Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)

– BMW 325i

Switch the DSC and ADB off

Hold the DSC button down for at least
3 seconds. The indicator and the yellow
brake warning lamps will remain on
continuously.

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 DSC

switched on whenever possible.

Switch DSC and ADB back on

Press the button again; the indicator
lamps will go out

The laws of physics cannot be
repealed, even with DSC. 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.
When ADB is in its standby mode, DSC
is deactivated; DSC does not intervene
to enhance vehicle stability under these
conditions.
Do not make any modifications to the
DSC system. Allow only authorized
technicians to perform service proce-
dures on the DSC.

Dynamic Brake Control (DBC)

DBC is an integral component of the
DSC system.

The system responds to sudden, high-
intensity applications of force to the
brake pedal by automatically braking
the vehicle with maximum boost to
achieve the shortest-possible braking
distances during "panic stops". This
system exploits all the benefits of ABS.

Do not reduce the pressure exerted
against the brake pedal until the
braking maneuver has been completed.
DBC is deactivated when you release
the brake pedal.
