Braking
If ABS intervenes during braking, you will
feel the steering wheel vibrate gently and
the brake pedal pulsate.
If ABS intervenes:
\1Continue to depress the brake pedal
firmly until the braking situation is over.
For full brake application:
\1Depress the brake pedal with maxi-
mum force.Brake Assist operates in emergency brak-
ing situations. If you depress the brake
pedal quickly, BAS automatically increases
the brake pressure, thereby reducing the
stopping distance.
\1Keep the brake pedal firmly depressed
until the emergency braking situation is
over.
ABS prevents the wheels from locking.
When you release the brake pedal, the
brakes will work as normal again. BAS is
deactivated.
Vehicles without steering wheel buttons:
There is a malfunction if thek indicator
lamp is permanently lit while the engine is
running (\2page 270).ESP
® monitors driving stability and detects
a tendency of the vehicle to understeer or
oversteer (skidding). ESP
® stabilizes the
vehicle by braking individual wheels, limit-
ing the engine power output, and greatly
assists you when driving on wet or slippery
road surfaces. ESP
® also stabilizes the ve-
hicle when braking.
When ESP
® intervenes, thev warning
lamp in the speedometer flashes.
Warning
G
Always adapt your driving style to the pre-
vailing road and weather conditions, and
maintain an adequately safe distance from
other road users as well as any obstacles on
the road.
If ABS malfunctions, the wheels could lock
when you brake. This means that the steer-
ability of the vehicle is restricted during
braking and the stopping distance may in-
crease. If ABS is deactivated due to a mal-
function, BAS is also deactivated.Brake Assist (BAS)
Warning
G
If BAS malfunctions, the brake system is still
available with the full brake boosting effect.
In an emergency braking situation, however,
the braking force will not be additionally
boosted automatically and the stopping dis-
tance may increase.Electronic Stability Program (ESP
®)

There is a malfunction if the # indicator
lamp is permanently lit while the engine is
running (\2page 272).
If ESP
® malfunctions, engine power output
may be reduced.ASR improves traction for a sustained peri-
od, i.e. the transfer of power from the tires
to the road surface, and thus also improves
the driving stability of the vehicle. ASR as-
sists you when pulling away and accelerat-
ing, especially on smooth and slippery
surfaces.
ASR brakes individual drive wheels and
limits the engine torque to prevent the
drive wheels from spinning. When ASR in-
tervenes, thev indicator lamp in the
speedometer flashes.
If the road surface is not capable of provid-
ing sufficient traction, bearing in mind the
tires, load and gradient, it is not be possi-
ble to pull away smoothly even with ASR.
Vehicles without steering wheel buttons:
There is a malfunction if thek indicator
lamp is permanently lit while the engine is
running (\2page 270).
If ASR malfunctions, engine power output
may be reduced.
Warning
G
Proceed as follows if the v warning lamp
in the speedometer flashes:
\4Do not deactivate ASR under any cir-
cumstances.
\4Only depress the accelerator pedal as
far as necessary when pulling away.
\4Adapt your driving style to suit the pre-
vailing road and weather conditions.
Otherwise, the vehicle could begin to skid.
ESP
® cannot reduce the risk of an accident
if you drive too fast. ESP
® is unable to over-
ride the laws of physics.
!
CAUTION
Only operate the vehicle briefly (maxi-
mum of 10 seconds) on a brake dyna-
mometer. The key must be turned to
position1 in the ignition lock during
this time. You could damage the drive
train or the brake system.
!
CAUTION
Do not operate the vehicle on a roller
dynamometer (for example for perfor-
mance testing). If you wish to operate
the vehicle on a roller dynamometer,
please consult an authorized Sprinter
Dealer beforehand. You could other-
wise damage the drive train or the
brake system.

Constant headlamp mode*
On vehicles with steering wheel buttons,
you can set constant headlamp mode
(\2page 102). This does not apply to coun-
tries in which there is a legal requirement
to use constant headlamp mode.\1Turn light switch to M.
The low-beam headlamps, parking
lamps and license plate lamp are
switched on when the engine is
running.
TheB indicator lamp in the instru-
ment cluster lights up.
Automatic headlamp control*
The parking lamps, low-beam headlamps
and license plate lamp are switched on au-
tomatically when the brightness of ambi-
ent light falls below a predetermined level.\1Turn light switch toU.
The parking lamps are switched on / off
automatically when the key is in posi-
tion 1 (\2page 67) in the ignition lock.
The parking lamps, low-beam head-
lamps and license plate lamp are
switched on / off automatically when
the engine is running, depending on the
ambient light conditions.
Only use manual headlamp mode when
you are driving in countries where driving
with the low-beam headlamps switched on
is required by law.
\1In this case, turn the light switch to
B.
Warning
G
If the light switch is atU:
\4the headlamps could switch off tempo-
rarily due to extreme glare, e.g. from on-
coming traffic
\4the lights do not switch on automatically
in foggy conditions
Set the light switch to B. Otherwise you
are endangering yourself and others.
If it is dark, only turn the light switch from
U toB when the vehicle is stationary.
You could otherwise cause an accident if the
headlamps were to switch off briefly.
Automatic headlamp mode is only a driving
aid. You are responsible for the vehicle’s
lighting at all times.

\3 Instrument clusterYou will find a full overview of the instru-
ment cluster in the “At a glance” section
(\2page 14).The display in the instrument cluster is ac-
tivated when you:
\4open the driver’s door
\4switch on the ignition
\4press the reset button
\4switch on the lights
The display switches off automatically af-
ter approximately 30 seconds if:
\4there is no vehicle lighting switched on
\4the key is in position 0 in the ignition
lock (\2page 67)
iDo not hang any objects (e.g. coats) in
the load compartment. This will help to
prevent the motion detector from inad-
vertently switching on the rear interior
lamps.
