
X Clean the bumpers (Y page 381).

The yellow ABS warning
lamp is lit while the

Brake, COLLISION
PREVENTION ASSIST, the HOLD function, hill start assist, cross-
wind assistance and ESP ®
trailer stabilization, for example, are
also deactivated.
ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated.
G WARNING
The brake system continues to function normally, but without the functions listed above. The wheels could therefore lock if you
brake hard, for example.
The steerability and braking characteristics may be severely affec-ted. The braking distance in an emergency braking situation can
increase.
If ESP ®

is unable to stabilize the vehicle.
There is an increased risk of skidding and an accident.
X Observe the additional display messages in the multifunction
