start assist, crosswind driving assistance and ESP ® trailer
stabilization are also deactivated, for example.

The brake system continues to function normally, but without the
functions listed above. The wheels could therefore lock if you
brake hard, for example.

affected. 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.
