Operation of the differential lock
& WARNING Risk of accident when differen-
tial lock is engaged on a firm surface
If you engage differential locks on a firm and
non-slip surface, you may lose control of the
vehicle.
Always disengage the differential locks
#
immediately on a firm, high-traction sur-
face.
& WARNING Risk of accident due to deacti-
vated driving safety systems
When the differential locks are engaged, ABS,
®
4ETS, ESP
and BAS are deactivated.
Because of this, the wheels can lock while
braking and the braking distance is increased.
Always disengage the differential locks
#
immediately on a firm, high-traction sur-
face.
