Performance enhancement system

Airbrake

The Airbrake enhances the vehicle's driv-
ing stability. It adapts the aerodynamics of
the vehicle to the driving conditions ac-
cording to the speed and the mode set.
This is achieved using a moveable spoiler.
The Airbrake is located at the rear edge of
the trunk lid.
Warning!
When operating the Airbrake, make sure
there is no danger of anyone being harmed
by the Airbrake operation (i.e. raising and
lowering of flap). Be especially careful when
small children are around.

Wet and slippery road surfaces

i
In winter operation, the maximum effective-
G
ness of the Airbrake is only achieved with winter
tires (M+S tires) or snow chains as required.
