Deactivating/activating ESP®
WARNING
Never switch off the ESP when you see the
ESP warning lamp flashing in the
instrument cluster. In this case proceed as
follows:
- When driving off, apply as little throttle as
possible.
- While driving, ease up on the accelerator
pedal.
- Adapt your speed and driving style to the
prevailing road conditions.
Failure to observe these guidelines could cause the vehicle to skid. The ESP cannot prevent accidents resulting from excessive speed.
