General information:

ment cluster fails to come on during the

bulb self-check when switching on the igni-
tion, have the respective bulb checked and
replaced if necessary.

Problem

Possible cause/consequence

Suggested solution

-

The yellow ABS indicator lamp
comes on while driving.

The ABS has detected a malfunction and has
switched off. The BAS and the ESP

®

are also

switched off (see messages in display).

The brake system is still functioning normally
but without the ABS available.

If the ABS control unit is malfunctioning,
other systems such as the navigation
system* or the automatic transmission may
also be malfunctioning.

̈

Continue driving with added caution.
Wheels will lock during hard braking,
reducing steering capability.

̈

Read and observe messages in the
multifunction display (

page 383).

̈

Have the system checked at an autho-
rized Mercedes-Benz Center as soon
as possible.

Failure to follow these instructions in-
creases the risk of an accident.

The charging voltage has fallen below
10 volts and the ABS has switched off.

The battery might not be charged sufficiently.

̈

Switch off electrical consumers that
are currently not needed, e.g. seat
heating*.

̈

If necessary, have the generator (al-
ternator) and battery checked.

When the voltage is above this value
again, the ABS is operational again.
