RACE START
Important safety notes
iRACE START must not be used on normal
roads. RACE START must only be activated
and used on dedicated road circuits, outside
of public road use.
RACE START enables optimal acceleration from a standing start. For this, a suitably high-grip
road surface is required, along with the tires and
vehicle being in proper operating condition.
GWARNING
If you use RACE START, individual tires may
start to spin and the vehicle could skid.
Depending on the selected ESP
®mode, there
is an increased risk of skidding and having an accident. Make sure that no persons, animals
or obstacles are within range of the vehicle.
iObserve the safety notes on driving safety
systems (Ypage 52).
Be sure to read the safety notes and informa-
tion on ESP
®(Ypage 55).
Conditions for activation
You can activate RACE START if:
Rthe doors are closed.
Rthe engine is running and the engine and
transmission are at operating temperature.
This is the case when the oil temperature
gauge in the multifunction display is shown in
white (
Ypage 162).
RESP®is functioning correctly. (Ypage 56)
Rthe steering wheel is in the straight-ahead
position.
