!
The yellow ABS warning

lamp is lit while the

engine is running.

ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) is deactivated due to a malfunc-

tion. BAS (Brake Assist), ESP

®

(Electronic Stability Program), the

HOLD function, hill start assist, the adaptive brake lights and

ESP

®

trailer stabilization, for example, are therefore also deacti-

vated.

G

WARNING

The brake system continues to function normally, but without the

functions listed above. The wheels could therefore lock if you

brake hard, for example.
The steerability and braking characteristics may be severely affec-

ted. The braking distance in an emergency braking situation can

increase.
If ESP

®

is not operational, ESP

®

is unable to stabilize the vehicle.

There is an increased risk of skidding and an accident.

X

Observe the additional display messages in the multifunction

display.

X

Drive on carefully.

X

Visit a qualified specialist workshop.

If the ABS control unit is faulty, there is also a possibility that other

systems, such as the navigation system or the automatic trans-

mission, will not be available.
