Brake assist systems
WARNING
You should only activate the Or
oad Mode
or disable the TCS if the experience of the
driver and trac conditions allow it. Danger
of skidding!
●
With the Oroad mode activated, the sta-
bilisation function is limited. In particular, if
the road is too smooth and slippery, the driv-
ing wheels could spin and the vehicle could
skid.
Note
If the TCS is disconnected or “Sport” mode
is sel
ected, the cruise control system will be
switched o.
Troubleshooting
The ABS does not work properly or does
not w
ork at all
The control lamp switches on yellow.
●
Contact a specialised workshop. The vehi-
cl
e’s brakes still work without the ABS.
The ESC or TCS is regulating
The contr
ol lamp flashes yellow.
ESC fault
The contr
ol lamp switches on yellow. The ESC
has been switched o.
There is a fault or defect.
●
Turn o the ignition and turn it on again.
●
If possible, drive for a short distance at 15-20
km/h (9-12 mph).
●
If the control lamp
is still on, go to a speci-
alised w
orkshop.
The brake assist systems make noises
When the described brake assist systems inter-
vene, you may hear noises.
WARNING
●
When the ignition is switched on, the sta-
t
us of the brake system and the brake assist
functions are automatically checked. The
control lamps on the instrument cluster light
up briefly and then go out. Any indicator
lamp that remains on indicates a fault. Seek
qualified technical assistance immediately.
●
If the brake system warning light
comes
on t
ogether with the
control lamp, the ABS
r
egulation function may not work and the
rear wheels may lock relatively quickly when
braking. This can lead to loss of control of
the vehicle! If possible, slow down and drive
slowly and carefully to the nearest specialist
workshop to have the brake system inspec-
ted. During this journey, avoid heavy braking
and any sudden manoeuvres.
●
If the control lamp
does not go out, or
comes on whil
e driving, it means that the ABS
is not working properly. The vehicle can only
be stopped using normal braking (without
ABS). In this case the protective ABS func-
tion will not be available. Go to a specialised
workshop as soon as possible.
