afforded. The ABS cannot prevent acci-

dents, including those resulting from

excessive speed in turns, following

another vehicle too closely, or hydroplan-

ing. Only a safe, attentive, and skillful

driver can prevent accidents. The capabil-

ities of an ABS equipped vehicle must never

be exploited in a reckless or dangerous

manner which could jeopardize the user’s

safety or the safety of others.

Electronic Stability Program (ESP

)

Your vehicle is equipped with the Elec-

tronic Stability Program (ESP

). The ESP

is operational as soon as the engine is

running and it monitors the vehicle’s trac-

tion (force of adhesive friction between

the tires and the road surface) and han-

dling.

The ESP

recognizes when a wheel is spin-

ning or if the vehicle starts to skid. By

applying brakes to the appropriate wheel

and by limiting the engine output, the

ESP

works to stabilize the vehicle. The

ESP

is especially useful while driving off

and on wet or slippery road surfaces. The

ESP

also stabilizes the vehicle during

braking and steering maneuvers.

The ESP

warning lamp ÷ in the instru-

ment cluster flashes when the ESP

engaged.

The ESP

warning lamp ÷ in the instru-

ment cluster comes on when you switch on

the ignition. It goes out when the engine is

running.

Depending on the driving situation, the

ESP

reduces the speed

selectively brakes individual wheels

equalizes the speed of the driven wheels

stabilizes the vehicle when braking

assists you in evasive maneuvers on all

roads

WARNING

If the ESP

warning lamp ÷ in the

instrument cluster flashes, proceed as fol-

lows:

While driving off, apply as little throt-

tle as possible.

While driving, ease up on the accelerator

pedal.

Adapt your speed and driving style to the

prevailing road conditions.

Failure to observe these guidelines could

cause the vehicle to skid.

The ESP

cannot prevent accidents result-

ing from excessive speed.

WARNING

The ESP

cannot prevent the natural laws of

physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can

it increase the traction afforded. The

ESP

cannot prevent accidents, including

those resulting from excessive speed in

turns, or hydroplaning. Only a safe, atten-

tive, and skillful driver can prevent acci-

dents. The capabilities of an ESP

equip-

ped vehicle must never be exploited in a

reckless or dangerous manner which could

jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of

others.

Because the ESP

operates automati-

cally, the engine must be turned off

(ignition switched off) when the parking

brake is being tested on a brake test

dynamometer. Active braking action

through the ESP

may otherwise seriously

damage the brake system which is not

covered by the smart Limited Warranty.

The ESP

will only function properly if

you use wheels of the recommended tire

size (Y page 216).
