It flashes yellow
The steering column is jammed.
When stopped, turn the steering wheel in both dir ec-
tions.
OR:
The steering column does not unlock or lock.
Remov e the k

ey from the ignition switch and recon-
nect it. Consider the messages shown on the instru-
ment panel display.
Do not continue driving if the steering column re-
mains locked after switching on the ignition. Seek
specialist assistance. The control lamp should light up for a few
seconds when the ignition is s
wit
ched on. It
shoul d go out once the engine is st
art

ed.WARNING
Never ignore the warning lamps or messag-
es.

Braking and parking
Electronic differential lock (EDL)
When the EDL det ects wheel
spin, it brak
es
the spinning wheel and dir
ects the power to
the other driven wheel. This function is active
up to approximately 100 km/h (62 mph).
To prevent the disc brake of the braked wheel
from overheating, the EDL cuts out automati-
cally if subjected to excessive loads. The ve-
hicle can still be driven. The EDL will switch on
again automatically when the brake has
cooled down.
Tractor-trailer sway mitigation*
If the vehicle is pulling a trailer, it will control
the following: tractor-trailers tend to sway.
When the swaying of the trailer is felt by the
vehicle and detected by the ESC, it will auto-
matically brake the towing vehicle within the
limits of the system and mitigate the sway.
Tractor-trailer sway mitigation is not available
in all countries

.Energy management
Optimisation of the starting ca-pacity The power management controls the distri-
bution of electrical energy and thus helps to
ensur
e that ther

e is always enough power
available to start the engine.
If a vehicle with a conventional electrical sys-
tem is left parked for a long time, the battery
will gradually lose its charge because certain
electrical devices, such as the electronic
gearbox lock continues to draw current even
when the ignition is off. In some cases there
may not be enough power available to start
the engine.
Your vehicle is equipped with an intelligent
power management system to control the
distribution of electrical energy. This signifi-
cantly improves reliability when starting the
engine, and also prolongs the useful life of the
battery.
The main functions incorporated in the power
management system are battery diagnosis,
residual current management and dynam-
ic power management. Battery diagnosis
The battery diagnosis function constantly
regist ers the condition of the batt

ery. Sensors
detect the battery voltage, battery current
and battery temperature. This enables the
system to calculate the current power level
and charge condition of the battery.
Residual current management
The residual current management reduces
power consumption while the vehicle is
parked. It controls the supply of power to the
various electrical devices while the ignition is
switched off. The system takes the battery di-
agnosis data into consideration.
Depending on the power level of the battery,
switch off the individual electrical devices
one after the other to prevent the battery
from losing too much charge and to ensure
that the engine can be started reliably.
Dynamic power management
While the vehicle is moving, this function dis-
tributes the available power to the various
electrical devices and systems according to
their requirements. The power management
ensures that on-board systems do not con-
sume more electrical power than the alterna-
tor can supply, and thus maintains the maxi-
mum possible battery power level. Note
