Functions of ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)
ABS regulates the brake pressure in critical driv‐
ing situations:
During braking, e.g. at maximum full-stop
R
braking or insufficient tire traction, the
wheels are prevented from locking.
Vehicle steerability while braking is ensured.
R
If ABS intervenes when braking, you will feel a
pulsing in the brake pedal. The pulsating brake
pedal can be an indication of hazardous road
conditions and can serve as a reminder to take
extra care while driving.

System limits
ABS is active from speeds of approx. 3 mph
R
(5 km/h).
ABS may be impaired or may not function if a
R
malfunction has occurred and the yel‐
low ! ABS warning lamp lights up contin‐
uously in the instrument cluster after the
engine is started.

Functions of Off-road ABS
Off-road ABS is specially adapted for driving off-
road:
The front wheels lock cyclically during brak‐
R
ing.
The braking distance is shortened due to the
R
digging-in effect.
System limits
Off-road ABS functions at speeds below
R
25 mph (40 km/h).
If Off-road ABS intervenes, the ability to steer
R
may be restricted.
Function of BAS
The Brake Assist System (BAS) supports your
emergency braking situation with additional
brake force.
If you depress the brake pedal quickly, BAS is
activated:
BAS automatically boosts the brake pres‐
R
sure.
BAS can shorten the braking distance.
R
ABS prevents the wheels from locking.
R
The brakes will function as usual once you
release the brake pedal. BAS is deactivated.
