situation permits. If you are not sure that
this is possible, park the vehicle paying
attention to traffic conditions and operate
the equipment when the vehicle is station-
ary.
When using the phone, you must observe the
legal requirements for the country in which
you are currently driving.

G WARNING
Braking performance can be impaired.
There is a risk of an accident.
X Stop the vehicle immediately, paying attention to road and traffic
conditions. Do not continue driving under any circumstances.
X Secure the vehicle to prevent it from rolling away (Y page

X Do not add brake fluid. Adding more will not remedy the malfunc-
tion.
X Consult a qualified specialist workshop. EBD, ABS, ESP Inop‐
erative
+ EBD is unavailable due to a malfunction. ABS, BAS, hill start assist

®
as well as its driving safety systems, for example, are
therefore also unavailable.
ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated and other driving systems could
be automatically deactivated.
G WARNING
The brake system continues to function normally, but without the
functions listed above. The wheels could therefore lock prematurely
if you brake hard, for example.
This causes steerability and braking to be greatly impaired. The
braking distance can increase in emergency braking situations.
If ESP ®
is not operational, ESP ®
will not stabilize the vehicle.
There is an increased risk of skidding and accidents.
X Switch the engine off, wait briefly and start the engine again.

sure Soon An additional warning tone sounds.
The tire pressure in one or more tires has dropped significantly.
G WARNING
Tire pressure that are too low pose the following hazards: R The tires may burst, especially as the load and vehicle speed
increase.
R The tires may wear excessively and/or unevenly, which may
greatly impair tire traction.
R The handling as well as steering and braking characteristics may
be severely affected.
There is a risk of an accident.
X Stop the vehicle without making any sudden steering or braking
maneuvers. Pay attention to the traffic conditions while doing so.
X Secure the vehicle to prevent it from rolling away (Y page

func. The tire pressure in one or more tires has dropped suddenly.
G WARNING
Driving with a flat tire poses a risk of the following hazards: R A flat tire affects the ability to steer or brake the vehicle.
R You could then lose control of the vehicle.
R Continued driving with a flat tire will cause excessive heat build-
up and possibly a fire.
