pressure at the rear wheels to improve
driving stability during braking.There is a malfunction if the

manently lit while the engine is running

(EBV)
Warning
G
If EBV malfunctions, the brake system is
still available with the full brake boosting
effect. However, the rear wheels may
lock, for example if the brakes are applied
with maximum force. You could then lose
control of the vehicle and cause an acci-
dent. Always adapt your driving style to
the change in handling characteristics.
Have the system checked at an autho-
rized Sprinter Dealer as soon as possible.
