125 mph (200 km/h) when driving straight
ahead or cornering slightly.
R
The vehicle is stabilized by means of individ‐
ual brake application on one side.
Function of EBD (electronic brake force dis‐
tribution)
EBD is characterized by the following:
R
Monitoring and regulating the brake pressure
on the rear wheels.
R
Improved driving stability when braking,
especially on bends.
Function of STEER CONTROL
STEER CONTROL helps you by transmitting a
noticeable steering force to the steering wheel in
the direction required for vehicle stabilization.
This steering recommendation is given particu‐
larly in the following situations:
R
Both right wheels or both left wheels are on
a wet or slippery road surface when you
brake
R
The vehicle starts to skid
System limitations
STEER CONTROL may be impaired or may not
function in the following situations:
R
ESP
®
is deactivated
R
ESP
®
is malfunctioning
R
The steering is malfunctioning
If ESP
®
is malfunctioning, you will be assisted
further by the electric power steering.
Function of Active Brake Assist
Active Brake Assist consists of the following
functions:
R
Distance warning function
R
Autonomous braking function
R
Situation-dependent braking assistance
R
Vehicles with Driving Assistance Pack‐
age: Evasive Steering Assist
Active Brake Assist can help you to minimize the
risk of a collision with vehicles or pedestrians or
to reduce the effects of such a collision.
If Active Brake Assist has detected a risk of colli‐
sion, a warning tone sounds and the L dis‐
tance warning lamp lights up in the instrument
cluster.
If you do not react to the warning, autonomous
braking can be initiated in critical situations.
In especially critical situations, Active Br ake
Assist can initiate autonomous braking directly.
In this case, the warning lamp and warning tone
occur simultaneously with the braking applica‐
tion.
If you apply the brake yourself in a critical situa‐
tion or apply the brake during autonomous brak‐
ing, situation-dependent braking assistance
occurs. The brake pressure increases up to max‐
imum full-stop braking if necessary.
