It may be best to deactivate ESP®in the follow-
ing situations:
Rwhen using snow chains
Rin deep snow
Ron sand or gravel
Roff-road
Spinning the wheelsr esults inacutting action
which providesb etter grip.
Activate ESP
®as soon as the situations descri-
bed above no longer apply. ESP®willo therwise
not be abletos tabilize the vehicle if the vehicle
starts to skid or awheel starts to spin.
!Avoid spinning the driven wheelsf or an
extended period with ESP®deactivated. You
could otherwise damage the drivetrain.
Deactivating/activating ESP®
XTo deactivate: press button:until the
å warning lamp lights up in the instrument
cluster.
XTo activate: press button :until the å
warning lamp goes out in the instrument clus-
ter.
Characteristic swhen ESP®is deactivated
If ESP®is deactivated and one or more wheels
start to spin, the ÷ESP®warning lamp in the
instrument cluster flashes. In such situations,
ESP
®willn ot stabilize the vehicle.
If you deactivate ESP®:
RESP®no longer improves driving stability.
REngine torque is no longer limited and the
drive wheelsa re abletospin.
RTraction control is still activated.
RESP®still providess upport when you brake
firmly.
RMercedes-AMG vehicles: and are driving a
speed at above 62 mph (100 km/h), ESP®still
intervenes when one wheel reaches its grip
limite ven though it is deactivated.
RAll other models: and are driving ataspeed
above 37 mph (60 km/h), ESP®still inter-
venes when one wheel reaches its grip limit
even though it is deactivated.
Mercedes-AMG vehicles: if ESP
®is deactiva-
ted, it is reactivated automatically if you are
driving at aspeed above 62 mph (100 km/h )or
you exceed acertain laterala cceleration.
All other models: if ESP
®is deactivated, it is
reactivated automatically if you are driving at a
speed above 37 mph (60 km/h) or you exceed a certain laterala cceleration.
Trailer stabilization
General information
If yourvehicle/trailer combination begins to
swerve, ESP®assists you in this situation. ESP®
slowst he vehicle down by braking and limiting
the engine outputu ntil the vehicle/trailer com-
bination has stabilized.
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If road and weather conditions are poor,
trailers tabilization willn ot be abletoprevent
the vehicle/trailer combination from swerv-
ing. Trailers with ahigh center of gravity can
tip over before ESP
®can detect this. There is
ar isk of an accident.
Alway sadapt you rdriving style to the prevail-
ing road and weather conditions.
If you rvehicle with trailer( vehicle/trailercom-
bination) begins to lurch, you can only stabilize
the vehicle/trailer combination by depressing
the brake firmly.
Trailer stabilization is active above speedso f
about3 7mph (60 km/h).
ESP
®trailer stabilization does not work if ESP®
