If the turn signal is switched on
while a vehicle is in the critical

WARNING
The system is designed to oper-
ate in certain conditions and cir-
cumstances. Due to conditions or
other factors, the system may not
respond. There may be a risk of
accident or risk of damage to
property. Actively intervene as
needed. Refer to the information
in this Owner’s Manual regarding
the scope of the system’s opera-
tion and limitations.

1Hold the vehicle in place with
the foot brake.
2 Release the foot brake and
drive off without delay.
After the foot brake is released,
the vehicle is held in place for
approx. 2 seconds.
Depending on the vehicle load-
ing, the vehicle may roll back
slightly.
Within the physical limits, the
system helps to keep the vehicle
on a steady course by reducing
engine speed and by braking
the individual wheels.
VSC detects the following unsta-
ble driving conditions, for
instance:
Fishtailing, which can lead to
oversteering.
Loss of traction of the front
wheels, which can lead to
understeering.

WARNING
The system cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal
judgment in assessing the traffic
situation. Based on the limits of
the system, it cannot inde-
pendently react to all traffic situa-
tions. There is a risk of accident.
Adjust driving style to traffic condi-
tions. Watch the surrounding traf-
fic situation closely, be ready to
take over steering and braking at
any time, and actively intervene
where appropriate.
WARNING
When driving with a roof load, for
instance with roof-mounted lug-
gage rack, the vehicle's center of
gravity is higher, which increases
the risk of the vehicle tipping in
critical driving sit uations. There is
a risk of accidents or risk of dam-
age to property. Do not deactivate

tem when driving with roof load.

2023-1. CONTROLS
In this case, even if the VSC oper-
ates, it cannot operate sufficiently
to avoid a possible dangerous situ-
ation. The driver is solely responsi-
ble for understanding their
surroundings and driving at a safe
speed.
Traction mode is a version of the
VSC Vehicle Stability Control
System where forward momen-
tum is optimized.
The system ensures maximum
headway on special road condi-
tions or loose road surfaces, for
instance unplowed snowy
roads, but with somewhat lim-
ited driving stability.
When Traction mode is acti-
vated, the vehicle has maximum
traction. Driving stability is lim-
ited during acceleration and
when driving in curves.
You may find it useful to briefly
activate Traction mode in the
following situations:
When driving in slush or on
uncleared, snow-covered
roads.
When driving off from deep
snow or loose ground.
When driving with snow chains.

The active differential step-

Using this system, a desired
speed and a distance to a vehi-
cle ahead can be adjusted using
the buttons on the steering
wheel.
The system maintains the
desired speed on clear roads.
For this purpose, the vehicle
accelerates or brakes automati-
cally.
If a vehicle is driving ahead of
you, the system adjusts the
speed of your vehicle so that the
set distance to the vehicle
ahead is maintained. The speed
is adjusted as far as the given
situation allows.
Depending on the vehicle set-
tings, the characteristics of the
Cruise Control may change.
The distance can be adjusted in
several steps. For safety rea-
sons, it depends on the respec-
tive speed.
