Possible cause/consequence
The battery is malfunctioning.
The electro-hydraulic brake system re-
quires electrical energy and therefore has
only limited operation. Considerably
greater brake pedal force is required and
the stopping distance is increased.
The battery has insufficient voltage.
The brake pads have reached their wear
limit.
Possible solution
Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe
to do so. Adjust driving to be consis-
tent with reduced braking responsive-
ness.
Notify an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center.
Start the engine ( page 49).
Have the brake pads replaced as soon
as possible.
