Driving Stability Control Systems - BMW M4 COUPE Owner's Handbook Manual

Driving Stability Control Systems

Vehicle equipment
This chapter describes all standard, national
and special equipment available for the model
series. Therefore equipment which is not in‐
stalled in your vehicle, for example on account
of the selected optional equipment or the
country specification, may also be described
here. This also applies to safety-relevant func‐
tions and systems. Comply with the relevant
laws and regulations when using the corre‐
sponding functions and systems.
Anti-lock Brake System,
ABS
ABS prevents the wheels from locking when
the brakes are applied.
Steering control is retained even in the event
of full braking, thereby enhancing active road
safety.
ABS is ready to operate each time the engine
is started.
Brake assist
When the brake is pressed quickly, this system
automatically applies maximum braking power
assistance. With full braking, this keeps the
braking distance as short as possible. It also
makes full use of the advantages offered by
the Anti-lock Brake System ABS.
The pressure on the brake should be main‐
tained for the duration of the full-braking proc‐
ess.
