CONTROLS
Dynamic Stability Control
Principle
The Dynamic Stability Control helps to keep
the vehicle on a steady course by reducing
drive power and by brake intervention on indi-
vidual wheels.
General information
The Dynamic Stability Control will detect, e.g.,
the following unstable driving conditions:
▷ Skidding, which can lead to oversteering.
▷ Loss of adhesion of the front wheels, which
can lead to understeering.
Safety information
Warning
The system cannot serve as a substitute for
the driver's personal judgment in assessing
the traffic situation. Based on the limits of
the system, it cannot independently react
to all traffic situations. There is a risk of
accident. Adjust driving style to traffic condi-
tions. Watch the surrounding traffic situation
closely, be ready to take over steering and
braking at any time, and actively intervene
where appropriate.
Warning
When driving with a roof load, e.g., roof bars,
the vehicle's center of gravity is higher. This
increases the risk of the vehicle tipping in crit-
ical driving situations. There may be a risk of
accidents or risk of damage to property. Drive
with roof load only with activated Dynamic
Stability Control.
