Possible cause
The SBC brake system is in the limp-home
(emergency operation) mode. Consider-
able brake pedal force is required and the
stopping distance is increased.
There is insufficient brake fluid in the reser-
voir.
There are malfunctions, but the SBC brake
system is operating normally.
Suggested solution
Continue driving with added caution.
Adjust driving to be consistent with
reduced braking responsiveness.
Risk of accident! Stop the vehicle
and notify an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center. Do not add
brake fluid! This will not solve the
problem.
Visit an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center as soon as possible.
