Deactivating the ASC+T and ADB

Press the ASC button for at least 3 sec-

onds; the indicator lamps and the yel-

low brake warning lamp come on and

stay on.

The systems for enhancing stability and

traction are deactivated, and there is no

active braking intervention or torque

control.

To maintain vehicle stability,

always drive with the ASC+T acti-

vated whenever possible.<

Reactivating the ASC+T

Press the button again briefly; the indi-

cator lamp or the indicator lamps will go

out. ADB is deactivated.

The laws of physics cannot be

repealed even with ASC+T. It will

always be the driver's responsibility to

drive in a manner that matches road

conditions. This is why you should not

use the additional safety margin the

system provides as an excuse to take

risks.<
