Message Possible causes/consequences and solutions
[Currently Unavailable See
Operator's Manual]ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System), BAS (Brake Assist System), VDC (Vehicle Dynamic Control), and hill start assist are temporarily
unavailable.
Forward Emergency Braking (FEB) may also have failed.
In addition, the,andwarning lights may light up in the combination meter.
Possible causes:
•Self-diagnosis is not yet complete.•The on-board voltage may be insufficient.
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 steering and braking characteristics may be severely affected. The braking distance may increase in an emergency braking
situation.
If VDC is not operational, VDC is unable to stabilize the vehicle. There is an increased danger of skidding and risk of an accident.
Carefully drive on a suitable stretch of road, making slight steering movements, at a speed above 12 MPH (20 km/h). If the display
message disappears, the functions mentioned above are available again.
If the display message continues to be displayed, drive on carefully and have the system checked. It is recommended you visit an
