ABS/TC 5.3 system description: Notes
NOTE:
- Traction Control (TC) represents an extension of the ABS system and is a combination of anti-slip control (ASR) and Automatic Brake Differential (ABD).
- TC prevents spinning of the drive wheels when moving off and accelerating. Driving stability and traction are improved over the entire speed range.
- Traction Control (TC) is ready for operation whenever the engine is started.
The TC information light in the instrument panel lights up during a control process and warns that the driving style must be adapted to road conditions.
