Driving safety systems
Overview of driving safety systems
In this section, you will find information
about the following driving safety systems:
RABS (Anti-lock BrakingSystem)
(Ypage 47)
RDistance warning function (Ypage 48)
Resp®(Electronic StabilityProgram)
(Ypage 49)
REBD (Electronic Brake forceDistribution)
(Ypage 50)
Important safety notes
If you fail to adapt your driving style or
become distracted, the driving safety sys-
tems can neither reduce the risk of accident
nor override the laws of physics. Driving
safety systems are merely aids designed to
assist driving. You are responsible for the
distance to the vehicle in front, for vehicle
speed and for braking in good time. Always
adapt your driving style to suit the prevail-
ing road, weather and traffic conditions and
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in
front. Drive carefully.
The driving safety systems described only
work as effectively as possible when there is
adequate contact between the tires and the
road surface. Please pay special attention to
the notes on tires, recommended minimum
tire tread depths, etc. (
Ypage 177).
In wintry driving conditions, always use win-
ter tires (M+S tires) and if necessary, snow
chains. Only in this way will the driving
safety systems described in this section work
as effectively as possible. For safety reasons, smart recommends that you
only use snow chains that have been specially
approved for your vehicle by smart, or fine-
link snow chains that are of a corresponding
standard of quality. For more information,
please contact a qualified specialist work-
shop.
ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)
General information
ABS regulates brake pressure in such a way
that the wheels do not lock when you brake.
This allows you to continue steering the vehi-
cle when braking.
The 0025 (Canada only) or 00DF(USA only) abs
warning lamp in the instrument cluster lights up when the ignition is switched on. It goes
out when the engine is running.
Important safety notes
iObserve the "Important safety notes" sec-
tion for driving safety systems (Ypage 47).
When ABS is malfunctioning, other systems,
including driving safety systems, will also
become inoperative. Observe the information
on the ABS warning lamp (
Ypage 132) and
display messages which may be shown in the
instrument cluster (
Ypage 121).
GWARNING
If ABS is faulty, the wheels could lock when
braking. The steerability and braking
characteristics may be severely impaired.
Additionally, further driving safety sys-
tems are deactivated. There is an increased
danger of skidding and accidents.
Drive on carefully. Have ABS checked imme-
diately at a qualified specialist workshop.
abs works from a speed of about 4 mph (6 km/h),
regardless of road-surface conditions. ABS
works on slippery surfaces, even if you only
brake gently.

Z

XTo switch off:press button0044.
Indicator lamp 0043lights up.
XTo switch on: press button0044.
Indicator lamp 0043goes out.
Starting at a speed of around 4 mph (7 km/h),
the distance warning function warns you if
you rapidly approach a vehicle in front. An
intermittent warning tone will then sound
and the 00BAdistance warning lamp will
light up in the instrument cluster.
XBrake immediately in order to increase the distance from the vehicle in front.
or
XTake evasive action, provided it is safe to
do so.
Due to the nature of the system, particularly
complicated but non-critical driving condi-
tions may also cause the system to display a
warning.
With the help of the radar sensor system, the
distance warning function can detect obsta-
cles that are in the path of your vehicle for an
extended period of time.
Up to a speed of around 45 mph (70 km/h), the
distance warning function can also react to
stationary obstacles, such as stopped or
parked vehicles.
ESP®(Electronic Stability Program)
General notes
iObserve the "Important safety notes" sec-
tion (Ypage 47).
esp
®monitors driving stability and traction,
i.e. power transmission between the tires and the road surface.
If esp
®detects that the vehicle is deviating
from the direction desired by the driver, one
or more wheels are braked to stabilize the
vehicle. The engine output is also modified
to keep the vehicle on the desired course
within physical limits. esp
®assists the
driver when pulling away on wet or slippery
roads. esp
®can also stabilize the vehicle
during braking.
ETS (Electronic Traction System)
iObserve the "Important safety notes" sec-
tion (Ypage 47).
ETS traction control is part of esp
®.
ETS brakes the drive wheels individually if
they spin. This enables you to pull away and
accelerate on slippery surfaces, for example if the road surface is slippery on one side. In
addition, more drive torque is transferred to
the wheel with traction.
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If ESP
®is malfunctioning, ESP®is unable to
stabilize the vehicle. Additionally, fur-
ther driving safety systems are deactiva-
ted. This increases the risk of skidding and
an accident.
Drive on carefully. Have ESP
®checked at a
qualified specialist workshop.
!If you test the parking brake using a brake
dynamometer, switch the ignition off.
Application of the brakes by ESP
®may oth-
erwise destroy the brake system.
When towing the vehicle with the rear axle
raised, observe the notes on esp
®
(Ypage 171).
If the 00E5esp®warning lamp lights up per-
manently, esp®or hill start assist are
unavailable due to a malfunction.
Observe the information on warning lamps
(
Ypage 134) and display messages which may
be shown in the instrument cluster
(
Ypage 121).
iOnly use wheels with the recommended
tire sizes. Only then will esp®function
properly.
Characteristics of ESP®
General information
If the 00E5esp®warning lamp goes out before
the journey begins, esp®is automatically
active.
If esp
®intervenes, the 00E5esp®warning
lamp flashes in the instrument cluster.

Doors
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If children are left unsupervised in the
vehicle, they could:
Ropen the doors, thus endangering other
people or road users.
Rget out and disrupt traffic.
Roperate the vehicle's equipment.
Additionally, children could set the vehi-
cle in motion if, for example, they:
Rrelease the parking brake.
Rshift the automatic transmission out of
park position P or shift manual trans-
mission into neutral.
Rstart the engine.
There is a risk of an accident and injury.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the
SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle.
Never leave children or animals unattended
in the vehicle. Always keep the SmartKey
out of reach of children.
Preferably stow luggage or loads in the lug-
gage compartment. Observe the loading
guidelines (
Ypage 142).

Ypage 47).
Centrally locking or unlocking the
vehicle from the inside
You can centrally lock or unlock the vehicle
from the inside. This can be useful if you wish
to lock the vehicle before pulling away, for
example.
XTo lock: when the vehicle is unlocked, press
button 0043.
The vehicle locks when all the doors and the tailgate are closed. Indicator lamp 0044
lights up.
XTo lock the vehicle from the inside when
exiting the vehicle: remove the SmartKey
from the ignition lock.
XOpen the driver's door.
The front-passenger door and the tailgate
must be closed.
XPress the locking button (Ypage 54).
XClose the driver's door within 5 seconds.
Do not leave the key in the vehicle. You
could otherwise lock yourself out.
The doors, tailgate and fuel filler flap are
locked. The anti-theft alarm system is
primed.

Hazard warning lamps
The hazard warning lamps automatically
switch on if:
Ran air bag is deployed
Rthe vehicle decelerates rapidly from a
speed of above 45 mph (70 km/h) and comes to
a standstill
XTo switch on the hazard warning lamps:
press button0043.
All turn signals flash. If you now switch on
a turn signal using the combination switch,
only the turn signal lamp on the corre-
sponding side of the vehicle will flash.
XTo switch off the hazard warning lamps:
press button 0043.
The hazard warning lamps switch off automat- ically if the vehicle reaches a speed of above
6 mph (10 km/h) again after a full brake appli-
cation.
iThe hazard warning lamps still operate if
the ignition is switched off.
Headlamps fogged up on the inside
Certain climatic and physical conditions
may cause moisture to form in the headlamp.
This moisture does not affect the function-
ality of the headlamp.
