Braking and stabilising systems Overview
Stabilisation control (ESC)
ESC helps to stabilize the vehicle in borderline situa-
tions (e.g. when the vehicle starts to skid). ESC
brakes the individual wheels to maintain the direc-
tion of travel.
flashes - ESC is engaged
ESC Sport
ESC Sport allows for a sportier driving style.
lit up - ESC Sport is activated
Traction control (TCS)
ASR helps to stabilize the vehicle when accelerating
or driving on low-grip roads. ASR reduces the drive
power transmitted to the wheels when the wheels
spin.
flashes - ASR is engaged
Antilock braking system (ABS)
ABS helps maintain control of the vehicle during
emergency braking. An ABS intervention is noticea-
ble by pulsating movements of the brake pedal.
Motor Slip Regulation (MSR)
MSR helps to maintain control of the vehicle in the
event of a sudden reduction in speed, e.g. on icy
roads. If the drive wheels lock, MSR increases the
engine speed. This reduces the braking e

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)Functionality
Control
ACC maintains the set speed. When your vehicle ap-
proaches the vehicle in front, ACC will automatically
start to maintain the set distance to this vehicle.
Maintaining the set speed and the distance will here-
inafter be referred to as Control.
WARNING
ACC does not respond to stationary objects or to
crossing or oncoming objects.
ACC is intended primarily for use on motorways.
Speed range
Depending on the equipment, ACC allows a speed
setting in the range of 30-160 or 30-210 km/h.
If control is started at a speed of less than 30 km/h
on vehicles with an automatic transmission, the
speed is automatically increased to 30 km/h or con-
trolled according to the speed of the vehicle ahead.
Distance level
The distance to the vehicle ahead can be adjusted to
