Function of ABS
The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) regulates the brake pressure in critical driving situations:
- During braking, e.g. at full brake application or insufficient tire traction, the wheels are prevented from locking.
- Vehicle steerability while braking is ensured.
If ABS intervenes when braking, you will feel a pulsing in the brake pedal. The pulsating brake pedal can be an indication of hazardous road conditions and can serve as a reminder to take extra care while driving.
Functions of Off-road ABS
Off-road ABS is activated automatically when
you select the 
or
drive program.
Off-road ABS is specially adapted for driving offroad:
- The front wheels lock cyclically during braking.
- The braking distance is shortened due to the digging-in effect.
System limits
- Off-road ABS functions at speeds below 25 mph (40 km/h).
- If Off-road ABS intervenes, the ability to steer may be restricted.
