reliably detected, for example.
The Rear Traffic Alert will not always independently bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
Brake support systems
Information on brake support systems
The vehicle is fitted with brake support systems. The systems can support the driver in critical driving
or braking situations. Brake support systems cannot overcome the limits of physics and cannot
always keep the vehicle under control in every single critical driving or braking situation. The driver is
responsible for driving safety
Driving with brake support systems
The brake support systems work when the engine is running. They do not need to be operated
separately.
The brake pedal may pulsate or noises may occur while the brake support systems are regulating.
Continue to apply the necessary amount of brake pressure. Apply the necessary pressure to the
brake pedal consistently. If necessary, steer the vehicle while the brake pedal is depressed.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
ESC helps to reduce the risk of skidding and to improve driving stability in certain driving situations

ESC is always switched on.
Traction control system (TCS)
The TCS reduces the drive output if wheelspin occurs and adapts the drive output to suit road
surface conditions Troubleshooting
hills.
With some equipment levels, the TCS can be switched off in exceptional circumstances Switching
the TCS on and off
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
The anti-lock brake system can prevent the wheels from locking when the brakes are applied up until
the point where the vehicle is nearly stationary and assists the driver in steering the vehicle and
keeping it under control Troubleshooting
Brake assist system
The brake assist system can help to reduce the stopping distance. The brake assist system reinforces
the braking force when the driver depresses the brake pedal quickly in an emergency situation.
If you reduce the pressure on the brake pedal, the brake assist system will switch off the brake
servo.
