illuminate in the instrument cluster
together with a corresponding
message in the Driver Information
Centre. The brake system remains
operational but without ABS
regulation.9 Warning

wheels may be liable to lock due
to braking that is heavier than
normal. The advantages of ABS are no longer available. During
hard braking, the vehicle can no longer be steered and may
swerve.
If control indicators u, F , R 3 96
and C 3 96 illuminate, there is a fault
in the braking system. A
corresponding message also
appears in the Driver Information
Centre 3 100. Have the cause of the
fault remedied by a workshop.
