To improve the vehicle's traction when driving with
snow chains, or starting off in deep snow, sand or gravel,
or off-road driving, switch off ESP by pressing the upper
half of the ESP switch. The ESP warning lamp v,
located in the speedometer dial, is continuously
illuminated.
Warning!
ESP should not be switched off during normal
driving other than in circumstances described
above. Disabling of the system will reduce vehicle
stability in standard driving maneuvers.
When the ESP warning lamp is illuminated
continuously, the ESP is switched off.
Adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road
conditions.
With the ESP system switched off, the engine torque
reduction feature is cancelled. Therefore, the enhanced
vehicle stability offered by ESP is unavailable.
Adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road
conditions.
If the ESP is switched off the ABS, BAS and ETS are still
available.
