Adaptive Dynamic Brake Control (F0x, F1x)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The adaptive dynamic brake control is a function of the ICM control unit or LDM control unit. The adaptive dynamic brake control is only available on vehicles with Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go function.

The adaptive dynamic brake control provides its greatest benefit in emergency braking situations. When the driver of the vehicle ahead brakes sharply, the ACC sensor detects this situation. Dynamic Brake Control assists in braking in a manner that is most effective in preventing a collision.

The following functions are available:

Pre-filling of the brake system
Adaptation of a number of parameters for the braking functions in the DSC according to the situation
visual warning for the driver on the instrument panel or Head-Up Display in event of an advance warning
visual and acoustic warning for the driver in the event of an acute warning

The adaptive Dynamic Brake Control can be switched on using the corresponding button in the assist system control box.

After the warning function as been switched on, the following can be set using the control center:

Switch prewarning on/off
Adjust the time of the prewarning

This setting has no effect on the time of a warning where the ACC* requests driver intervention or braking.

The adaptive dynamic brake control can also be switched on without activating the ACC Stop & Go function.
