Practical hints

What to do if ...

- The yellow ABS indicator

lamp is lit while the engine is

running.

WARNING G

ABS has been deactivated due to a malfunction.

ESP

, ASR and BAS as well as cruise control have

also been deactivated as a result.

The brake system continues to function with the nor-

mal braking effect but with no electronic support.

The wheels could therefore lock up, for example if

the brakes are applied with maximum force.

 Also observe the messages in the dis-

play on vehicles with steering wheel

buttons ( page 489).

 Continue driving, but with even greater

care.

 Have the system checked at an autho-

rized Sprinter Dealer as soon as possi-

ble.

WARNING G

ABS is temporarily unavailable.

Self diagnosis may not have been completed yet.

The brake system is still available with the normal

braking effect.

 Drive on for a distance of more than

13 mph (20 km/h).

ABS is available again if the message

goes out.
