Traction control system (TCS)
The warning light
comes on for a few seconds when the ignition is switched
on.
The warning light comes on when driving when a control cycle is activated.
The warning light illuminates permanently if there is a fault in the TCS.
The following text will be displayed in the information display:
Error: traction control (ASR)
The fact that the TCS system operates together with the ABS means that the TCS
warning light will also come on if the ABS system is not operating properly.
If the indicator light
comes on immediately after starting the engine, the TCS
can be switched off for technical reasons. In this case, the TCS can be switched
on again by switching the ignition on and off. If the indicator light goes out, the
TCS is fully functional again.

on again by switching the ignition on and off. If the indicator light goes out, the
